CITY LEVEL INTERFACE

• The Delhi Master Plan proposed arterial roads which, while providing city level accessibility, enclosed the habitation to make it an urban island.

• These roads generated open spaces on the edge of the built fabric which have become areas of unregulated urban growth.

• The urban habitation interfaces with the city at only a few places through vehicular traffic junctions.

INFERENCES AND FINDINGS

INFERENCES AND FINDINGS

• This is the heart of the community which connects and encourages interaction between inhabitants and the rest of the city.

• It is a major source of revenue for the local people and can be considered as the urban public face of Lado Sarai.

• This zone mostly consist of Mixed-use mid-rise blocks with have commercial spaces in the lower levels and office or residential spaces.

• The physical infrastructure of this zone is also not in good state the road is previous used as the major route to connect Mehrauli with badarpur hence have organic development along the road.

• The Mixed-Use building is planned in this zone which can be design to enhance and counter the challenges of the infrastructure.

• This edge of Lado Sarai has three distinct built environment conditions.

• The First one is the section containing a bus depot with a CNG station, which is not in use currently.

• The entrance of the depot is located very near a major traffic junction thereby creating conflict with traffic movement.

• The second condition is in the middle which has a public garden from where the local people access MB Road. It consists of the DDA Park, a tomb protected by the State Archaeological Department and parking space.

• The third condition has a boundary wall around vacant DDA land allotted to Aurobindo College which is used as a garbage dumping ground.

• Right of Way of MB Road is mentioned as 60 m in the DDA Zonal Plan, but only about 40 m is currently in use as a road. It acts as an arterial road and carries through traffic towards Faridabad.

INFERENCE AND FINDINGS

• The Phirni Road edge of the village is most active as it opens up on to the village bypass. It has the maximum activities as Old MB Road connect the community with the city through this road.

• There are small streets like Chowdhary Prem Singh Marg and many other pedestrian connections opening on to Phirni Road.

• The street is active due to the vegetable market, MCD Primary School, vehicular parking spaces, entrance to the DDA children’s park and DDA housing.

• The Phirni road have being used in illegal parking which leads to traffic conflict point.

• On the other side Phirni road consists of major city level green spaces like Qutub Golf course and DDA park which invite hight no. Of visitors which face parking issues due to absence of designated parking spaces. This also provide a opportunity to generate revenue and have a scope of commercial spaces which help the Micro-economic.

• Alot of street vendors are also their which are having illegal encroachment of phirni road and create congestion points we can plan a designated market place for them to enhance the urban design of the zone.

• The infrastructure also need improvement the road have a opportunity for construction of designated cycle tracks and Pedestrian Trails due to the presence of neighbourhood green areas.

• The site for Museum, School extension and community centre is also located in this zone hence the Architecture design and site planning should help to reduce the Zonal issues.

• Site also have a informal market and illegal parking at the site of museum which should be relocated and planned.

• Public park is also the part of the development to be designed with UG parking space to counter parking issue of the zone have also help to generate revenue.
