1 Delhi occupied by ROAD AND VEHICLES 2011 Remaining Area CITYSCAPES. 21% 9% 18% Roads Vehicles - 66 lakh till 30 April origin parking Vehicles - parking at different destinations MAKING OUR CITIES BETTER PRESENTATION BY : AKASH HINGORANI, OASIS DESIGNS INC FOR THE IUT-ITDP TRAINING PROGRAM ON NMT TH MAY 2012 NEW DELHI 52% No. of vehicles per 1000 ppl. DELHI VISION 2021 THERE IS A NEED FOR MULTIMODAL INTEGRATION Public transit may not be a doorstep to door step service. Shorter trips could be made by non motorized transport ECO MOBILITY THUS,The first and last mile connectivity become critical. TOTAL AREA 1483 sq.km.(appx) Source :DDA 2021 Masterplan

2 The walking & cycling linkages from the public transits should be prioritized over other facilities like parking etc. Seamless intermodal connections to other modes of public transport should also be integrated at public transits. Option to select different modes to make travel trip cheaper, faster and more comfortable With auto-rickshaws, gramin seva, vendors being pushed on to the main carriageway along with the pedestrians and cyclists the metro station has only provided for a car park for private vehicles to be parked there day-long. Pedestrians and cyclists made to risk their lives due to lack of proper infrastructure connecting to the Metro Station The dangerous conditions that exist as approach to the metro stations

3 MODAL CHOICES ORIGIN First Mile Connectivity - Morning DESTINATION Last Mile Connectivity - Evening Private car Cab/Cab on call Auto Rickshaw METRO /BRTS/ PUBLIC TRANSPORT Private car Cab on call Auto Rickshaw Walking Walking Cycling Cycling City Bus Cycle Rickshaw Cycle Rickshaw City Bus Metro bus Metro bus Shuttle Van /Tempo Shuttle Van /Tempo Delhi has a mix of public transport systems including circular rail, BRTS, Bus network, Metro, proposed LRT etc the need is really to integrate these systems of long distance connectivity to local short distance sub-systems Modes used for integrated multi-modal public transport system.

5 Proposal CONCEPT Creating the main pedestrian concourse for people to move seamlessly to and for. The main axis also emphasis the main entry to the metro station. On the left side all the para transit facilities, pick up drop off are placed, off the main movement. On the right side public plaza is created for people who want to sit and while off some time eating and enjoying PEOPLE COMMUTING EITHER BY NMT OR PARA TRANSIT OR DTC Existing Condition Activity Mapping of PEDESTRIANS Proposal Pedestrian Movement and DTC Bus Movement ISSUES: All thedtc buses going towards Vasant Kunj, donot have a bus stop so they pick up and drop off right onto the road. Para transit and private vehicles take a free right and stop on the road for pick up and drop off, adds to the chaos and confusion Inspite of large area available activities are concentrated at one point. Pelican Crossing Raised Crossing PROPOSAL: All the para transit facilities happen on the one side, feeding into the pedestrian concourse. People crossing the road requires a proper raised crossing and a pelican signal as the junction is very critical. Creating a good plaza for people who want to spend some time at the station. Bus Bus Stand Metro Bus Auto Rickshaw Gramin Seva Hawkers Pedestrian Raised Crossing 18 All OASIS the DESIGNS activities INC are concentrated to few points whereas the rest of area is underutilized.

12 RING ROAD ALONG MILLENNIUM PARK INDRAPRASTHA MARG IP marg houses important governmental offices including the Police Headquarters,PWD,DDA apart from the institutions like the SPA,ITO etc -leading to a huge number of pedestrians. The streetscape design for this area focuses on creating spaces for pedestrians to be able to access the public transit systems like the metro and the BRT,both of which are very close to this road. The streetscape of IP marg has a unique footpath cum plaza feel with inbuilt stone seaters dotting the whole stretch of the road. The existing green strips along road and boundary walls are retained and enhanced to form continuous buffers. MILLENNIUM PARK SIDE STREETSCAPE THE PLAZA IN FRONT OF THE MILLENNIUM PARK T-POINT The streetscape design for this stretch is front of the Millennium park aims at creating a park edge experience -with plaza garden stretches along the sidewalk & NMT Corridor. The plaza in front of the Millennium park T point is also designed as a pedestrian space integrated with the under flyover plaza. The entire junction is designed as a bus interchange facility with all bus stops relocated near the junction of pedestrian crossings to enable people to change over from the different buses in different directions.the sculptural tensile structures add to the visual place making of the junction.

16 ADDING VITALITY TO PUBLIC SPACES - Creating Plazas, Vendor spaces. NEAR MAHARANI BAGH FOB The plaza near the Maharani bagh bus stop and foot over bridge is designed as an over-spill for the people waiting at the bus stop. This increases the capacity of the area as the bus stops do not provide for seating for all. PLACE-MAKING CREATING A ENJOYABLE PUBLIC REALM All the space which forms the part of the ROW of the road has been freed of all encroachment even governmental encroachment like PWD site offices etc. This newly reclaimed space has then been integrated with the street functions to help make the street perform better. This particular set of photographs of the before and after at one location demonstrates clearly the transformation of the encroached space into a happening well-designed overspill space which becomes the extension of bus-stop. People waiting for a bus, or waiting for a friend, or family or just wanting to sit and watch can use this space without hampering the other users wanting to use the street these small plaza spaces actually add a lot of value to the overall street experience

17 ITO UNDER FLYOVER CREATING PEDESTRIAN ZONES PEDESTRIANIZATION ADDING VITALITY TO PUBLIC SPACES - Creating Plazas, Vendor spaces.

18 ASHRAM JUNCTION The photographs of how the streets used to perform earlier and how the same street has now been transformed with proper planning, road realignment. New public conveniences have been introduced along the entire sidewalk facility on either side in addition to periodic locations for vendors plazas etc

19 ASHRAM FLYOVER NEAR ISBT, SARAI KALE KHAN All the space under the flyovers which used to be inaccessible and unutilized earlier has now been freed up and made accessible for people, pedestrians to use. These new plaza spaces under the flyover have also been planned to connect to newly located bus-stops planned near the junctions and in this way they work as a overspill of the bus-stops so are used by all travelling on public transportation. The design of the new under flyover plazas also discourages misuse of the space by squatters and beggars and is well lit at night to ensure safety. Additional functionality like vendor spaces and public art galleries with changing display are planned to keep these plazas busy as active urban landscape public spaces in the city Small plaza spaces have been carved out of low lying swampy ground on the edge of the street to house newly built vendor plazas near the ISBT Sarai Kale Khan and the Nizamuddin Railway Station. This is a very busy intersection and the urban landscape design for this space provides for large conglomeration of people to become a part of the urban experience offered by the city. NEAR MAHARANI BAGH FOB ENTRY TO MILLENNIUM PARK All left over, underperforming, wasted space on the streets has been transformed into useable, functional, safe spaces that make the experience of the user more dignified and enjoyable. Though green, the area in front of Millennium park Entry lacks in term of connectivity. The new landscape design intervention helps make this into an arrival plaza with cycle track & pathway on either side of the entry.

20 RING ALONG NEAR STUPA RING ROAD-OPPOSITE MILLENNIUM PARK The area in front of the Stupa at the Millennium Park used to be used for unauthorized parking and the parked cars would occupy the entire sidewalk space for the road. The new streetscape has managed to reclaim all the space being earlier used for parking to create a park extension that allows the parkedge to merge with the new pedestrian plazas to create a pleasant urban landscape experience for the users Ring road near Ash pond area didn t have proper pathway and buffer green area for safer walking & cycling. The area is now transformed into a usable multi modal track with lush green area along side. RING ROAD ALONG MILLENNIUM PARK NEAR IP METRO STATION The unutilized, derelict landscape that used to characterize the streets before the Streetscape Design Make-over now is transformed into a landscape that works, that catches, filters and helps the storm water infiltrate into the ground. This ecological landscape helps the public green areas in the city become more useful ecologically, while making them look neat and safe. Also seen in the picture the special lighting that has been put up only dedicated to the cycling and walking tracks on the road, so that they remain safe and usable at night also just as well-lit as the motor-able carriageway on the road The plaza in front of the Indraprastha Metro Station has been redesigned as a multi-modal interchange with connections to a bus-stop, taxi-stand, scooter rickshaw stand, cycle stand allowing the users to be able to optimize their journey in terms of cost and time. The new Streetscape design also incorporates tensile fabric shading structures with large number of built-in seater walls as part of the overall street-furniture vocabulary. Traffic management, road-realignment transforms this space into a usable pedestrian hub, with proper allocation of vendor spaces and public art displays

21 NEAR IP METRO STATION NEAR IP POWER STATION This set of before and after photographs of a stretch of the ring road near the IP Metro Station shows how a new bridge has been constructed over an existing open storm water drain to create a new pedestrian access to the Metro Station Plaza this was needed to achieve the continuity for the cycling and walking tracks on the road. The urban landscape design also incorporated structural interventions to create a seamless, uninterrupted and connected sidewalk facility The area around all the bus-stops have been redesigned as intermodal interchange plazas with provisions of a taxi stand, scooter stand, cycle stand etc. The new streetscape design also ensures that all the bus-stop locations have suitable pedestrian crossings to reach the other side of the ring road. NEAR IP POWER STATION NEAR IP POWER STATION What earlier used to be a death trap has now been transformed into a pleasurable walking experience with help of the Streetscape Design interventions. The open drains, unkempt sidewalks existing earlier have now been transformed into beautiful boulevard walks with fragrant planting to create the new emphasis on walking and cycling activities on the road, as these benefit the majority of road users who use the public transportation.

22 NEAR IP POWER STATION NEAR WHO BUILDING The open drains, unkempt sidewalks existing earlier have now been transformed into beautiful boulevard - with the landscape design cataloguing all the unavoidable parts of the city's infrastructure that earlier used to stick out in the center of the pavements. Pavement areas are redesigned with proper cycle track & pathway, which are separated from carriage way with green buffer. NEAR IP POWER STATION BHAIRON PLAZA New Pavements have been created instead of dangerous open drains, to enable people to walk safely to bus stops Existing pedestrian subway properly integrated in the landscape plan

23 IP MARG The streets as they existed before, were more of a series of obstacles that the user was supposed to negotiate but have now been transformed into people friendly spaces with space for cyclists, wheelchairs, prams, pedestrians and other NMT users ITO UNDER FLYOVER CASE FOR WALKING
