The Egyptian government has recently adopted a development of the National Urban policy (NUP) with the aim of increasing cities' ability in accommodating the growing population by making them more dense and compact. This comes through some policies and approaches which achieve the optimal use of different areas within cities to contain urban growth and its requirements. One of the most important of these policies (infill development policy) which exploit the land vacant, open areas and all possibilities, whether owned by the state or individuals to cover the development' needs. However, the application of this policy in cities faced a number of negative aspects such as the decreasing in the quality of life, reduction of open areas, selection of an inappropriate infill development' type and using unsuitable land plots for development process. Therefore, this paper aims to identify the necessary integrated principles for using infill development policy in developing residential areas and containing its urban requirements in sustainable way. To achieve this goal, the paper uses the descriptive analytical approach in reviewing the theoretical framework of infill development policy about its types and principles. In addition to testing the application of these principles in one selected area (Ezbet El Lemon) by using ArcGIS geographic information systems and statistical programs to find the degree of achievement urban containment through using infill policy and identify the main challenges which it faced. Also the paper polls the experts' opinions about the relative importance of infill' principles and how to face their challenges. Finally ,the results of theoretical and application framework help in suggesting the future infill principles for containing current and future urban needs in residential areas. 

The overall objective of this study was to investigate urban infill development policies as a good solution to counteract urban sprawl and protect the peri-urban area of Ardabil in Northwestern Iran. In this context, we used a mixed methodology (two quantitative methods). Landsat imagery, including a patchy Landsat ETM+ for the year 2000 and a Landsat 8 for the year 2020, was used to map and assess land use to investigate sprawl and land-use change, and ArcGIS was used to investigate the potential for infill development in this city. The results show that between 2000 and 2020, 967 hectares of peri-urban land was lost to urban expansion. CA-Markov projections also showed that 452 hectares will be lost by 2030. The assessment of the city’s internal capacity for infill development showed that more than 999 hectares of land within the city are suitable to support this strategy and provide the land needed for urban expansion over the next decade. Finally, the study of the city’s master plan, which applies to all Iranian cities, discovered that there is a lack of adequate outlook regarding the amount of land available for future urban development, leading to misuse of urban land and urban sprawl in Iranian cities, suggesting that an infill development strategy could be a good way to address this issue.
