Preface

Table of contents The Development Plan Studio allows us to study and explore different approaches of planning, zoning and regulations, to prepare a plan that is robust yet adaptable, and

integrating various sectors such as land use,

transport, infrastructure, housing, economy, environment etc. and identify various projects, estimate cost, identify revenue sources, and monitoring mechanism to ensure maximum implementation of the plan. I am grateful for the opportunity of being part of this studio which

Permissible land-use • The area Sholinganallur is developed due to the presence of IT corridor. Industrial, Mixed-use, • Though the permissible land use seems to be industrial, the on ground situation Primary Residential differs with several commercial complexes and high rise residential apartments consuming higher FSI than permitted. Few lakes that have been demarcated has been encroached by residential towers.

Main objective of the Second Master Plan is to decongest the GCC area by increasing the peri-urban density which is achieved by creating job center outside city limits. The development is mainly catalyzed by the transit and road network by there is no incentive proposed for development in TOZ. Mainly villages along OMR, ECR and GST Road shows a higher growth rate. Master plan focuses on the the slow and medium growth settlements to attain higher growth rates so as to take up likely population increase in forthcoming years with a balanced development reducing the concentration of activities in the core city. There is no focus on heritage conservation throughout the Master Plan. Individual

COMMUTE

- Densifying the core with planned growth towards the periphery. -Co-ordinated planning approach. -Amplifying growth along the corridors and connecting the growth centers to the core. - RAH overlay zone with enhanced PT Network as an incentive for more affordable housing.

- Growth centers to be connected with the core city for efficiency. -Ring-radial linkage are to intensified to support the concentric growth of the city. -PT Network has to be made robust connecting it the Growth centers as well.

-Logistics to be planned as a robust support to industrial sector -Promotion of new emerging economy and linking them together -Creating and planning financial centers and employment magnets.

Evolution of concept from individual proposal

The VISION is to make Ahmedabad - Gandhinagar a prime twin metropolis and conurbation based on market driven growth. It will facilitate to create a preferred investment destination, to cater the diversifying economy, make it more sustainable and livable along with building a global city with robust regional connectivity.
