Urbanization has significant impact on socio-economical character, infrastructure requirement and transportation system in most of metropolitan cities in India. Geographical setting and land use patterns are also affected at the same time. Eventually these factors do influence on physical and social infrastructure in respect of purpose in spatial way as socio economic characteristics and settlement pattern differ from zone- zone. This paper focuses on these issues with reference to a fast growing metropolitan city of Surat in Gujarat. Spatial infrastructure characteristics and their assessment in various center zone of Surat city are discussed in length.
