 Designing Pedestrian Friendly Neighbourhood in a Greenfield City

Vision

• Naya Raipur’ to be developed as a modern but ‘Green and SMART city’.

• For conservation of the environment and existing landscape, best practices for water harvesting,
wastewater recycling and use of non-conventional energy resources would be adopted.

• Naya Raipur designed as a citizen friendly and visitor friendly city with Non Mortised Transport (NMT) facilities.

• City design would promote sense of security and comfort among its citizens, especially women, children and the

physically challenged.

• 13 Abadi areas have been included in layer -I

Demographic data
• Naya Raipur would act as an additional growth center taking functions from Raipur city and beyond.
• Naya Raipur would attract population from Raipur, Durg – Bhilai Urban Agglomeration and various
parts of Chhattisgarh.
• Naya Raipur is to be developed in three phases within a period of 30 years for a population of 5.60 lakh

Phase – I Phase – II Phase –III

Balanced land use
• Conservation of existing water bodies
• Conservation of existing plantation
• Recreation area 26 %
• Distributed employment centers across the city with
centrally located CBD, to reduce the traffic.
• Green connectivity across the city to promote pedestrian
and NMT movement.
• Grid pattern streets
1. To promote high speed roads on arterial roads
2. Alternative roads for every destinations
3. Ease in providing infrastructure.
4. Suitable for public transport system

Neighborhood Planning
The Housing strategy aims at providing
• Comfortable housing for all coupled with quality
physical and social infrastructure
• Pedestrian movement based neighborhoods for
convenient facilities.
• Gross residential density of each sector - 250 person
per hectare
• Average population of typical sector - 16,000

Principles of Sector Design

Transit priority zones

Typical Sector: 800m x 800m BRT alignment and station influence zone Natural features and a 100m x 100 m

Alignment of the BRT also Gateway (50m) for intermodal access &
receiving higher densities and Midway (250m) for high densities Preservation of natural features
character

Integration of natural
features and open spaces Main access corridors receiving medium density A Complete TOD

Complete streets (Walking and Walking Grid of 150m x 150 m, Connected Greens, Safe Junctions, Bicycle Paths
Biking)

Transit Supportive Uses (Active Edges) Shared uses along the transit corridors, Mixed/Commercial Uses on the ground floor,
Permeable edges.

Integrated Transport (Public Transit) Design responds to the feeder system which supports the BRT system.

Public Spaces (Open Spaces) Varied hierarchy, Inclusive greens, Inter-connected

Cultural Landscapes (Historic and The design respects the natural terrain. The valleys are retained. The traditional routes
Environmental) connecting the existing villages are also retained thus helping to preserve the memory of
the place.

Compact development (Mixed Use and Tiered Density along the transit routes. Mixed-uses proposed at the junctions
