PROPOSED
SECTION Fig 9 – Proposed section
• The main challenges for the development included
maintaining Right of Way (ROW) by procurement of space
for commercial establishment.
• So as to follow a seamless movement form path to the
shops in regard of revised ROW from 30 mts to 36 mts
and conversion of perpendicular parking to parallel
parking hence optimizing ROW section for incorporating
other functions.

Fig 10– Snippets from the newly built road
• A new multiutility zone near Sambhaji nagar
garden is an active space that integrates
existing trees with seating areas, play zone
for kids and planting.
• The design is inspired by the elements of park
itself finding expressions in new stepped
seaters and pergolas.
• These elements are used all along the road to
creat a unified design language.
• All three junctions on the road are detailed in
such a way so that apart for the vehicles,
there were easy ingress – egress points for
the pedestrians as well as the cyclists.
• New pedestrian plazas have been designed
by reclaiming large areas near Bata Chowk
and Bharve Chowk.

SEMINAR
• The new design of the street while encouraging cycling, walking and use of
public transport envisions the side streets as vibrant public spaces in the life of
the city.
• Removal or relocation of many of the existing incompatible functions and
elements for the idea of creating a safe public space along the vehicular road
like shifting of feeder pillars into multi utility zones and light poles while addition
of others to complete NMT network are integral part of the proposal.

PLACEMAKING OUTCOME
• Ensuring equitable distribution of
space for improving universal
accessibility for all, carbing out
pedestrian space, and maintaining
continuity and ease of movement
has made J.M road a popular and
vibrant public space.
• After the on ground roll of the
project, there has been a
perceptible increase in the number
people of all age groups and all
strata of income groups using this
public space of the city as a “hang
out” space rather than an only
“walk through” one.
• More cyclists have started using
the cycle trace and the demand for
cycle stands have increased.
