1 INTRODUCTION
WARD 85- DODDANEKUNDI, BANGALORE
THE BLUE GREEN LINE
An inter-city railway line runs from North to South On the Western side of the ward. In the recent couple of years, the Chinnapanahalli main road that runs adjacent to it has seen a tremendous increase in traffic, as it is an alternative route that leads to ITPL from Outer Ring Road. Inter-city railway lines often form physical borders as well as social barriers in a city. Open spaces along the corridor become fear locales, and in this case vacant spaces along the line have been used to dump garbage. The revitalisation of this corridor is essential to weave it into the urban fabric
1. Commercial land adjacent to railway track which may be subject to disturbance
5. Very few parks and open spaces that cater to this area
2. Dense traffic congestion along main road during peak hours in the morning and evening due to: (i) Ill-maintained road (ii) Usage of narrow road by school buses
3. Dumping of garbage along the railway track
4. Jaywalking of pedestrians across railway track, causing accidents and even deaths

6. Irregular water supply in residential areas along railway track in Doddanekundi as well as Marathahalli
6. Open spaces along railway line can be used for large scale rainwater harvesting and supply systems, to overcome irregular water supply problems in respective areas
5. Cycling paths/ parks can be made on the edge of the railway corridor which will also serve as buffer zones
2. Revitalisation of Chinnapanahalli main road by provision of school bus bays for pick-up/ drop-off. Accomodation of properly enginereed speed bumps at regular intervals on the road.
3. Waste management bins and awareness
4. Allotment of specific safe spots for pedestrian crossing, by using vegetation and installations to prevent pedestrian access.

THE BLUE GREEN LINE
1. Commercial land adjacent to railway track according to 2031 land use map, should be reconsidered
Open space (area demarkated in green) that can be used as a rainwater harvesting park. Rajakaluve on the northern side can also be integrated with rain gardens

OPPORTUNITIES: 1. PROVISION OF PARKING AND BUS BAYS IN CHINNAPANAHALLI 2. PROVISION OF SAFE PEDESTRIAN MOVEMENT FACILITIES ALONG RAILWAY LINE 3. ESTABLISHMENT OF PARKS AND OPEN SPACES AROUND RESIDENTIAL AREA 4. POSSIBLY USING WATER FROM LAKES TO SUPPLY TO RESIDENTIAL AREAS
WEAKNESS: 1. DENSE CONGESTION AT CHINNAPANAHALLI RAILWAY CROSSING 2. BADLY ENGINEERED SPEEDBREAKERS ON MAIN ROAD AT IRREGULAR INTERVALS 3. NO PUBLIC PARKS IN MARATHAHALLI RESIDENTIAL AREA 4. RESIDENCES CONSTRUCTED VERY CLOSE TO RAILWAY LINE 5. DUMPING OF GARBAGE AROUND RAILWAY LINE 6. DODDANEKUNDI LAKE IS HIGHLY POLLUTED 7. BOTH DODDANEKUNDI AND MARTHAHALLI RECEIVE INSUFFICIENT WATER SUPPLY
THREATS: 1. STREET WALLS AROUND RAILWAY LINE FORM FEAR LOCALES 2. BUILDINGS CLOSE TO RAILWAY LINE CAN GET STRUCTURALLY DAMAGED DUE TO TRAIN VIBRATIONS 3. GARBAGE DUMPED AROUND RAILWAY LINE BECOMES BREEDING GROUND FOR DISEASE-CAUSING ORGANISMS 4. UNPURIFIED LAKE WATER USE CAN CAUSE SERIOUS FATALITIES

A project that aims to rejuvenate and repurpose the railway corridor and give it a new purpose by also tackling the water insufficiency issue that particularly continues to be a severe problem in the entire ward. AIM: 1. To facilitate natural (rain) water harvesting 2. To facilitate ground water recharge 3. To provide a sound buffer around the railway corridor 4. To improve the quality of the railway corridor 5. To provide pedestrian paths for ease of movement along the railway corridor
AREAS RECEIVING INSUFFICIENT WATER SUPPLY
