Approach to Vision

4 ISSUES

PERCEPTION STUDY

• Congestion near the interchange • Maintenance of toilets in slums • SWM and collection issues in slums • Accessibility to Kankaria and canal garden • Sindhi market • L.G congestion due to absurd road closing

• Kankaria • Proximity of Maninagar railway station • Presence of canal garden • Accessibility to Kankaria and canal garden • Sindhi market • L.G hospital

On street parking and encroachment

Congestion

Underutilized recreational spaces due to lack of access

Vision: We envision Maninagar to be an in town- mixed use neighborhood, offering a good quality of life and good opportunities for recreation.

Slums

All the residents near the Canal Garden have good access to the Canal Road as most of the local roads of societies are well connected to the road.

The existing 9m road is in use for vehicular movement. We see that the traffic flow is not much compared to other roads. Some parts of the Canal Garden stretch is used for various purposes like yoga classes, children play area etc. whereas some parts are vacant and not put to any use.

Have a tree boundary instead of a concrete boundary to integrate it with the street and also allow access from all points. Pedestrianize the 9m road on weekends to take an initiative to create a different character of space.

There is a physical concrete boundary presently and there are very less access points to enter the garden stretch.

The entire garden stretch is not utilised to its potential. Hence it becomes a very monotonous open space. The 7m road which is not in vehicular use can be used in a better way rather than being encroached bye slums. The physical boundary of garden hinders access for the users.

Proposed

The existing 7m road is not in use for vehicular movement. Some parts of the road are encroached by the slums (12 units) as they have settled on road.

Permanently pedestrianize the 7m road which is not put to use for vehicular movement to create recreational space for people.

Weekdays

Weekend (Sunday)

There can be designated cycle track which is shady and safe. To change the monotonous character of the garden stretch which is not out to use presently can be used for: • • • •

Botanical Gardens Green house Urban Agriculture Composting of organic waste

Interventions to support the proposed projects The encroached slums on the 7m road can be relocated to an open public land near Uttamnagar Garden, a part of which is already occupied by slums. Total area of public land=35400 sq. m. Area occupied by exiting slums= 5000 sq.m. When the 9m road is pedestrianized the traffic can be diverted on Natwarlal Raval Marg road which is parallel to the Canal road. .

Such structures can be used as obstructions to block the vehicles from entering the pedestrianised street. To have an undisturbed access to the Canal Garden for the residents even after future development takes place a regulation to provide optimum access to the Garden will be given.

Street Vending

Plots – easy and fast negotiation and redevelopment Regulations : • At the time of redevelopment, out of the front margin,2.25 m will be used for widening of the roads • Restricting the building height in the recreational zone up to 9 m for a scenic landscape • Restricting on – street parking on these roads and regulating private parking spaces inside one’s individual plot boundary

Public Park

Phase 1 : This road is likely to become a public road fastest as the nearby plots are easiest to negotiate. Apart for this road, other two will act as pedestrian friendly public streets that would provide easy accessibility to Kankaria.

Widening of the roads and presence of a city level recreational amenity could also trigger commercial or mixed use development along the 24 m road. This would bring in activity to the existing 24 m dead street. With no boundary walls, a free active plaza space could form with a lot of opportunities of recreation for all age groups To be Isanpur Road

With residential development coming up after redevelopment, the streets with act as pedestrian friendly green walkable paths which will add on to the quality of life of people, their accessibility to recreational spaces and the safe mobility
