collection kiosk in each Ward office. GPRS enabled
Hand Held Terminal(HHT) for payment collection for
municipal services such as Pay & Park, Entry fee for
parks, auditorium, etc.
Utility Survey & GIS
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) is an
electromagnetic method that detects interfaces
between subsurface materials with differing
dielectric constants such as Pipes, Electrical and
Telecom cables, pipelines and utilities. Identifying the
underground utility positions and GIS mapping of
these utility will provide central database for
operation and maintenance of all utilities.
Total Sewerage Solution
• All treatment plants and pumping stations will be
provided with SCADA system, using various types
of sensors and centralized control room.
• This will help the corporation to monitor the
sewage flows, leakages and increase the
efficiency of operations.
• Power Source from Roof top solar Panels at Each
STP location
E Medical
 Medicine and medical facilities will be available all
over the city round the clock using a common web-
based/mobile platform.
 Under e-medical system, all micro and macro level
medical data are to be uploaded in common
platform for information to the public authorities
and the citizens.
CCTV Monitoring
City wide CCTV monitoring with the help of optical
fiber network, aiming towards safety and security of
the citizens, and laso towards efficient traffic
management and municipal administration.
Centralized City Command and Control Centre
Development of a centralized city command centre on
an advanced ICT platform to monitor administrative
functions and addressing any issues related to it at the
earliest through real time monitoring and complain
mechanism. It will integrate all administrative functions
under one umbrella.

Locality Details
Area Approx. 700 Acres (part
of Ward no. 6 & 7)

6. Area Based Development – The Locality
Justification of the Locality for taking as Smart Area
Parameters The Locality
The size of the area must be equal to or
more than 500 acres.
The locality is approximately 700 acres.
The size should represent the
characteristics of the city, including the
culture and the heritage.
The locality contains Alakapuri Area, which is the CBD of the
city. Apart from it, the educational and cultural hub of the
city is also present here in the form of MSU. Also, important
landmarks like Sayaji Baug, Bus Terminal and Railway Station
are also present in the locality
The issues/ problems identified for the
city should be present within the area,
which will be addressed through the
area specific projects.
The locality faces several issues like presence of polluting
vehicles, on street parking, encroachment of footpath,
absence of pedestrian facilities, over head cables, lack of
interpretation facilities for pedestrians and tourists, absence
of tourism despite presence of heritages etc.
The area should be manageable, as it
will be depicted as a smart area of the
city, and the same will be replicated in
other areas of the city in the later stage.
The area is not too large, and it has a well defined boundary.
Also, the locality is more or less planned in nature, which
will definitely help in implementation of the projects.

7. • Area Based Projects
E Rickshaws
Identified 10 major transport nodes and
proposing charging stations for electric
rickshaws at those junctions
Almost 80,000 auto rickshaws are there
in Vadodara city, which can be converted
into e-vehicles, the conversion decision
and cost to be by rickshaw owners
Option of exporting remnant solar energy
generated to grid
Pedestrian & Cyclist Friendly Streets
• Shift focus of Main Public Roads
toward Pedestrian and Cyclist Friendly
Streets
• Retrofitting of the public spaces and
streets.
• Widening Pedestrian Paths, traffic
calming and pedestrian where possible
• Seamless network of pedestrian paths
and bicycle lanes
• Bike sharing using Smart Technology,
GPS, Apps
Parking Management
Integrated Public Space & Parking Management Policy
By removing private vehicular parking from the public space as
much as possible, the public space can be retrofitted, shifting the
focus to Pedestrians and Public Transportation.
Limiting parking only possible in combination with: limiting
vehicular access and creation a network of footpaths, MSCPs,
Smart Bus + E Rickshaws System.
Smart Metering System (Electricity)
All conventional meters will be replaced with Bi-directional digital
net meter (useful for households opting for rooftop solar
installation in near future), the consumption data will go to Central
location. Web application will display the data to respective
consumer.
Net metering which can record Both import and Export of power
so that individual Consumer who install Roof Top solar panels
needs to pay only for net power consumed..
No Overhead Cable Zone
All the overhead cables to be converted to underground in ward 6
& 7 on priority with proper planning and ducts for Electric,
Telecom and other overhead cables. Manholes to be provided for
Consumer connection at regular interval

8. • Area Based Projects …
E Medicine
Medicine will be available all over
the city using a common web-
based/mobile platform.
Under e-medical system, all micro
and macro level medical data are to
be uploaded in common platform
for information to the public
authorities and the citizens.
Inter-linking of the hospitals
Heritage
To identify the zones having the
heritage structures, including the
old city and then to propose
strategies for heritage-based
tourism to attract both national
and foreign tourists. Heritage
walk
• Tourist bus service for
heritage tourism
• Development of pedestrian
infrastructure in the heritage
zones, including footpath,
plantation, road side
infrastructure
• Tourist information kiosk
Smart Street lighting
Sensor-based street lighting
management system in the
internal roads.
During off peak hours after 11
p.m., when the traffic density
on the internal roads of society
& city is very low/nil, full
illumination level is not
required. Even electricity supply
voltage also increases from
230V to 260V resulting into
higher lightly level when it is
not required.
Smart Water Metering
The Distribution network is divided
into various zones with each zone as
various District Metering Areas
(DMA). Each DMA will be provided
with Smart metering system with on
line Monitoring for flow. Based on
this data Leakage areas will be
identified and Corrective action can
be taken.
Smart Dustbin
Smart Community Bins
consisting of Level indicators
and RIFD tags which can signals
to Control centre and real time
communication with Collection
vehicles
