And so the city is popularly known as the Cultural capital of Tamilnadu and also as the city of Temples and Festivals.

Sporadic Planning

Inconsiderate Enactment

Planning in Madurai is inconsistent. The first master plan was in 1960,1992 and 2002. The regulations is not in same phase as master plan, MCA 1971, revision in 2010 and now it is state level combined rules - TNCDRBR, 2019

When the rules have become common on state wide, certain native rules are abolished. One such rule is the height restriction around Meenakshi Temple. The heights were in perspective. Visual connectivity to the temple

Commerical

Madurai City has an active core closely integrated with a vibrant mix of residential, retail and office developments located along Bypass road. The land market and workforce infill linked in to the convinent public bus transport system stops demand the street to be more efficient and safe network of pedestrian friendly paths. As the core city is more populous, highly congested and serves as the commercial district of the city, this street could serve as a draw to the communities as a alternate commercial district.

The node is planned with high rise commercial, which would increase the land value and also makes the junction active and vibrant. 200m is chosen considering the walk-ability parameter. Followed by that along road, mid rise mixed use zone is provided, as the 36m road has a 18m diversion as canal road. The other plots are zoned under residential mixed use.

Regulations

Part c

c1.Need for Regulations Form Based Regulations Form-based codes address the relationship between building facades and the public realm, the form and mass of buildings in relation to one another, and the scale and types of streets and blocks. The regulations and standards in form-based codes are presented in both words and clearly drawn diagrams and other visuals. They are keyed to a regulating plan that designates the appropriate form and scale of development, rather than only distinctions in land-use types.

Built to Line This approach contrasts with conventional zoning focus on the micromanagement and segregation of land uses, and the control of development intensity through abstract and uncoordinated parameters (e.g., FAR, PPH, setbacks, parking ratios). Ultimately, a form-based code is a tool; the quality of development outcomes depends on the quality and objectives of the community plan that a code implements. Street and building types or mix of types), build-to lines, number of floors, and percentage of built site frontage specified are dealt in form based codes Building integrated with shaded walkway 13

Group Synthesis d1. Suggestions and comments by peers Comment-1

The zones changes in the same street, with same character and ROW. The presence of Canal road is not explained clearly .It can be graphically or by some medium can be explained.

The node is planned with high rise commercial, which would increase the land value and also makes the junction active and vibrant. 200m is chosen considering the walk ability parameter. Followed by that along road, mid rise mixed use zone is provided, as the 36m road has a 18m diversion as canal road. The other plots are zoned under residential mixed use.

Comment-2

If the plot has both the side roads which were missed in the plans, firstly, please add them and on which side would the colonnade walkway be allowed, please specify. Plots having roads on two sides of the plots, for that case - How margins need to be considered is missing. It could be added. 25m 3m 3m

Comment-3

OSR amalgamation concept could be explained. If the arched Walkway is continuous and ramps are to be provided without destructing the walkway, please explain how regulations could solve it

OSR amalgamated as a common green space, which shall be an integration with arcaded walkway Note: •For corner junction plots, the basement ramps shall be provided at lower hierarchy roads. •At locations, where vehicular access breaks the arcaded walkway, Speed calming materials and elements should be used. •Basement could be preferably used for parking only.

Part d

Group Synthesis d2. Learnings and Outcomes d2.1 Learnings

Intensity Based categorization in building The contribution of each zone in a building. It is defined with percentage of built up area

Basement regulations Additional regulations liberalizing the expansion of basement to the plot size

Sky Terrace A green breathing floor breaking the solid mass of building and intensifying the height instead of FSI

Multiple units in one plot FMOS - Front Margin Open space Which is an alternate term for open space reservation or Common plot d2.1 Discussions How to achieve 80m height with 2.03.0 FSI?? The question turned out to be debate cum discussion where we tried to understand the relation between plot size with ground coverage, feasibility of development by observing the road widths. Also, questioning the need of such lean towers in every plot. We came up to for a plot of 10000 sq.m with FSI of 3.0, for office purpose where on the surrounding context one floor would cater to 1000-1500 sq.m per floor. Hence we would be able to achieve 20 floors with 3.5 clear height with 10% ground coverage. 70m of permissible height is achieved.

How to achieve required parking in on site and basement ? For an building with 10000 sq.m built up area and plot area of 2000 sq.m. The requirement of parking according to the regulations for office use comes up to 200 cars and 200 two wheelers, the area required would be 4000 sq.m including the circulation. Giving a restriction of 2 basement would give 1000 sq.m in basement-1 and 2000 sq.m in basement-2. Hence on-site parking should be provided to cater to the requirement. Similar calculations were discussed for different built use.

Requirement of front margins and OSR. In the current cases, many development regulations cover the topic of leaving front margin and its mandatory. The discussion was mainly on the use of those margins and could be compromised and made build able benefiting the owner. The common plot or open space reservations could be made flexible by making a previous natural ground for rain water seepage and in bigger plots, OSR locations could be amalgamated and used as a public realm.
