Planning With Local Communities

Community participation played a significant role in the making of the project. The primary objective of the initiatives
has been to develop a greener city for the future generations. The local communities and the funding bodies (corporate
sponsors) were invited to participate in various activities such as:
• Cleaning of the Site
• Planting Drives

• Workshops on waste management and composting
• Programmes to raise awareness about ‘saving the environment’ amongst school children

Replication & Scalability

• The Chakkarpur-Wazirabad Bundh project is a unique endeavour, unparalleled in the country, and sets a benchmark in
terms of collaborations, methodology, design interventions and outcomes for similar work in future.
• It can serve as a model for design of non-motorised mobility corridors in other metropolitan areas…in the use of
sustainable & resilient surfacing materials & adoption of environmental friendly practices as discussed.
