Over the past few decades, sustainable urban development has become one of the most important and influential theoretical approaches in urban policy. Sustainable development means to supply the needs of the current generation without harming the needs of the next generation. Therefore, with this approach, any urban intervention and construction of urban projects should be prudent and based on this view. Undoubtedly, conducting studies on" ATAF" is an essential step towards achieving these important goals. The present study evaluates the effects and socio-cultural consequences (ATAF) of Saeed Abad Highway in district quantitative and qualitative methods (interview and observation) has been used in the study. Research data have been collected through individuals and residents of the highway area who are likely to be affected by the Saeed Abad project. The theoretical approach of the research is Lefebvre's theory of the social dimensions of urban spaces. The research findings show that Saeed Abad urban project, like any other projects, has positive consequences and effects such as facilitating public transportation, and negative consequences such as dissatisfaction of project opponents, psychological pressure on residents, creating hangouts for drug dealers, destruction of green space and gardens and increase of environmental pollution.

Moving on the path to comprehensive development requires its own requirements, prerequisites and grounds. Social capital, of course, accelerates the achievement of development indicators as a facilitator of cooperation and participation. Recent decades of research show social capital is an important variable for explaining the economic and social spatial differences. The authors of this research began their work with the main hypothesis of the relationship between social capital and the cities development. In order to test the hypothesis, based on researches done in relation to the cities development level in Hamedan province, two superior cities and two more deprived cities, which are Hamedan and Tuyserkan, at high levels of development, Kaboordan and Faminin at low levels , Have been selected. The lack of research on women and city and neglect of this stratum as half of the active population of society encouraged researchers to focus on this stratum. In fact, this research has been carried out with the aim of evaluating the women social capital and its relation with the cities level of development in Hamedan province. The research is based on a quantitative
strategy and it applies a documentary-survey method. The tool for collecting information on social capital assessment of women is a questionnaire that assesses social capital in four dimensions of the network of relations and social relationships, trust, social interaction and aid activities. The sample size is 384 by using the Cochran formula. The results of the research indicate a significant and positive correlation between women social capital and urban development. Meanwhile, the significant and positive correlations between the dimensions of the network of social relations and social affairs and the supporting activities with the ranking of urban development were also confirmed. There is also a significant relationship between women social capital and their social, economic and mental status.
