Prof. Vibhuti Patel on SDGs Gender Equality, The Urban World, july sep 2017
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs-2015-2030) are a derivative of the Millennium Development Goals (2000-2015), which spells out the following values: freedom, equity, equality, human rights, solidarity, peace, security, tolerance, respect for nature, and shared responsibility. They are a clarion call of 189 governments, on behalf of their citizens, to free our fellow men, women and children from the abject and dehumanizing conditions of extreme poverty, to which more than a billion of them are currently subjected (Patel, V and Karne, M, 2007).
The SDGs are benchmarks of development progress based on such fundamental values as freedom, equity and human rights and peace and security. SDGs can be achieved if all actors work together- heads of the nation states, civil society organizations, international financial institutions, global trade bodies and the UN system- and do their part. Poor countries have pledged to govern better, and invest in their people through health care and education. Rich countries must stick to their pledge to support the poor countries through aid, debt relief, and fairer and just trade. Only if there is commitment on the part of the rich as well as poor countries to fulfil these promises all the SDGs could be achieved and distributive justice, gender justice and social justice can be achieved.

A REVIEW ON DESIGN OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IN CHANDRAPUR CITY | J4RV4...Journal For Research
As we know the population of Chandrapur City has increased so far in this years and with that has increased the vehicles causing high traffic volume & rise in pollution. But the transportation system in Chandrapur City is still the same. To reduce the traffic volume & pollution, we have to study & design the new transportation system in Chandrapur City. The system would be as similar to Nagpur City with the implementation of Star City Buses. In this Study we would first compare the speed of various vehicles. Collection of population details of Chandrapur City, approximate number of vehicles running on road, collection of data with respect to Ticket fares in Nagpur City- whether it is according to Kilometers or places to be reached, calculation of Ticket Fares for Chandrapur City on the basis data collected. By all these, the best mode of transport in City can be studied. On the basis of above data collected from various respected fields, we will then proceed for the Design part of urban transport system in Chandrapur City. For Design purpose, firstly we have to mark the centre of the City, when the centre is decided; we will then select the Bus Terminus. From centre of the city, we would prefer to select the routes of the Buses. One route will be for the city side like Jatpura Gate, Pathanpura Gate. One route will be for Ballarpur going road. The other one for Mul going road, then next for Nagpur road. We could decide as many routes once we get the clear idea about all data. By getting all this details, the next step is to design the destination points of Buses. Then we have to design about the Bus bays, to reduce congestion in the particular intersections or Stops of bus. After the design also can suggest for Bus lanes. Implementation of Bus Rapid Transit System (BRT system) is the main aim behind to develop transportation mode of City. The design of the Transport System can be designed with the help of various software’s like AutoCAD and Revit.Metropolis India Managing Urban Growth

GIS-based Road Network Analysis and Bus Route Evaluation in Futian District, ...
Futian District is the central urban area of Shenzhen and one of the busiest and most dynamic urban areas. This article is based on the spatial analysis method (slop, density, road area); Simultaneously, using research methods such as average station distance, nonlinear coefficient, service area, and public transportation network repetitive coefficient, combined with national standards, this study analyzes and evaluates the urban road network and public transportation network in Futian District, Shenzhen. The results show that: firstly, the overall difference in road network density in Futian District is significant, with a characteristic of high density in the southeast and low density in the northwest. The transportation network is mainly distributed in the east, south, and west regions. Secondly, the shortcomings of the planning in this area were manifested in the non-compliance of the urban road area with national standards, the high nonlinear coefficient of bus routes, increased time and travel costs for residents' bus travel, and a bus service area within 500 m far below national standards. Reflecting on the sustainable development of urbanization in the area, we should address the shortcomings in road design and public transportation layout, explore our own advantages, and adjust planning strategies to seek new directions and strategies.

Urban design is a technique and knowledge seeking to organize and improve urban qualities
and increase the quality of citizenship life. Based on the perspectives and objectives of urban design, the
dominant intention in all urbanism activities is to reach high humanistic and social dimensions. In fact,
what give meaning to a city are the social aspects raised in recent urban activities, in addition to the
physical and visual body of it. Over the past decade the quality of the walking environment has become
a significant factor in transportation planning and design in developed countries. It is argued that the
pedestrians’ environment has been ignored in favors of automobile. The purpose of this study was to
examine the effects of walkability on property values and investment returns. Research method is
descriptive. The method of collected data is field. Also, were used questionnaire tools in order to
collecting data. On the other hand, was referred to municipality 9 region due to, studied area was
located in this urban region.

Planning for Metro Transit Transportation System a simplified Approach: A Cas...
Currently Muscat the capital city of Oman is suffering from many traffic and transported related problems. Some of the serious concerns are high vehicle ownerships, low occupancy in personalized vehicles and poor patronization towards public transportation systems. Ruwi is the City center and a major Central Business District in Muscat. More than one million commuters daily visit Ruwi City center for their day to day business. The common transportation related problems often reported by the citizens at Ruwi CBD, are traffic congestion, over speeding of vehicles, inadequacy of parking places and pedestrian safety. All such problems can be eliminated by providing efficient public transportation system by restricting the entry of personal vehicles and para transit. In this technical paper, panning and designing of public transit facility by metro transport facility is attempted by capturing land use and travel information of daily commuters at Ruwi CBD area. An extensive literature review is carried for establishing the bench marking while planning metro transit system. For this the CBD area is cordoned and divided into traffic analysis zones based on the land use characteristics. Travel information of the commuter is estimated through interviewing them at the CBD entry gateway points and work locations. Land use characteristics are captured through reconnaissance of the area and random inspection of land parcels. Land use Information captured through the Google images and physical verification of data of the selected sample land parcels helped in estimation and characterization of the land use. Questionnaire survey at the activity centers helped in estimation of total trips attracted by the land uses. Travel characteristics, derived through the personal interviews of the commuters, facilitated for the estimation of total trips. Trip factors for different land uses are derived. Total trips generated are quantified and is used in planning of Metro Transit facility at the Ruwi city center. Commuter circulation pattern for the metro transit is also scheduled. Also it is proposed to carry extensive literature for establishing bench mark while planning the transit system.

However, after 1970s, economic liberalization led to a more self-centric, money-focused society obsessed with wealth accumulation and status displays. This has complex effects on urban areas. The author prescribes guidelines for reshaping cities in the current context, discussing a "city prosperity index" to help cities respond to local and global challenges.

A REVIEW ON DESIGN OF PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM IN CHANDRAPUR CITY | J4RV4...Journal For Research
As we know the population of Chandrapur City has increased so far in this years and with that has increased the vehicles causing high traffic volume & rise in pollution. But the transportation system in Chandrapur City is still the same. To reduce the traffic volume & pollution, we have to study & design the new transportation system in Chandrapur City. The system would be as similar to Nagpur City with the implementation of Star City Buses. In this Study we would first compare the speed of various vehicles. Collection of population details of Chandrapur City, approximate number of vehicles running on road, collection of data with respect to Ticket fares in Nagpur City- whether it is according to Kilometers or places to be reached, calculation of Ticket Fares for Chandrapur City on the basis data collected. By all these, the best mode of transport in City can be studied. On the basis of above data collected from various respected fields, we will then proceed for the Design part of urban transport system in Chandrapur City. For Design purpose, firstly we have to mark the centre of the City, when the centre is decided; we will then select the Bus Terminus. From centre of the city, we would prefer to select the routes of the Buses. One route will be for the city side like Jatpura Gate, Pathanpura Gate. One route will be for Ballarpur going road. The other one for Mul going road, then next for Nagpur road. We could decide as many routes once we get the clear idea about all data. By getting all this details, the next step is to design the destination points of Buses. Then we have to design about the Bus bays, to reduce congestion in the particular intersections or Stops of bus. After the design also can suggest for Bus lanes. Implementation of Bus Rapid Transit System (BRT system) is the main aim behind to develop transportation mode of City. The design of the Transport System can be designed with the help of various software’s like AutoCAD and Revit.Metropolis India Managing Urban Growth

GIS-based Road Network Analysis and Bus Route Evaluation in Futian District, ...
Futian District is the central urban area of Shenzhen and one of the busiest and most dynamic urban areas. This article is based on the spatial analysis method (slop, density, road area); Simultaneously, using research methods such as average station distance, nonlinear coefficient, service area, and public transportation network repetitive coefficient, combined with national standards, this study analyzes and evaluates the urban road network and public transportation network in Futian District, Shenzhen. The results show that: firstly, the overall difference in road network density in Futian District is significant, with a characteristic of high density in the southeast and low density in the northwest. The transportation network is mainly distributed in the east, south, and west regions. Secondly, the shortcomings of the planning in this area were manifested in the non-compliance of the urban road area with national standards, the high nonlinear coefficient of bus routes, increased time and travel costs for residents' bus travel, and a bus service area within 500 m far below national standards. Reflecting on the sustainable development of urbanization in the area, we should address the shortcomings in road design and public transportation layout, explore our own advantages, and adjust planning strategies to seek new directions and strategies.

Urban design is a technique and knowledge seeking to organize and improve urban qualities
and increase the quality of citizenship life. Based on the perspectives and objectives of urban design, the
dominant intention in all urbanism activities is to reach high humanistic and social dimensions. In fact,
what give meaning to a city are the social aspects raised in recent urban activities, in addition to the
physical and visual body of it. Over the past decade the quality of the walking environment has become
a significant factor in transportation planning and design in developed countries. It is argued that the
pedestrians’ environment has been ignored in favors of automobile. The purpose of this study was to
examine the effects of walkability on property values and investment returns. Research method is
descriptive. The method of collected data is field. Also, were used questionnaire tools in order to
collecting data. On the other hand, was referred to municipality 9 region due to, studied area was
located in this urban region.
In continue, was used SWOT technique in order to analyzing questionnaire. At finally, proposed
strategies in order to improving urban space qualify.

This document discusses an online web application for booking metro tickets in Nagpur, Maharashtra, India. It aims to provide information on metro timings, routes, fares, and allow users to view timetables. The system would allow administrators to add stations, trains, routes, update fares, and add other administrators. It seeks to address issues with previous paper-based complaint systems by providing an online portal for users to submit feedback and for administrators to view and respond to complaints. The document reviews similar metro systems in cities like Chennai and Delhi and discusses problems with previous non-online systems like lost files and unnoticed updates.

A tale for many cities
The writer defines a city as a dense amalgamation of buildings and people that must provide equity and sustainability. The two key requirements of a city are provision of basic services and social infrastructure, which must be developed together. Some of the essential components of a city that require planning and implementation include streets, public transport, traffic management, affordable housing, drainage, water, sewage, and garbage. The writer is an architect who has been closely connected with Delhi and its planning, and argues we are at a crucial point for urban planning due to rapid population growth in cities.
Planning for Metro Transit Transportation System a simplified Approach: A Cas...
Currently Muscat the capital city of Oman is suffering from many traffic and transported related problems. Some of the serious concerns are high vehicle ownerships, low occupancy in personalized vehicles and poor patronization towards public transportation systems. Ruwi is the City center and a major Central Business District in Muscat. More than one million commuters daily visit Ruwi City center for their day to day business. The common transportation related problems often reported by the citizens at Ruwi CBD, are traffic congestion, over speeding of vehicles, inadequacy of parking places and pedestrian safety. All such problems can be eliminated by providing efficient public transportation system by restricting the entry of personal vehicles and para transit. In this technical paper, panning and designing of public transit facility by metro transport facility is attempted by capturing land use and travel information of daily commuters at Ruwi CBD area. An extensive literature review is carried for establishing the bench marking while planning metro transit system. For this the CBD area is cordoned and divided into traffic analysis zones based on the land use characteristics. Travel information of the commuter is estimated through interviewing them at the CBD entry gateway points and work locations. Land use characteristics are captured through reconnaissance of the area and random inspection of land parcels. Land use Information captured through the Google images and physical verification of data of the selected sample land parcels helped in estimation and characterization of the land use. Questionnaire survey at the activity centers helped in estimation of total trips attracted by the land uses. Travel characteristics, derived through the personal interviews of the commuters, facilitated for the estimation of total trips. Trip factors for different land uses are derived. Total trips generated are quantified and is used in planning of Metro Transit facility at the Ruwi city center. Commuter circulation pattern for the metro transit is also scheduled. Also it is proposed to carry extensive literature for establishing bench mark while planning the transit system.
