Policy gaps
• There is no clearly defined policy to promote public transport and TOD, it is happening in the form of projects
• Policy dilemmas • Transit as subject is divided in departments-
State transport, City transport, Private goods transport, paratransit- Planning of road, land use and transit to be under one umbrella.
Issues
Lack of data of land use and transport (private usually) loadUrban design to link each residential and occupational unit to the public tranport networkClimate related mitigation measures to promote walkability and non motorised transportBranding of the public transport through qualitative measures
Differential FSI-the logic
• Integrate land use and infrastructure including transport-R1 within the city and R2 along the arterial corridors.
• High density totally paved development in some areas, some areas with very low density for ground water recharge, flora and fauna and trees
• To bring in canopy development through private initiatives
Vision
10
“Ahmedabad that is a livable, environmentally sustainable and efficient city for all its citizens; a city with robust social and physical infrastructure and a distinct identity; a globally preferred investment destination.”
Principles
• Compact city• Enhance Accessibility, Connectivity and Mobility• Land use and transport integration-Ensure minimum
energy footprint• Consolidate and increase green, water • Incentivizing inclusive urban development – affordable
housing• Conserve heritage and cultural framework

Planning Regulations-Zoning
• Optimise development in existing zoned area• Encourage compact development in central areas,
transit nodes and corridors• Organise development around existing developed
areas in contiguous areas• Organise development in growth centers• Allow for natural growth in villages while preserving
prime agriculture• Special planned development zones- Walled city,
Sabarmati River front, Gandhi Ashram and Science City-Thol Lake etc.

There is no restriction on the ground coverage in the new GDCR and hence the building height reduces significantly.

Green Streets
61
• Green streets can behave as green public spaces where a variety of recreational and leisure activities can take place.
• These should be planned to connect multiple significant parks, plazas and open spaces within the city and to form a citywide “green network”.
• Planned green streets: These include streets that have planned tree plantation and street landscaping elements.
• Unplanned green streets: These include existing streets that have extensive tree cover which is unplanned and unprotected.
