The research approach employed was to view the developmental situation from 4 levels of study, both from macro a nd micro perspectives. At the first two macro level, (1) the emergence of Rangsit is considered in t he context of evolution and c hanging metropolitan structure of the entire Bangkok Metropolitan Region; and (2) actual growth trend and patter n in Northern Corridor, were reviewed from related literature and secondary data.
