About The Project - Area Based Development At North & South T.T. Nagar

The Master Plan evolution has been a continuous process of discussions and consultation with various stakeholders. The
majority of site area is taken up by knowledge, IT, sports, tourism, cultural and residential sector which forms the core
of this project. Commercial, Residential and Open space uses collectively account for another one-third of the site area.

The Commercial area consists of Retail, financial Institutions, Convention Centre, Galleries, Offices, Hotel and Other
Entertainment. The Residential land use consists of High-rise residences, Affordable Housing, Government Housing and
EWS housing. Open spaces are provided for leisure, recreation and wellbeing as a regular pockets with a comprehensive
walking and cycling network. They also provide wider area to serve the sustainable utility provisions such as swales,

sewerage wells and other resource efficient applications.

The ABD area is being developed as High Density Mixed-Use Development along the three transit zones within the site
boundary on the basis of Transit Oriented Development. This mandate gives an opportunity to re-design the project
area inviting more people, facilities and investment. The task would include revisiting the development regulations,
building bye-laws and any other related policies like draft Transit Oriented Development Policy (not yet published) for the
redevelopment of project area.

The ABD area design has been evolved based on the transit oriented development where the three transit stations have

been designed with high rise high density which gradually subsides when away from stations. The connection between
the three stations has been given importance to achieve easy and fast mobility. This connection has been explored and
improved over the stages both for vehicles and pedestrians. Topography of the area has been respected and utilized

for the design evolution.
Every stage has a basic principle to retain as much of existing green cover as possible. Design has evolved keeping the
idea of shortest distances for walking and connects the greens through non motorized traffic (NMT) movement.

The proposed land use structure of ABD project area is based on market demand assessment and references from URDPFI
guidelines, 2015. As the project is TOD based development, the land area under roads (including Non-motorized vehicle
movement network designed for creating short connections between the two given points) and multi-purpose open green
is designed on a higher side. Commercial land use is so structured that it accommodates the required product mix of
various activities planned for the project area. A ratio of 50:50 is considered for developed land and land required for
roads, utilities and green to optimize on concepts of TOD planning.
