Aerotropolis: Genesis, Evolution and Planning for
Interconnectivity and Infrastructure Development
A.N. Sarkar
Asia-Pacific Institute of Management, 3 & 4 Institutional Areas, Jasola, Sarita Vihar, New Delhi, India
AEROTROPOLIS: THE GENESIS
An aerotropolis, as defined by Dr. John D.
Kasarda, an aerotropolis planning expert
from the University of North Carolina
Chapel Hill, is an “aviation linked urban
form consisting of an airport surrounded
by tens of thousands of acres of light
industrial space, office space, upscale
retail mix, business-class hotel
accommodations, restaurants,
entertainment, recreation, golf courses, and
single and multi- family
housing.[1]
Aerotropolises are conceptually
similar to metropolises, with airport cities
serving as the central business district of
the aerotropolis. Derived from his years of
researching airports throughout the world,
Kasarda maintains that airports are
economic assets and catalysts for
economic development. Kasarda defines
the aerotropolis as “an aviation linked
urban form consisting of an airport
surrounded by tens of thousands of acres
of light industrial space, office space,
upscale retail mix, business-class hotel
accommodations, restaurants,
entertainment, recreation, golf courses, and
single and multi-family housing”.[2]
He
viewed airports as being similar to
metropolitan central business districts,
with airport cities serving as the central
business district of the aerotropolis.
Kasarda maintained that there could be as
many as four basic drivers from which
airport cities emerge :[3]
viz. (1) The
airport’s ability to seek revenues from
other than aeronautical sources; (2) The
availability of affordable land for
commercial activities; (3) The airport’s
ability to increase passenger and cargo
traffic; and (4) The airport as a catalyst for
and ability to attract business
development.
Aerotropolises have emerged because of
the advantages that airports provide in a
global economy.[3]
Globally competitive
businesses utilize the high-speed travel of
airplanes for international communication
and trade, allowing companies to minimize
inventories, source parts globally, and
provide fast and flexible responses to
unique customer requests. To meet these
needs, manufacturing, repair, and
distribution facilities are being constructed
near airports. This stimulates further
growth in cargo and passenger air travel,
trucking, air express, freight forwarders,
and logistics providers along the airport
corridors. However, growth is not limited
to time sensitive facilities. Airport
transportation corridors are becoming
desired locations for corporate
headquarters, trade representative offices,
professional associations, and information
intensive firms such as consulting and
auditing, which require frequent travel.[1]
Kasarda began to use the term aerotropolis
to refer to “a new urban form placing
airports in the center with cities growing
around them, connecting workers,
suppliers, executives, and goods to the
global marketplace”.[4]
According to Dr.
Kasarda, rather than trying to avoid the
airport by building it as far from the city as
possible, cities should be centered around
the airport.[5]
In his view, the city of the

Exploring Community E-Participation for Effective Pro-Poor
Planning
Anubhav Shrivastava*
, Krishna Kumar Dhote
Department of Architecture and Planning, MANIT, Bhopal, India
Abstract
The paper analyse the development of the conceptions regarding public participation in the
last decades. Further paper explores to what extent these conceptions can be used by local
and State authorities in order to improve interaction among government authorities and
citizens in terms of Slum Rehabilitation and Redevelopment Projects. The study shall focus
on the use of Information Communications Technology (ICTs) to provide innovative means of
access to, and participation in Slum rehabilitation and redevelopment. Study assesses the
potential that how web-enabled E-Participation/ICTs (electronic participation) can facilitate
in participatory planning.
Keywords: community participation, E-participation, rehabilitation, re-development, slum,
web-enabled
BACKGROUND
The 2011 census has exclaimed a growing
urban population and continued migration
from rural to urban areas. Nearly 4500
cities and towns have some form of elected
municipal body following the 74th
constitutional amendment. Urban centers
are bursting to their seams, with lack of
planning and services for its inhabitants.
Recent initiatives have been made by the
union Government about its policy
commitments towards urban development
with focus on basic services to urban poor.
These include such populist slogans as
‟slum-free cities”, ‟inclusive cities”,
‟cities without poverty”, etc. recent
schemes are launched such as Rajiv Awas
Yojana (RAY) which purpose to ensure
security of tenure for the urban poor.
While the Jawaharlal Nehru National
Urban Renewal Mission (JnNURM)
focused its investments on 65 large cities,
it has yielded little in terms of reforms in
urban governance. There is still an absence
of a shared political vision and agreed
roadmap to make cities in India ‟livable”
for all its citizens.
In this current scenario, where is the voice
of community? Community based
Organizations of the urban poor have
grown, but have not kept pace with the
growing numbers of the poor; new forms
of poverty in urban areas (where a TV set
and mobile co-exist with malnutrition of
children and chronic ill-health of women)
are not being articulated; community
actions to promote transparency and
accountability of municipal bodies are
irregular and ad-hoc; experimentation of
new approaches to service delivery in
urban areas is seriously lagging.
The Global report on Human Settlements
2003 By United Nations Human
Settlements Programme presents the
challenge of the slums exclaiming slums

How a City Develops With Respect to Architecture Bulandshahr
Part-2 (City of Tomorrow)
Avitesh*
Centre for Architecture, BGI, Bulandshahr, India
Abstract
Our cities possess unique cultural and architectural qualities, strong forces of social
inclusion and exceptional possibilities for economic development. These are centers of
knowledge and sources of growth and innovation. At the same time, however, they suffer from
demographic problems, social inequality, social exclusion of specific population groups, a
lack of affordable and suitable housing, and environmental problems. In this paper, I will
discuss about a vision of the city of tomorrow and the main challenges for the city of
tomorrow (Bulandshahr). How will be the future of city after development.
In the first part, I had discussed present conditions of Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh
(International Journal of Landscape Planning and Architecture).
Keywords: Bulandshahr, city of tomorrow, visions, challenges, ways forward
OBJECTIVES
The main objective of this study is to carry
out the main challenges for the city of
tomorrow and towards a vision of the city
of tomorrow. We will also discuss about
how a city will be The diverse, cohesive
and attractive city. A better understanding
of urban realities requires the development
of more appropriate and multifaceted
indicators capable of measuring more
qualitative aspects of urban economic and
social life – the environment, economic
development potential, cultural assets, etc.
INTRODUCTION
City play a key role in the lives of most
people, not only does a majority of the
population live in cities, but cities also
play a main role in the social and
economic development of all. It seems
almost paradoxical that there is no
common definition for ‘urban’ or even
‘city’, and that the Union has no explicit
policy competence in urban development.
As Bulandshahr is a city of NCR, could be
best satellite city after development. In
terms of aims, objectives and values, there
is a shared vision of the city of tomorrow
as:
 A place of advanced social progress
with a high degree of social cohesion,
socially-balanced housing as well as
social, health and 'education for all'
services;
 A platform for democracy, cultural
dialogue and diversity;
 A place of green, ecological or
environmental regeneration;
 A place of attraction and an engine of
economic growth.
Cities play a crucial role as engines of the
economy, as places of connectivity,
creativity and innovation, and as centers of
services for their surrounding areas. Due to
their density, cities offer a huge potential

Quality Assessment of Neighborhood Levels Public Parks in
Alwar City
Boudh Kuldeep Harjivanlal*, Alok Ranjan
Department of Architecture and Planning, MNIT Jaipur, India
Abstract
The existence of public parks is pivotal to the human beings, especially in the small cities like
Alwar. It provides benefits from the economic, social, communal, environmental and
aesthetical aspects. Parks improved the quality of life of cities and neighborhood. In this
paper the conceptual framework for quality assessment of neighborhood level parks is
followed by a literature study in the fields of urban planning. Neighborhood level parks were
chosen for the assessment because they had a social, economic and cultural difference. Not
only does they provide revenue benefits for health and mental well-being, but it also serves as
a society and community’s meeting place for certain residential neighborhood this paper
analyzes the assessment of quality factors influencing the utilization of neighborhood level
public parks in a small city. A questionnaire survey and primary observations have been
carried out in three different residential areas of the Alwar City to identifying the factors
influencing utilizations of public parks. The result shows that other than quality, the density,
income level and pre-dominate age group are most important factors. The findings imply that
quality factors should be incorporated while planning the public parks.
Keywords: accessibility, neighborhood, public parks, quality assessment
INTRODUCTION
The existence of public parks is pivotal to
the human beings, especially in the small
cities like Alwar. Parks are primarily
planned for recreation and can give
enormous benefits to the neighborhood
and community.[1]
like the improvement of
health, social interaction and enhance the
enjoyment of the local environment.[2]
Similarly, benefits of leisure also cover
physical health, psychosocial well-being,
self actualization, spirituality and self-
identity, family bonding, child
development, environmental education and
social skills development.[3]
Now a days
the where life is becoming modern the
recreational assets are also changing.
Children’s, adults as well as old age
persons all are busy with entertainment
gadgets like mobile, the internet, T.V. etc.
they rarely use the parks. Thus the
utilization of public parks decreasing
significantly. There is a need for the
assessment of the quality of public parks in
small cities like Alwar. Quality is
influences utilization of public parks.[4]
In
this paper we try to understand the quality
of public parks in different residential
areas of Alwar city.
So that it will be understood that the
quality should be improved for the
utilization of public parks. There are
characteristics—(a) comfort, (b). location,
(c). facilities, (d). leisure value and (e).
image, for assessing the quality of public
parks[5]
which can help to improve the
utilization of public parks.

Design and Construction of Rigid and Flexible Pavement on
the Basis of Laboratory Tests and Analysis
Tarun Kumar Lohani*
, Sarmisthabala Prusty, Subhashree Patra, Manas Ranjan Asa
Orissa Engineering College, Orissa, India
Abstract
A highway pavement is a structure consisting of superimposed layers of processed materials
above the natural soil sub-grade, who’s first and the foremost function is to distribute the
applied vehicle loads to the sub-grade. The pavement structure should provide a surface of
acceptable riding quality, favorable light reacting characteristics, adequate skid resistance, ,
and low noise pollution. The ultimate aim is to ensure that the transmitted stresses due to
wheel load are sufficiently reduced, so that they will not exceed bearing capacity of the sub-
grade. Two types of pavements are flexible and rigid pavements are recognized as the most
cost effective and durable in all aspects. This type of research gives an overview of pavement
types, layers and their functions, and pavement failures. Improper design of pavements that
leads to early failure of pavements acting the riding quality has been taken into
consideration for safe and comfortable road construction. Prior to the design of pavement,
laboratory tests of soil, aggregate and bitumen were conducted. This followed by preparation
of four mould samples of hot mix designs with 4%, 5%, 6% and 7% of bitumen whose
grading, bulk density and air voids were calculated.
Keywords: cost analysis, estimation, flexible pavement, rigid pavement.
INTRODUCTION
An ideal pavement should meet the
following requirements:
 Sufficient thickness to distribute the
wheel load stresses to a safe value on
the sub-grade soil, structurally strong
to withstand all types of stresses
imposed upon it,
 Adequate coefficient of friction to
prevent skidding of vehicles,
 Smooth surface to provide comfort to
road users even at high speed, Produce
least noise from moving vehicles,
 Dust proof surface so that traffic safety
is not impaired by reducing visibility,
Impervious surface, so that sub-grade
soil is well protected, and
 Long design life with low maintenance
cost.
Goliya et al. (2013) suggested that flexible
pavements are preferred over cement
concrete roads as they have a great
advantage that these can be strengthened
and improved in stages with the growth of
traffic and also their surfaces can be
milled and recycled for rehabilitation.
Bruhaspathi (2012) says that if non-
conventional pavement design is adopted
in the construction of pavement, there will
be improved performance of the
pavements thus increasing the life and
leading to financial savings. Nantung et al.
(2008) suggested that the traffic data
includes average annual daily traffic,
average monthly and hourly traffic,
adjustment factors, axle load spectra, and
