Foreword
held under Hon ble LG, Delhi on 2.6.2009 at 10.30 a.m. in Raj Niwas on "Principles, Applications & Implementation of Transit Oriented Development", the following decisions/ observations were made by the Hon’ble yLG:
• Transit Oriented Developmentappears to be the future objective for the development of the city to encourage the use of public g ptransportation and pedestrian movement - ensuring energy conservation and environmental upgradation. He desired that UTTIPEC take a leading role for i iti ti thinitiating the process.
• A pilot scheme should be taken up immediately for design and implementation along the principles and application procedures di d i th tidiscussed in the meeting.
• It was also pointed out that a lot of land area is currently in possession of various government bodies near Metro Stations and therefore may be considered for infilltherefore may be considered for infill TOD development and densification. Corresponding improvements in these central zones may also be explored.

• Due to the location of ITO and CP at the intersection of major E-W and N-S movements through the city, the area often becomes a “bottleneck point” for urban Mobility

Benefits of Frequent Bridges in Centre City Bridges in Centre City Areas:
• Greater Connectivity, dispersal of traffic rather than concentration on a concentration on a few bottleneck bridges.
• Frequency of bridges allows narrower width, making them more making them more into multi-modal streets, rather than like freeways.

Inferences from Social Survey of Anna Nagar and Sanjay Colony:Demographics:• Average age of people in the ITO is 23 years; 50% people above 19 yrs of age• Male-Female Ratio is almost equal.
Work/ Commute:• Most people Work within <5km of ITO core area.• Time taken for commute to work is < 30 mins.• Most of them walk (43%) or take bus (50%) to work. • 4% Cycle to work.
Household:• Average household size is 4.5.• 76% families live in 1-room homes.• Household income for most is approx. Rs. 3000-5000 per month• Number of children per household is 2.6 average.• Most people live in kuccha homes.• There is provision of common toilets, but most people don’t like to pay or use them due to cleanliness issues.
Unit Sizes:• 75% unit size = 12-15 sq.
m.• No parking provision
required.• Approx. 500 homes.
Social Infrastructure + Amenities – to be based on population density, not area:
• Toilets should not be shared between more than 4-6 families.
Home design:
• Should have courtyards and other social interaction areas, also used for women and children.

PARADIGM SHIFT:
Design PrinciplesDesign Principles
3232
Principle 1 Manage Congestion
Design Principles
Principle 1: Manage CongestionCongestion is a fact of life in successful urban places. By definition, a place that supports a great concentration of economic and social activities within a pedestrian-scaled environment is going to be congested.
Principle 2: Create Balanced/Active StreetsCity Centre streets must balance the needs of pedestrians, bicycles, transit and the automobile in creating an attractive and viable urban core. Downtown streets are for People first, Commercial second, and th h T ffi thi dthrough Traffic third.
Principle 3: Consider Streets as PlacesThe MPD 2021 envisions the Metropolitan City Centre and Indraprastha as a vital focus of city life, and as
i d ti ti O Cit C t t t th t i t t d i bli da primary destination. Our City Centre streets are the most important and pervasive public space and common ground.
Principle 4: Create Interactive StreetsU b S h hi h h bli lif f h i i dUrban Streets are the stages on which the public life of the community is acted out.Streets must be designed to enable interaction with people and uses at the edges. This creates a sense of liveliness as well as safety through “eyes on the street”.
Principle 5 Foster Pride of Place
33
Principle 5: Foster Pride of PlaceVisible caring and upkeep are critical to the vitality of urban street life.

“The development of the Metropolitan City Centre in harmony with the existing urban form of the classical Connaught Circus and multi-storeyed buildings in its extensionis envisaged to bring in visual integration in the overall urban form. The areas included in the Metropolitan City Centre would be Connaught Place & Extension …….Gole Market, Mandi House, Pragati Maidan, Indraprastha Estate.An integrated plan incorporating urban design, landscape, traffic and transportation schemes, safe pedestrian walkways, parking areas, recreational and cultural areas etc. is to be prepared for its development.” (p31)
11.1.1 METROPOLITAN CITY CENTRE (p65)Connaught Place and ExtensionsThe various proposals are:(i) Detailed Urban Design and Landscape Schemes should be prepared to integrate MRTS stations, safe pedestrian walkways, parking areas, recreational and cultural areas, etc.(ii) The intermediate public transport such as monorail, battery operated / high capacity buses, sky buses should be introduced to increase the mobility within the City Centre.(iii) Activities such as viewing gallery, open-air theatres, amusement parks, mini-golf courses/sports activities, food plazas etc. should be introduced to make them more attractive even after working hours.(iv) The envelope, FAR, architectural features of the buildings in the Connaught Circus -Connaught Place should be retained as existing.(v) Continuity of the sidewalks should be maintained in terms of the width, surface treatment, curb cuts, tree and street furniture locations, for the pedestrians and disabled.(vi) Use of alternative renewable sources of energy should be encouraged for new buildings (especially those of commercial or institutional nature), traffic signals and public signage, etc.(a) … the existing height shall be maintained and FAR could be achieved by increasing proportionate ground coverage.

Principle 01 : Connectivity
Network causes all traffic to “collect” and concentrate on a few major streets.
a. An interconnected Street Hierarchical Network allows people to make short trips on foot, p ,cycle/rickshaw or even car, along smaller neighborhood roads - while larger city level through-trips are mainly limited to the Arterial Roadsmainly limited to the Arterial Roads.
Collector Streets should therefore be replaced by Connector Streets.

Tilak Bridge Station offers an opportunity to tap more passengers on the Ring Rail System and could also be seen as an important transit node
Pragati Maidan Metro

Tilak Bridge Station can be moved south to enhance linkages to Metro corridor. The integrated transit stop would act as a transit gateway to the district
The new multi modal station would provide opportunities to connect Pragati Maidan and ITO complex into one urban district providing seamless pedestrian realm

Environmental Sustainability Criteria: AIR – WATER – ENERGY – WASTE
DECENTRALIZED INFRASTRUCTURE: Whole Systems Thinking…• As per MPD 2021: All new buildings in the City Centre Area must be Energy Efficient.
• Energy efficiency and re-use of waste heat, water and waste should be prioritized at a district level, for the proposed new development.
• Some strategies include:
• Use of rat-trap bonds in building construction
• Orientation to ensure minimum 4-6 hours of daylight on the longest winter day.
• Reuse of grey water for sanitation and irrigation.
• Local Storm & Natural Waste water management
• DECENTRALIZED Infrastructure (as desired in MPD 2021) is feasible only at high population densities and mixed use districts.

Environmental Sustainability Criteria: NOISE
MPD 2021:Noise is emerging as a major pollutant and irritant as well as a constant source of disturbance and health hazards.Against a permissible level of 50-60 dB (A), the sound level in Indian cities often exceeds 80 dB (A)often exceeds 80 dB (A).
HOW MUCH IS TOO MUCH ?• Damage to health begins at 75 db.• Hearing damage begins at 90 db and can be permanent with one exposure of
149
120 db or more.• The average decibel levels exposed to 70-86 db; where damage to physical,
psychological and communicative health begins
