CHAPTER- I INTRODUCTION & BROAD OBJECTIVES

INTRODUCTION

Brahmapur Development Authority comprises of three Urban areas namely,

Brahmapur Municipal Corporation, Chhatrapur N.A.C. and Gopalpur N.A.C. and 90

Revenue villages spread over 320.61 Sq. Kms and 79190.67 acres and is located in the

Ganjam district of Odisha. It was decided to prepare a C.D.P. for BPDA area in

pursuance to the provision under section – 9 of O.D.A. Act, 1982 by adopting Remote

sensing data and by applying G.I.S. Technology. The Master Plans for Brahmapur,

Chhatrapur and Gopalpur were prepared by the Town Planning Unit, Brahmapur in

1969, 1984 and 1985 respectively for a 20 years perspective. There was little progress in

terms of revising them or formulating new Master Plans. However, during 1996, the Town

Planning Unit, Brahmapur attempted the exercise of formulating a C.D.P. for Brahmapur.

As the progress of work was slow, it was decided to look for an alternative agency. M/S

LEA Associate, New Delhi was selected through a tender process during 1998 and the

offer of M/S LEA Associate was very high, hence rejected. Further in 2005 M/S SPECK,

Hyderabad was selected for formulating the C.D.P. using RS data / GIS application

primarily to generate urban cadastre. The proposal was rejected by the Govt. as it took a

view that the C.P.D. should be prepared by engaging a Town Planning Consultant.

Director, Town Planning, Govt. of Odisha, again floated a Tender (All India

basis) in 2007. However, the rate quoted by the prospective bidder were found to be

exorbitant. Hence, the tender was cancelled. During the same year a budget provision

was made by the H & UD Deptt., Govt.of Odisha for funding the formulation of C.D.P.

Subsequently, the T.C.P.O. Govt. of India, Ministry of Urban Development, New Delhi

was identified as the agency to prepare the C.D.P for the BDPA Area, comprising of

Brahmapur, Chhatrapur,Gopalpur and it’s environs.

1.2 THE CONTEXT

In August, 2008 the Housing and Urban Development Department

(H&UDD), Govt. of Odisha assigned TCPO for formulating a Comprehensive

Development Plan (CDP) of BDA. As per terms of reference, TCPO shall assist the BDA

in organising a “CDP Launch” Workshop in Brahmapur. And prepare, survey formats for

undertaking primary surveys in respect of households, existing land uses, land values,

open space utilization, building materials stores, inventory of heritage, survey of



squatters, industry, tourism and traffic and transportation etc. The survey formats were

finalised in June 2009. Subsequently, M/S MKT Engineering Services, Bhubaneswar was

selected by the BDA to undertake primary surveys. Simultaneously, Odisha Space

Application Centre (ORSAC) was regulated to of developing a digital data base with GIS

applications for the entire area. Accordingly ORSAC generated the thematic maps in

respect of ground water potential, geomorphology, soil, watershed, drainage, slope, RF /

PF boundaries and land use /land cover and submitted the same in February, 2011.

The Brahmapur Planning and Development Area comprises of three

principal settlements i.e, Brahmapur, Chhatrapur ( District headquarters ) and Gopalpur

totalling to 139 mouzas. The Brahmapur Planning and Development Area as delineated

by BDA works out to 317.69 Sq. Km with a population of 6,07,914 persons (Census

2011).

As per section 9 of the Orissa Development Authorities Act (ODA) 1982 the

Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) shall

(a) Define the various zones into which the land covered by the CDP may be

divided for the purpose of the development and indicate the manner in which

the land in each zone is proposed to be used (whether by carrying out thereon

development or otherwise) and the stages by which any such development

shall be carried out and

(b) Serve as a basic pattern of framework within which the Zonal development

plans of various zones may be prepared.

The CDP may provide for any other matter which is necessary for the

proper development of the area covered by such plan and for the health, comfort,

convenience and general betterment of the present and future inhabitants of the

development area.

In June, 2009, TCPO assisted the BDA in organising the “CDP Launch”

Workshop in which the conceptual approach to the Comprehensive Development Plan

was presented based on extensive inputs provided by Sri L.P. Patnaik and Shri R.

K.Sahu, Planning Member, BDA. The conceptual approach highlighted the

characteristics of the principal settlement, i.e., Brahmapur, Chhatrapur and Gopalpur,

location and linkage and the problems and issues It also presented the SWOT analysis

and planning and development issues comprising of sporadic and spontaneous growth



which has occurred and led to the poor quality of built environment, insanitary

conditions, problems and slums, predominance of mixed use leading to problems of

infrastructure provisioning and traffic and transport problems like congestion on roads,

lack of organised parking, lack of open spaces, limited land devoted to organised

commercial use and the general shortage of facilities for tourists.

The objectives were highlighted in terms of the methodological flow chart.

Development of spatial and attribute data base and its analysis led to the issues and

strategies for development on which the draft CDP needs to be prepared. This coupled

with stake holder consultation at all levels helped in finalising the CDP and carrying the

process forward.

1.3 OVERVIEW

The Master Plan for Brahmapur was prepared by the Town Planning

Organisation, Odisha in 1969 and approved by the State Govt. in the same year. Apart

from Brahmapur per se which had an area of 68.695Sqkms., it identified the proposed

urbanisable limits comprising of 31 mouzas having a total area of 86.7867 Sqkms. The

Master Plan recognized the fact that the resident of Brahmapur experienced the need of

intelligent planning and action on account of the delays and nuisance from unregulated

traffic, roadside ribbon development, unhealthy development of areas leading to slums

and squatter settlements, miserable conditions of the peripheral areas, un bearable

hovels near Gate Bazar and Bijipur, chronic shortage of housing, overcrowding in the

older parts of the town discernible distinctly in the Big Bazaar and nearby areas,

insanitary conditions, inadequate and undependable water supply in many places and

non-existence of underground sewerage and drainage throughout the town. The problem

faced by the town were categorised as physical, social and economic.

Like Most places, Brahmapur was growing in a sporadic and haphazard

manner. The older parts were more congested and crowded compared to the east and

north which were relatively open. The growth had engulfed several rural hamlets so that

interspersed within the town were several areas of mud walled, thatched roof settlements

which were substandard in character. Because of congestion in the old town and lack of

planned areas for industrial and commercial development, new activities were coming up

in the form of sprawl particularly along National Highway to the east and Aska Road to

the north.



Brahmapur has the potential to develop on account of some wide roads

and open spaces and tanks which help alleviate the problems of crowded residential

areas. Many old temples also contribute to the charm of the built environment. There was

scope for improvement without undertaking demolition of existing permanent structures

but by removal of unsightly cabins along road sides, improving and covering drains,

cleaning tanks and adding playground facilities in the surrounding areas of tanks and

controlling the raising and herding of cattle in the town.

The Master Plan did not contemplate extensive redevelopment of existing

areas on account of the cost both in terms and money and the hardship. It would cause

the people at large. Therefore, it give primary attention to the proper development of the

future growth of the town by encouraging development of new areas and it was

anticipated that many households and business will seek to relocate in new areas

thereby reducing congestion in the core areas of the town. Emphasis was also on

improvement of the overall environment of the older areas by improving water supply,

sanitation and provision of organised open space.

Compared with some of the other old towns of the State, Brahmapur is of

recent origin and its social characteristics are progressive. Nevertheless, as a result of

extensive and pervading poverty and influx of migrants, Brahmapur is not without its

social problems. The physical environment, though largely a product of poverty has its

depressing effects. In other words, the persistence of the rural way of life in an urban

setting was one of the biggest challenges. Within severe resource constraints, the Plan

sought to bring about some improvement in the physical environment. This was through

a co-ordinated approach with social welfare programs designed to educate people so as

to realise the benefits of planned development.

The plan sought to ensure that economy permeates the plan from

conception through implementation and operation. As Brahmapur had the status of a

service and commercial centre, industrialisation forms the part of the total picture at a

later date as no large scale industries had come up. Nevertheless, the growth of

secondary and tertiary sectors was notable.

The growth of national level establishments of the outskirts of the town

without any planned framework had aggravated trip distances and travel time. Therefore,

the Plan proposed that principal economic and employment centres be concentrated in



different parts of the town to avoid un-directional flow of peak-hour traffic.

Simultaneously, it also sought the allocation of residential areas in the vicinity of work

centres.

While allocating land for various uses in the proposed land use plan, due

consideration was given to the physical, economic and social factors that were likely to

influence the future land use pattern as well as the future needs of the community as a

result of increase in population. While implementing the plan it was proposed that the

periodic reviews may be necessary to modify the proposals enunciated.

The following five principles were kept in view while formulating the

proposed land use plan. Care was taken to retain the existing good features while

discontinuing the bad ones and dislocation of certain existing uses was suggested where

considered necessary

1. To guide the use of land in order to promote advantageous development

of the community.

2. To prevent the abuse of land in order to maximise benefits.

3. To curb the misuse of land

4. To regulate misuse of land for more appropriate purpose and

5. To guide the reuse of land

Specific proposals of residential areas, commercial areas, industry,

institutional, recreation, roads, railway, truck terminals and green belts were highlighted

along with implementation aspects, zoning regulations etc.

The Master Plan for Chhatrapur was prepared by the Town Planning Unit,

Brahmapur in 1984. The Master Plan dwelt on the origin, growth, location and physical

features, area and population and population projections, regional setting, occupational

pattern, housing, trade, commerce and industries, land use, plan implementation and

zoning regulations etc.

The Master Plan for Gopalpur was prepared by the Town Planning Unit,

Brahmapur. It described the issues and inventories in terms of history, location and

physical features, area and population, economy, housing, administrative, utility and

traffic and transport and existing land use in addition to proposed land use,

implementation and enforcement zoning regulations etc.



The Brahmapur Planning and Development Area as delineated by the

Brahmapur Development Authority covers an area of 320.61 sq.Km. And has with a

population of 3,34,944 (2001) in its three principal settlements. Brahmapur Municipal

Corporation had a population of 3,07,792, Chhatrapur (NAC) a population of 20,289 and

Gopalpur (NAC) a population of 6,663. Today the population of Brahmapur Municipal

Corporation is 356,598 (2011).

Brahmapur, also known as the silk city is located along the eastern coast

line of the Country in Ganjam district of Odisha and is about 160 km. south of the State

Capital, Bhubaneswar. It is one of the oldest and largest cities of Odisha. It is not only

famous for its silk but its numerous temples, culture etc. It has attained Municipal

Corporation status after Bhubaneswar and Cuttack. The city’s official name in Sanskrit

was Brahmapur (Home of Lord Brahma) but during British times the name was changed

to Brahmapur. It is the primary railway head of nearby tourist locations and also serves

as a node for nearby small towns and villages. Trade and commerce has always been a

prominent activity here. A majority of people are self-employed.

Brahmapur is one of the oldest and most prominent places between

Bhubaneswar and Cuttack and north Andhra Pradesh. It has a culture comprising of

Oriya and Ganjam. During British times the area was used to form part of the Madras

Presidency. Its prominence can be gauged from the fact that a Court exists here, which

was constituted during British period.

It has been an important centre for education as well. The town is

characterised by an extensive network of canals and tanks which have now either been

filled up or in disuse. Brahmapur plays a vital role in the pharmaceutical business of

Odisha. A number of distributors have their regional offices here. Many software

companies have now set up their offices in Brahmapur. Work has started for establishing

a second institute of Information Technology at Brahmapur. A National Institute of Design

is also coming up. Chhatrapur on the other hand is a district headquarters whereas

Gopalpur (old name, Gopalpur on Sea) was once a thriving port.

Analysis of data pertaining to Census population figures reveals that

Brahmapur exhibited a growth rate of 29.4 % during 1981-91, 38.15 % during 1971-81

and a phenomenally high growth rate of 52.94 % during 1961-71. Similarly, Chhatrapur



exhibited growth rates of 26.94 %, 30.50 % and 38.29 % in the same period and

Gopalpur exhibited growth rates 19.99 %, 25.68 % and a mere 1.33 % in the same

period. This reveals that the three principal settlements in the Planning and Development

Area have tremendous growth potential. Based on past trends, the population of the

Planning and Development Area has been projected to 12.00 lakh by 2031.

1.4 BROAD OBJECTIVE OF C.D.P.

The purpose of C.D.P. is to provide further necessary details and intended

actions in form of strategy and physical proposals for various policies given in

perspective plan depending upon the economic/social needs and aspirations of the

people, available resources and priorities. The main objective of the C.D.P. are:

i) To generate the up-to-date existing Urban land use map of the area using

revenue maps and recent period satellite imageries using GIS Technology

in 1:4000 scale.

ii) To formulate a meaningful but physical development plan to regulate and

guide the Urban growth in the region by 2031 A.D. in a planned and healthy

manner as per the provisions indicated in ODA Act,1982 and O.D.A. Rule,

1983.

1.5 THE VISION

The BDPA stands unique in the state of Odisha as a major Urban

Commercial Complex and has always led the region into an economic exchange zone.

The perspective plan recommends a major thrust in this economic activity of the region

which essentially would open up avenues for investment opportunities of employment.

Keeping this in mind we have the following vision for BDPA area in its C.D.P.

a) A region, i.e., focused on the cultural integrity for its entire people and

must be economically healthy with a broad mix of employment opportunity.

b) C.D.P. must capitalise on its unique setting as a hub of commercial

activity as well as institutional functions like, hospital, Educational Institutions,

along with modernisation of industrial activities in and around Brahmapur.

c) C.D.P. must show real commitment in providing equal opportunity to

all its citizens and Govt. Partners to share in its liveability, safety & mobility etc.

d) C.D.P. must ensure that the BDPA continues to carefully preserve its

historical heritage and its unique sea front.

e) The Planning effort should make the most efficient use of BDPA’s

abundant land resource in order to accommodate future population and

economic growth.



To this end, the Mission comprises of implementing the CDP proposals

through innovative strategies by intensive stakeholder participation at all levels and PPP

approach focusing on leveraging land as a resource for funding development.

Given the locational and linkage attributes of BDPA and its potential for

growth, the CDP strives to achieve overall improvement of built environment and the

resultant of quality of life by promoting economic vitality and a broad mix of employment

opportunities through giving a fillip to organised residential, trade and commerce,

institutional, industry, recreation and transport etc. integrated with land use. At the same

time it, recognizes the need for preserving the natural and built environment in terms of

heritage and nature and coordinating government and non- government programmes

and schemes.

1.6 THE PURPOSE OF C.D.P.

Successful physical planning must develop a consensus an sound

principles with balanced and realistic Visions. It is also the basis for taking day-to-day

decision on land use conversion that follow an optimistic and hopeful long term vision.

The C.D.P. would create more job opportunity, raise aspiration and contribute

entrepreneurial spirit of the people.

According to ODA Act, 1982, the C.D.P.

i) Shall define various zones into which the land covered by the C.D.P.

may be divided for the purpose of development and indicate the manner

in which the land in each zone is proposed to be used and the stages by

which any such development shall be carried out.

ii) The zonal development plan of the various zones may be prepared, using

the provision of ODA Act and the rules which comprise of

1. Reports on physical and socio-economic aspect.

2. Preparing sets of functional plans supported by maps, charts and diagrams

on

a) Land use

b) Traffic and transportation

c) Housing

d) Public Utilities

e) Environmental improvement

f) Education, Research and other Community facilities

g) Plantation, city forests etc.

h) Heritage & tourism



i) Management of water bodies

j) Financial aspects

k) Administrative structure

l) Zoning Regulation with specific emphasis on natural hazard

prone zone area.

3. Investment plan and action plan.

4. Digital proposal land use plan proposal translated over revenue map in GIS

format

1.7 PLAN PREPARATION PROCESS.

a) Interactive discussion with stakeholders.

For initiating the preparation of C.D.P. steps have been taken to discuss

with various stake holders to generate issues of development. The participant raised vital

issues on land utilisation, encroachment of Govt. land, land under water bodies, impact

on industrial activities, widening of road, Truck and Bus terminals and other transport

related activities, drainage problem community and Utility Services etc. In addition to the

issues the participants also expressed concern for addressing problems relating to

economic development, financial aspects of development proposals, slum etc. All these

points are noted for incorporation in the plan proposal of C.D.P.

b) Preparation of digital Base Map.

The digital base map was created by transforming the scanned revenue

map to standard digital format by adopting GIS technology. The interpretation of the

recent satellites imageries (supplied by ORSAC) were made and the existing land use

was reflected over the revenue maps to have a detail digital land use map for the entire

BDPA area and these digital base maps along with interpreted land use constitute the

basis of digital base map of the C.D.P. of the BDPA area.

c) Field Survey, Data collection and updation of digital Base map/Land

use map.

Following surveys and studies were undertaken to collect required Primary

and Secondary information to be used for the purpose.

Socio economic sample survey

Traffic survey

Existing land use mapping by taking input of recent satellite imagery of

the area

Secondary information on economic activities

Major regional and local transport network

Regional/local infrastructure facilities.

Solid waste management



Land type

Natural Resources

Environmental features

Existing institutional frame work

On the basis of the above survey and data collection specific report has

been prepared and conclusions were drawn to facilitate preparation of Draft C.D.P. of the

area. The detail methodology adopted to undertake the above survey and study are

given on the socio-economic survey report.

PREPARATION OF FINAL C.D.P.

On the basis of the analysis, the draft C.D.P. was prepared along with the

proposals. As per the Act, the objections and suggestions from the public were invited

over the draft proposal of the C.D.P. of BDPA area.

The Board of Inquiry was conducted and the objections and suggestions

have been examined by the above committee and the final C.D.P. is prepared

incorporating the views of the Board.

CHAPTER - II BRAHMAPUR DEVELOPMENT PLAN AREA AND ITS CHARACTERSTICS.

Introduction

Brahmapur is the fourth most populous Urban City in Odisha State and

122nd in India. The City’s official name is Brahmapur (Lit “ Home of Lord Brahma”).

Brahmapur is anglicised from the City’s name commonly used during and after the

British era still by some. Brahmapur. “The Silk City” was declared as Municipality in 1867

and up-graded as Municipal Corporation in the year, 2008.

The name Chhatrapur is an association of two words i.e. “ Chhatra”

means relief and “Pura” means town Chhatrapur is the district headquarters of Ganjam

District. It is known for its past glory dating to the pre-British era. It is the home to the

most renowned freedom fighters. It is surrounded by dotted forests of casuarinas and

coconut. Fishing is the main trade. It is located on the road from Brahmapur to Cuttack.

Gopalpur is a small town, 16 kms. away from Brahmapur. An 18th Century

Gopal Temple (Krishna Temple) constructed in this fishing village was the origin of the

name of Gopalpur. Gopalpur was once a part of the ancient and wealthy Kingdom of

Kalinga. It was known as Paloura. Gopalpur is credited with a majestic past and the

reigns of the ancient commercial port are a mute testimony to this. From an obscure little

fishing village Gopalpur became a predominant trading port during the days of the British

East-India Company. The Company built large warehouses and godowns because trade

with Burma had picked up and was an important port for trading rice.

Brahmapur Development Authority Area

2.2 Brahmapur Development Authority Area comprises of Brahmapur Municipal

Corporation, Gopalpur NAC, Chatrapur NAC and 90 revenue villages of rural area and

stretches over an area of 320.61 sq.kms. The area of jurisdiction, villages and their area

is outlined below.

2.3 Location and Linkages

The Comprehensive Development Plan area of Brahmapur is located in the

South-Eastern region of the State of Odisha. This area contains three urban focal points

namely :- Brahmapur, Chhtrapur and Gopalpur. The area is located at the latitude 19°-

20ꞌN and longitude 84°-50'E and has a mean elevation of 78’ above sea level. It is

surrounded by an extensive cultivated land sloping from East and South towards the Bay

of Bengal. The “Kerandi”, a range of hills which raise to 2,500’ above the Sea Level is

bounded the West and North side of the area. The river Rushikulya is flowing in the

eastern side of the area. East-Coast Railway Line and N.H.-16 are passing, through this

area. The State Capital, Bhubaneswar is situated at a distance of 169 kms. from the

Brahmapur City. This area is connected to surrounding regions through S.H. No. 17

and 32.

2.4. Physiography Physiographically of Brahmapur Development Plan Area may be divided

into two major parts i.e. the western Deep lands and the eastern Low lands with the East-

Coast Railway line forming the divider.

2.5 Climate The Climate is mostly of monsoon type with slight variations because of

maritime influence . The climate throughout the year is fine and salubrious. The year can

be divided into four seasons. Winter is from December to February followed by summer

from March to May. The period from June to September is the monsoon season while

October and November constitutes the Post Monsoon period.



(a) Temperature

The month of May is usually the hottest month of the year. The mean daily

maximum temperature during this month is 38° C. Where as minimum mean daily

temperature is 14.90 C in the month of December called coldest month of the year.

(b) Rainfall

The annual average rainfall varies between 1442-1447 mm. Rainfall which

is distributed over two main season i.e. the dry season during November-April and the

wet season during May-October.

(c ) Relative humidity

Relative humidity is generally high and it is recorded to be 80% on an

average throughout the year.

(d) Wind

The wind velocity is moderate throughout the year and becomes stronger

during the South-West Monsoon. At this time the average wind speed is 15 kms. per hour

and drops to 5-10 kms. per hour during October. From October to January the wind

direction is from the north-east to south-west and the direction is reversed during the

south-west monsoon when it is from south-west to north-west. During November to

February, the prevailing wind direction is from north-west to south-west.

(e ) Soil

The soil in Brahmapur Development Plan Area may broadly be classified

into three types i.e. laterite rock, laterite moorum and alluvial ground and sand stones

of varying grain sizes.

(f) Water Resources

From time immemorial Brahmapur City is starved of water as there is no

river linking to the settlement. River Rushikulya flow’s eastern side of Brahmapur

Development Plan Area at a distance of approximately 30 kms. from the Core area of the

City.The water requirement of Brahmapur are met out Intake well at river Rushikulya

which draws 16 M.L.D. of water per day. Another water system from Dakhinapur

reservoir drawing around 32 M.L.D. of water per day. Remaining water requirement of

people are met out from sub soil water.

The water table of Brahmapur is dried up during winter and summer season

due to excess dependency on subsoil water. In order to replenish the ground water table

huge no. of ponds are available in nook and cranny of the Brahmapur town. Major such



ponds are Bedabandha, Agolabandha, Ramlingam tank, Kamapalli bandha,

Haridakhandibandha etc. The Govt. has been taking measures to protect such tanks

from siltation and unauthorized occupancy. As a beautification measure, Govt. has

sanctioned substantial funds to beautify Ramlingam tank, Bedabandha and

Agolabandha. All the water bodies available in Brahmapur town are acting as rain water

harvesting structure to maintain the ground water.

In Chhatrapur, Govt. is executing one project to conserve and

protect a tank named Pillibandha as it functions as a rainwater harvesting structure. In

Chhatrapur town a very gigantic size sweet water reservoir called Tampora Lake which

is maintaining echo system flora and fauna and an attraction point for tourists.

(g) Flora and Fauna

Acasia, Bel, Siris, Tinia, Tenta, Dhaura, Kanchan, Arakh, Sunari,

Chakunda,Jhaun, Amba, Babula, Karanja, Dabadaru, Anala, Sijju, Dimiri, Pipal, Saguan,

Tentuli, Barkoli, Jack Fruit, Neem are the plant species of the Comprehensive

Development Plan area . Tulsi, Bel, etc. are the medicinal plants found in the area.

Common birds, mammals, rodents, reptiles and fishes are also found in the area.

Regional Setting

The CDP area of Brahmapur is located in the District of Ganjam, the South

East region of State of Odisha. This area contains three urban local points namely

Brahmapur, Chhatrapur and Gopalpur. The State Capital Bhubaneswar is situated at a

distance of 169 kms. From the Brahmapur City. It provides direct connectivity to both

Kolkata and Chennai. The city is well connected with other district and towns through

State Highway No.17,32 and N.H.-16. The Brahmapur city is bounded by Bay of Bengal

in South-East, Khandhamal in West, Khurda in North-East, Andhra Pradesh in South

represented in Map.

males and the rural settlement having 939 females per 1000 males as per 2011 Census.

The decrease in sex ratio may be pinned down to the fact that improvement in

employment opportunity of the town attracted male members/persons from rural areas

who could not bring their females with them owing to non availability of residential

houses. Decline of sex ratio is showing the urban character of Brahmapur Development

Plan Area. The same is depicted in table No. 3.6 & figure No. 3.6.

3.10 Population Projection

Population projection is a scientific attempt to Peep into the future. For

Population Projection, a vision has been generated considering the socio-cultural set up

for each Unit. The trend of population growth in each Unit as well as entire Brahmapur

Development Plan Area has also been analyzed. The effect of Plan interventions on

population growth has also been considered and the growth rate and future proposed

population density have been used to project the population of Brahmapur Development

Plan Area. The Population Projection has been made by using various methods such as

Arithmetic Progression, Geometric Progression, Register General and Natural Increase

& Migration Method. Out of the above method, the most suitable method of projection is

Natural Increase and Migration Method which has been adopted in the Comprehensive

Development Plan of Brahmapur. It is estimated that the total projected population within

the Brahmapur Development Plan area will be 12.00 lakh by the horizon year, 2031.

The future population as projected by 2031 is not only the natural increase

but also the induced growth on account of migration keeping in view the upcoming of

TATA SEZ, TITANUM DIOXIDE, R.K.POWER and Institutional conglomeration in form of

500 bed TATA Hospital in BDPA area.

The projected population of the CDP area for 2031 requires a distribution in

different age and sex groups in order to find out student population for education and

working force for future employment. In working out this distribution figures, the trend of

Odisha State (Urban) age and Sex Composition has been followed. Accordingly

the future population distribution in broad age and sex group is represented in Table No

CHAPTER – IV

ECONOMIC BASE

Introduction

4.1 Brahmapur has it’s influence over eight districts. It is a major State Level

trading centre for spices, tamarind and cloth etc. It is famous for the manufacture of

various types of Patta Sarees and Bamboo – straw products. The trade and commerce

here may be mainly divided into two categories i.e. organised and unorganised. Indian

Rare Earth Limited (IREL), is the major industry within BDPA. This is considered as a

mining and mineral (beach sand) industry located at Matikhalo, Chhatrapur. The

Department of Atomic Energy Government of India is the administrative authority of

IREL. This industry was established in 1983. IREL has a township of approx. 40 Ha.

Nearly, 134 houses have been provided to the management staff and another144 to

different categories of workers. The township is self contained and all the community

facilities like schools, hospitals, post office, community centre, parks and playgrounds,

shopping etc. Have been provided. There are many small scale industries operating with

Development Plan Area like manufacture of electrical and electronic equipment, food and

allied sectors, engineering works, pharmaceuticals, plastics, repairing and servicing,

cement based industry etc. Due to the moderate climate and available technical

education infrastructure, the area may become a leading IT/ITES destination of eastern

India. One big Titanium dioxide unit within investment of Rs. 1200 Crore is being set up

in Chhatrapur. A multi product SEZ of Tata Steels has been cleared by the Government

over an area of 600 Ha at Gopalpur. The Govt. of Odisha has decided to develop the

corridor from Rayagada to Gopalpur as industrial corridor with ample scope for

industrialization . Govt. has taken steps for development of granite cutting and polishing

in three adjacent blocks. There is a scope and potential for establishing a number of

industrial units in the periphery of Brahmapur. Also, on account of IREL, a number of

ancillary and downstream industries have come up and more are likely to come up in

future. Two important tourist spots in BDPA are Gopalpur and Chhatrapur Tampara.

However, tourists prefer to stay in Brahmapur due to affordable higher order facilities.

About 200 m away from the National Highway -16 near Chhatrapur lies Tampara Bay, a

lake 7 km in length and 2 km wide running parallel to the coast, north of Gopalpur. The

recently constructed boat club and its surroundings highlight Tampara as one of



the best sites in the context of eco tourism. However, due to lack at publicity, it attracts

fewer tourists. There is a need for an airport at Brahmapur so as to facilitate both

domestic and foreign tourists.

4.2 Existing Sectoral Profile of Local Economy

Looking through the Kalidoscope on the BDPA area a no. of industries like

(TATA SEZ, TITANIUM, R.K.Power, IRE Ltd, Gopalpur port etc. and Institutions like

Parala Maharaja Engineering College, Brahmapur University, Private Engg. Colleges and

Schools, the intervening villages will have significant change in economy from agriculture

to non-agriculture activities. The total cultivated land with BDPA area is 20693.40

hectares which cannot sustain the agriculture activities in future due to up-coming

projects as narrated above.

As per 2011 census 8999 no. of cultivators and about 10189 persons

employed in agriculture with the passage of time these agricultural works will have a shift

from primary to secondary and Tertiary activities.

Table – 4.1 shows the distribution of workers in the different sectors of economy and figure No – 4.1,4.2,

Future Profile of Local Economy

The relative share of the Primary sector activity within the local economy in

terms of employment and income is expected to come down with greater dependence on

Secondary and Tertiary sector activity. Large scale conversion of land and change in

work force engaged in high wage non-primary activities will be the key reason for this

structural transformation.

4.7.1 Primary Sector Activity

The share of land dedicated to agriculture will reduce significantly in

coming years. Moreover, the agricultural land left for primary sector activities will be

more organised and oriented towards high yield production. Pisi culture, diary framing

and animal husbandry will be the next major primary sector occupation as there already

exists a large local market for consumption.

4.7.2 Secondary Sector Activity

An increase in manufacturing trade is observed within the BDPA area.

Many of the industries have come up which attract expected level of industrial investment

with providing adequate infrastructure. Some of the industries can be revitalised with new

non polluting manufacturing and processing activities. Alongwith these, some small scale

industrial activities are also expected mostly textiles sector, local handicrafts as well as

local food products.

4.7.3 Territory Sector Activity

Brahmapur will continue to share administrative functions in the district

level.

The information technology and enabled services have been promoted in

Brahmapur through creation of designated 57 I.T parks. Growth of this sector not only

provides direct employment opportunities from the region but also creates huge scope

for array of ancillary services and associated indirect employment from the region.

There shall be induced boom in sectors such as Real Estate (need for housing)

commercial (need for office space) Recreational and Hospitality (need for a life style ).

Trade and Commerce will continue to be one of the prime movers of the urban local

economy. Re-location of wholesale trading functions away from the congested CBD area

to the peripheral areas of the city with greater regional connectivity has been proposed to

address the existing problems, The Mouza Jhadankuli, Haladiapadar, Narayanpur,

Chamakhandi and Sriramchandrapur have been identified for relocation of wholesale

and warehousing function. Old Brahmapur will continue to be the retail trade and

commerce node. Alternate retail trade and commerce node are also proposed in

Chhatrapur and Gopalpur Planning Zones. Brahmapur will continue to invest in the

creation of higher level health and education facilities. This will not only add to the image

of Brahmapur as a prime institutional hub in Southern Odisha but also generate

considerable employment and multiplied effect in the local economy. Health complex and

educational institutions have been proposed in 12.24 Sq.Km. BDPA area. Owing to the

population growth and rising intensity of urban functions in Brahmapur, rapid expansion

of real estate development is anticipated. The rise in tertiary sector employment will

induce a greater demand for residential floor spaces (Group Housing and apartments)

followed by Commercial Floor space and institutional spaces. Residential activities have

been proposed at several locations.



Gopalpur Urban area is facing the Bay of Bengal and attracts tourists

across the Country. Looking at the no. of tourists lot of hotels facing to Sea have come

up over a period of time. The land facing Tampara lake is also tourist attraction zone and

may create lot of employment in tourism sector thereby contributing to tertiary sector

activities. The details of it is reflected in Table No. 4.3. and Fig. No. 4.6.

4.8 Trade and Commerce

The Commercial activities of a place highlights it’s urban character and

plays a vital role in the economy of the place. The Commercial activities of BDPA area is

both wholesale and retail trades. No. of market complexes have been constructed by

private and public ownership/organisations. It is seen that most of the entrance room of

the residential buildings are used as shops. In respect to rural sector the villages have

commercial activities of various shops in addition to small cabins. Brahmapur town being

a nodal point, its commercial activities is very high. The commercial activities in rural area

is negligible. The BDA and Municipal Corporation have constructed market complexes in

the urban area. There are 8635 nos. of commercial establishments of different categories

having an employment of 20692 persons engaged in the commercial sector as per the

survey conducted by BDA.

The commercial development of the urban sector in BDPA area is mostly

growing up in ribbonated manner along the road sides which in future may create

problem for the public and administration.

Generally, daily markets are the main centres from where the consumers

collect day to day requirements like vegetable, spices, rice & fish etc. being brought to

these markets from neighbouring villages and towns i.e. fish from Gopalpur, Green

Vegetables from Asika and Bhanjanagar plantains and coconuts from Ichhapur.

Brahmapur mainly supplements food stuffs and other commodities,

however a good deal of inter state trading activities pass through Brahmapur.

4.9 Banking and other financial institutions.

The existence of Banking and non-banking financial institutions in an urban

area is helpful for development of various type of economic activities. There are several

nos. of banks in the BDPA area, the details of list of banks represented in Table No. 4.5

CHAPTER-V H O U S I N G

INRODUCTION

Housing is not only a challenging factor for all Urban Centres of the

developing countries but also it has become a headache for the most advanced nations

of the World. This is the result of severe pressure of man over land and gradual

fragmentation of scarce urban land among the increased urban population. This in turn,

gives rise to high price, immergence of slums and squatters, insanitary living conditions

and insufficiency in availing urban services among the Urban dwellers in Cities and

towns and housing being one of the basic urban needs gets a set back in providing

shelter to the whole urban population.

5.2 HOUSEHOLDS AND THEIR SIZE As per 2001 Census about 96,883 households were staying in BDPA area

and the household size was 5.30 persons per household. In 2011 Census about 128564

household were in BDPA area having the household size was 5.72 persons per

household. It is seen from the table that the No. of household size has been decreased.

holds are residing in their own houses and 6 % of household residing in rented houses in

BDPA area as per the survey report.



5.4 TYPE OF DWELLING UNITS

The type of dwelling units along with their nature and construction was

studied. It is seen that majority of dwelling units are pucca and constitute 83% in BDPA

area. However, the semi pucca houses are found to be only 10 %. The kutcha houses

are 6 % and other is 1 % only as found in the area.

5.6 TYPE OF CONSTRUCTION AGENCY. Houses constructed by Govt. Agency.

In order to assess the involvement of various agencies in constructing

houses, a study has been undertaken. BDA & OSHB are main stake holders of executing

housing sc hemes and plotted schemes within BDPA area. BDA has constructed housing

schemes (LIG at Goilundi, LIG, MIG and HIG at Nilakantha nagar and Ambapua. A total

of 500 houses are developed by BDA and OSHB has constructed 300 houses at Mouza

Khadasigh in a vertical mode.



Houses constructed by Private Developer. Private developers have played an important role in augmenting housing

stock. Simplex and duplex projects have been developed in different mouzas, viz,

Rajendrapur Khadasign, Goilundi and Bhabanipur. Besides, unit-wise construction

apartment are also constructed by private developers within BDPA area. So far 120

private apartments have been constructed by private developers.

Govt. of Odisha is giving emphasis on affordable urban housing projects

for giving housing stock to urban poor.BDA Brahmapur had identified two patches of

land one at Ambapua , 0.7 areas and another at Sindurpali – 0.5 acres to construct

affordable houses. As per Building Regulation of BDA, builders are required to coinstruct

10 % of the total floor area of their housing project to be kept reserved for LIG and EWS

houses. As BDA area is cyclone prone area, Govt. has taken appropriate step to

construct pucca houses for the needy people residing in BDPA area. Around 5000

cyclone proof pucca houses for individuals have been constructed on Govt. land which

will be allotted to the landless and poors residing in BDPA area.

5.10 Facilities available in Houses

Survey has been conducted for facilities available in the individual houses.

It covers aspects like drinking water, sanitary facility and solid waste disposal system.

The findings of them are outlined below.

5.10.1 Drinking Water

It is revealed from the survey report that in BDPA area, majority of the

household constituting 83 % are using tap water supplied by Municipal Corporation in

their houses. About 6 % of the households are depending upon hand pump for drinking

water. 3 % households use bore well for the purpose. About 4 % households use open

well and 4 % households use community source for meeting the drinking water

requirement. This situation varies in case of rural area. In rural areas most of the

households depend on hand pumps, bore well and open wells. The study indicates that

safe drinking water has to be given priority and to be provided to new areas and the rural

areas in Development Plan area. The table below presents drinking water facility in

houses of BDPA area.

5.10.2 Sanitary Facility. From the survey it is seen that 60 % of the total household are using

sceptic tank, 4 % are using Barpali, 4 % are using sewerage system, 2 % are using other

type and 1 % using Community facility for disposal of nightsoil.



5.10.3 Solid Waste Disposal.

From the survey, it is observed that the solid waste disposal of 81 % of the

total households in Brahmapur are thrown to the vacant field or road. 6% of the total

household are covered under door to door collection. 2 % of the total households are

using community dust bin for disposal of waste. 3 % are disposing solid waste by other

means and 8 % of the total household are covered under private collection. As 81 % of

the total house hold are throwing garbage in to the open area, the environment around

the residential neighbourhood is not conducive for quality living. As such the solid waste

management is a challenge for the urban policy makers of BDPA area. The table 5.10

depicts the percentage of households for solid waste disposal system in BDPA Area.

5.11 Problems Faced.

Various problems are being faced by people in their houses in BDPA area.

The main problems are – lack of planned/proper sub-division of land with proper road,

lack of planned/poor drainage provision, lack of (1) Park, (2) Open space (3) Community

facilities. Pollution (1) air, (2) water (3) noise (4) soil and insufficient supply of drinking

water, power supply and availability of education facility in the vicinity.

5.12 PLANNING FOR HOUSING FOR BDPA AREA 5.12.1 Housing Policies & Priorities. Housing for all is a very critical & tricky problem. It encompasses all sections of

people and to be addressed strategically so that the future housing requirement is met

adequately. It would be pertinent to chalk out the policy objectives so that all the relevant

problems are taken care in the plan of CDP. In this regard, the housing policies for BDPA

area shall be:

1. To specify at least 30 % to 40 % buildable land for residential use in the

CDP as per the UDPFI guideline.



2. To create the housing stock for all economic groups with affordable price

and built space. In addition to this it is proposed to earmark at least 20 % of

proposed residential area for urban poor for generating affordable housing.

3. To construct required EWS houses for the families below poverty line. 4. Implement developement schemes in the existing residential areas to

upgrade the infrastructure base so that the quality of life of the area is elevated and scope for new house are created in those areas. As a result of this, the existing residential areas shall be redensified in a planned manner.

5. To develop new housing colonies and new townships with better infrastructure in planned manner for industrial workers and other sectors so that better living condition is created and shall create an environment to attract investors to this town.

6. To implement Town Planning schemes in the new areas to create more planned building space for housing in a phased manner.

7. To encourage vertical and compact growth for housing for maximum utilisation of land and creating more green space in the town.

8. Integrating housing and work centre by encouraging corporate houses ad industries to have their own housing.

9. Adoption of innovative models in respect of built space and cost for creating and managing the housing stock.

10. To adopt procedures and models in respect of built space and cost for creating and managing the housing stock.

11. To adopt the affordable housing policy for urban poor of the State Government from time to time.

5.12.2 Housing Strategy. Strategy for rehabilitation of future urban poors.

Specific housing stock are to be created for urban poor as because, these population has no access to the formal housing. About 50 % of the housing requirement for EWS and LIG housing shall be for these people. Since, most of such population migrate to the town temporarily in search of employment; they should be accommodated in Transit homes/dormitories and rented EWS apartments. All such projects are to be implemented in the designated area in the residential use. The rehabilitation policy is to be framed in close co-ordination by the local bodies. The rehabilitation policy is to be framed in close co-ordination by the local bodies and the policy matters framed by State Government from time to time. A model TPs. Feasibility of a model TPS as per the provision of the ODA Act is outlined below. This model is an indicative one and detail plan can be prepared as per the scheme in the ACT. Sl. No. Item of the scheme 2 Total area – 100 acre 3 Pooled land – land to be contributed by land owners 4 Final land to be provided to land owner by deducting the contributed land. 5 Amenities to be provided – Approach Road, drain, infrastructure, social and community facility. Facilities like parks and open space commercial space etc. from the pooled land.



6 Development cost are to be apportioned by the land owner through a development fee. 7 Buildable land shall be used for Residential, Commercial, 8 Institutional, use etc. as per the requirement. Specific areas are to be reserved for EWS and LIG Housing with proper incentives in FAR. 9 Trunk infrastructures like water supply, sewerage, drain and power are to be provided from the pooled land after deducting the land for local road, infrastructures and development of parks and open space. 10 A specific portion of pooled land shall be reserved for city infrastructure so that land requirement for city development can be easily fulfilled. Benefits of the scheme

With the above model the city development can be easily achieved in a faster manner.

The Authority can pool land for road network and infrastructure.

Buildable land can be generated for development.

Buildable residential land can be made available for development of residential structures.

This will facilitate to construct dwelling units of different category.

Land can be made available for the authority to use it for different project of commercial importance to generate fund for city development.

More land can be reserved for city level infrastructure free of cost from the pooled land.

Cost of the scheme – Fund flow and recovery. The cost of the scheme shall relate to development of site by providing all

amenities and infrastructures. This cost may vary from site to site. Initially the Authority to

spend the cost from the development fund and the same can be recovered from this

scheme as per the provisions of the ODA Act. Moreover surplus fund can be generated

from the commercial projects. The surplus fund generated from this scheme shall be

utilised for other projects.

CHAPTER - VI

TRAFFIC AND TRANSPORTATION

Introduction

Traffic and Transportation network is considered as the Engines of

economic development. It constitutes one of the important aspect of the City

Development process. It not only brings change in an Urban structure but also sets the

city in a dynamic path of development. In addition to this it also needs a planned spatial

organisation of the city and determines its future structure of development. This decides

the direction of growth and helps to disseminate the developmental impresses to fringe

areas. It facilitates easy flow of people and goods to various activity centres. The basic

objective is to ensure a sustainable transport system that will facilitate free flow of traffic.

On the basis of this broad concept the traffic and transport planning has been carried out

in BDPA area.

6.2 Broad Structure of Road Network System

Before going to plan for the Board structure of the Road Network System of

BDPA area, it is essential to have detail knowledge of present traffic and transportation

situation. Moreover to achieve an efficient future road network system, it is also essential

to analyse the potential and problems of the existing situation. A study on road

inventory is made for the development plan area as prescribed in Table No. 6.1 and Map.

6.3 Issues of the present Road Network system

As revealed from the status report the present road network system of

BDPA area has a high potential for development. A perfect system has to be created to

sustain the future growth of the City. The N.H. and S.H. also passes through the area

and established linkage with the other area of the state and provide linkage with South



East corridor of the Nation. The East Coast Railway passes through the area which is

transport lifeline of the nation in general and the State in particular. Thus there is high

level of regional transport linkage in this area. The internal road network system in BDPA

area is mostly half hazard and does not follow a planned pattern/hierarchy. The capacity

of the internal roads in the existing residential area is sub-standard and most of the

carriage way varies from 15’ to 20’. Thus these internal roads can not accommodate the

future traffic load.

6.4 Problems observed

Due to this reason the city has grown horizontally having lenear

development along the main roads. Moreover the present pattern of Road network is not

an efficient one and takes longer time for travel to reach the destination. This has

resulted traffic jam, parking problem and creates inconvenience in free flow of traffic. To

overcome these problems no. of Planning approaches are adopted by purposing

adequate arterial roads, circular/ Ring roads, widening of N.H., S.H. and other roads

passing through this area.

6.5 Traffic Inter Sections and Junctions

The study of traffic junctions of the development plan area is undertaken to

assess their problem from the point of smooth flow of traffic. It is seen that there are 15

nos. of important traffic junctions in the entire area and all junctions need improvement.

The existing status of the traffic junctions are presented below :

6.6 Household Survey

(i) Purpose of Trip

Household trip information survey has been carried out in all 139 mouzas.

The movement of people for different purposes have been studied. The origin of trip is

normally from the respective houses as well as the destination of most of the trips is

towards the work place of individuals. It is noticed that 95% of the trips are generated for

going to work place in BDPA area. The trip for going to school in BDPA area is found to

be 1% and similarly the trip generated for business purpose observed to be 2%. The trip

(ii) Distance travelled to work place.

It was felt necessary to study the distance travel to reach the work place.

The study reveal that 8.7% of the people travel average 10 to 20 kms. distance to reach

their work place and 12% of the people travel average 20 to 30 kms. from the analysis it

is observed that the commuters take nearly 17 minutes for travelling one km length.

However, this analysis also indicates a standard deviation of 10 minutes and 45 seconds

mostly characterising the travel speed between rural and urban areas.

CHAPTER – VII

URBAN SERVICES INTRODUCTION.

To sustain the existing Population and Projected Population a

commensurate level of Urban Services is required to foster the quality of life. Such level

of services are Roads, drains, sewerage, water supply Electricity etc. And also School,

Colleges, Hospitals, Community Halls, Parks, Play ground, Burial and Cremation

Grounds Etc.

The availability of such infrastructure are in two categories i.e., physical

infrastructure and social infrastructure.

7.2 PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

Physical Infrastructure forms the basic inputs to any development. Under

this chapter steps have been taken to assess the physical infrastructure with respect to

drinking water supply, electricity, sewerage, drainage and the solid waste disposal. While

analysing the extent of provision of such facilities their problem are to be assessed so

that the same can be incorporated in the CDP proposal.

7.2.1 Water supply

The current level of water supply in Brahmapur is 53 MLD of which 32 MLD

is from Daksinapur reservoir, 16 MLD from the river Rushikulya and the remaining 5

MLD from production wells. However, the present demand is of the order of 57 MLD.

During summer, the water supply is only 27 MLD on account of drying up of Rushikulya

River. Every summer, drinking water has to be supplied to water scarce areas by tankers.

Ground water sources in the city and its periphery do not have the adequate potential

both with the respect to quantity and quality. The major issue regarding water supply is

that the source is far away from the city. Water is transported through a canal system

and due to lot of unauthorised tapping on the way, there is about 80% loss. A proposal

for water supply has been sanctioned for Rs. 215 crore under UIDSSMT. The total

storage capacity available with the Corporation is 8.9 MLD comprising of ground level

service reservoirs and elevated reservoirs. There are 32 reservoirs in total. About 70% of

the population is covered by piped water supply and about 84% of the total connections

are domestic but due to the poor condition of pipes, access to piped supply is only 36%.

There are 1755 stand posts located mostly in the low income areas. About 45% of the

O&M costs are realised by the Corporation from consumers through water charges.



As per norms, the per capita water supply is required to be 135 Lpcd.

However, in Brahmapur the supply of water is only 73 Lpcd. Many people are dependent

on hand pumps. Water bodies have either dried up/ filled up or have been encroached

upon. This calls for strategy for augmenting sources of water, reducing NRVY and

restrictions on abstraction of ground water and rainwater harvesting/recharge measures.

The billing and collection system is poor. There are no metered connections. Tariff

charged is on a flat rate basis. The supply of water is erratic and its frequency varies from

two hours per day in some places to alternate days in others. In addition, strategies such

as reuse and recycling of grey water for non-potable purposes are required to be actively

pursued and implemented.

7.2.2 ELECTRICITY

The electricity supply within the BDPA area is sourced from three feeders,

those areas (1) Ambaguda (2) Narendrapur and (3) Chhatrapur. Ambaguda feeder is

supplying 40 Mega watt, Narendrapur feeder is supplying 30 Mega Watt and Chhatrapur

feeder is supplying 10 Mega Watt . The total requirement of Brahmapur city is 80 Mega

watt.

There are 465 nos. of sub-station, 572 nos. of Transfermer, 11 nos. of Fuse

Call Centres existing in the B.M.C. area.

Total consumer within BDPA area are 1,65,000 nos. under domestic,

14,405 under commercial and 3,350 nos. under industrial connection.

7.2.3 Sewerage

At present there is no underground sewerage system. People depend on

individual septic tanks. Open defecation is prevalent in many areas. As per estimates

80% of the total water supply is converted into waste water and finds its way into open

drains without any treatment and is ultimately discharged into the sea through Sapua and

Bahananalliah thereby causing pollution. Non-existence of sewerage system is posing a

grave threat to public health. There is a need to promote pay and use public toilets and

also promote reuse and recycling of grey water.

7.2.4 Drainage

Brahmapur is endowed with a national drainage system on account of the

land form. The pattern has a gradient from west to south and west to north which

ultimately slopes towards Sapua and Bahananaliahas flowing into the Bay of Bengal.

Owing to pressure of urbanisation and encroachment/filling up of natural run offs,

overflow of storm water and inundation takes place during heavy rainfall. Besides, during



the dry weather, the natural run offs carry sewage and waste leading to environmental

problems. At present, the length of drains is about 450 km., of which 30% are pucca. The

Water Resources Department and Works Department are jointly responsible for the

planning, design, construction and O&M of all major drains.

The sewerage system suffers from severe service in- adequacy. The

majority of drains are open and encroached upon and susceptible to dumping of waste

and sewage disposal which causes frequent flooding. Dumping of construction debris

also aggravates the problem. Moreover, most drains are heavily silted, improvement to

the sewerage system coupled with effective solid waste management measure will lead

to an improvement in the situation.

7.2.5 Solid Waste Management

The Brahmapur Municipal Corporation is responsible for planning, design,

construction and O&M of all solid waste management measures within its jurisdiction.

The total solid waste generated is of the order of 164 tons per day. Of the total solid

waste generated, about 60% is collected and disposed off. The method of disposal is

dumping on open ground as well as run offs thereby creating problems. The solid waste

generated is carried to a dumping yard at Chandala Hills by means of tractors, dumpers,

mini trucks etc. Absence of effective methods for 100% solid waste management causes

unhygienic conditions in the city. There is no system of door to door collection,

segregation, there are no bins on streets and manual lifting is resorted to. In addition,

scientific disposal does not take place.

An integrated approach to solid waste management covering door to door

collection, street sweeping, lifting and transportation and treatment and disposal through

scientific methods is required is to be addressed preferably through PPP.

7.3 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE.

Social and community infrastructure and services are provided in respect to

needs of the communities. Provision of their amenities or infrastructure depends on the

regional bearing, size and hierarchy of the settlement. It has direct correlation with higher

order economic development and improving the quality of life of the area. The concept of

Social Infrastructure is very broad and covers various aspects of Govt. Services delivery.

It is also a sector where involvement of Private sector has been limited. An assessment

of the social facility is to be taken up to point out deficiency that could be managed in the

future plan. In this chapter detail analysis of social facilities like education, health,



Institutions, Socio-cultural, religious, Park and Play ground, Post Telegraph and Fire

services etc. have been made.

7.3.1 HEALTH:

In the health sector, Brahmapur City commands the southern region of

Odisha and Northern part of Andhra Pradesh This is because of the existence of Medical

College in the city. In addition to M.K.C.G. Medical College, there are one no. of

Ayurvedic Medical College and one Homeopathic MedicaL College. Besides one Govt.

City Hospital is also a health hotspot in the City. In the Chhtrapur N.A.C. area, Dist

Headquarter Hospital is another hospital of the BDPA area.

Corporate Hospital like L.V.Prasad Eye Hospital, Sankar Netralaya are

also available in the BDPA area. Lot of Nurshing Homes and Private Hospitals (53 nos.)

are providing a health infrastructure and within BDPA area. Many Dental clinics are

also available within the BDPA area with specialized doctor.

7.3.2 EDUCATION

Brahmapur is a predominantly educational city since half a centuries ago.

Besides, there are Khalikote College (Cluster University), Brahmapur Univesity and Govt

College Chhatrapur, Govt. College Gopalpur, City College Brahmapur, Binayak Acharya

College, Mohamayee Women’s College, Pura College, S.B.R Women’s College, B.Ed

College, Law College, two nos. C.T. Training School.

The availability of the above institutions is boosting the educational

environment within BDPA area.

In the Primary Upper Primary and M.E. level there are 89 nos. of schools

available within BDPA area. In the secondary level there are 37 nos. of High Schools

available within BDPA area.

In the Technical Level there are 7 nos. of Engineering Colleges (Private &

Govt.) 5 nos. of Engineering Schools (Private & Govt.), 5 nos. of I.T.I.s (Govt. & Private)

entire BDPA area and beyond.

7.8 TOURISM

Two important tourist spots of BDA area are Gopalpur on sea and Chhatrapur –

Tampara.However it is observed that some tourists prefer to stay at Brahmapur for local

marketing and site seeing.

Gopalpur on sea seems to be the most attractive spot for both international and

national tourists. It offers its visitors a slice of serenity in environs that are condusive to

introspection and conviviality. Gopalpur on sea is a surfer’s delight and excellent for

sailing. During the survey it is observed that nearly 50% of the tourists both international

and national visiting BDA area come to Gopalpur.Out of the total tourists visiting

Gopalpur on a particular date, nearly 40 % belong to international category. During the

survey it is analysed to assess the various reasons of selecting Gopalpur as tourist spot,

which is depicted in Diagram below.

About 200m. away from National Highway No-16 near Chhatrapur lies Tampara

Bay –a lake 7km. length and 2km. wide running parallal to coast in North of Gopalpur

port. Recently constructed Boat club and its surrounding rate Tampara as one of the best

sites in the Country in the context of Eco-tourism. However due to lack of publicity, it

presently attracts less tourists even at National level. The survey carried out in Tampara

area indicates that out of the total tourists nearly 34% are foreign tourists.

It seems that there is a need of permanent and regular airport surrounding Brahmapur

town. So that both foreign and internal tourist can visit both Gopalpur and Tampara by

air. Presently they have to depend on the airport facility at Bhubaneswar and they reach

to these two places mostly by road or railway.Foreign tourist plan their tour to these two

places based on the information provided by tour operators.

During the survey / interaction with the tourists, the following suggestions on development in tourism in BDA area have been received and recorded.

1. Proper advertisement of tourist spots. 2. Proper infrastructure facilities. 3. Tourist guide should be provided on the spot

7.9 Burial and Cremation Ground

There are 25 Burial and Cremation Grounds in urban sector of BDPA area.

Out of total burial and cremation grounds of the urban sector, 15 numbers are in B.M.C.

Area, 6 nos. in Chhatrapur area and 4 number in Gopalpur area. The above include

Hindu, Muslim and Christian communities. Other rural villages of the BDPA area have

their own burial and cremations grounds. The increasing trend of urbanisation has

necessitated to have a suitable site at out skirt for cluster of villages instead of one for

each village. The CDP recommends that such uses may come up in the agriculture and

allied use zone.

CHAPTER-VIII

LAND USE PLANNING.

Urban areas in developing Country are generator of economic

momentum because of industry, commerce, health, education, tourism activity in such

urban pocket. Lured by such economic activities people from around will flock in search

of employment, better education, better health care, communication facilities etc. Due to

large scale immigration urbanisation will be high and unless a blue print on land use

planning in place, the city will grow chaotic and quality of life can never be achieved.

Land use planning will guide the growth of city as to where residential, commercial,

industrial, institutional, open space would be allotted so that a systematic growth of city in

consonance with geography, wind direction; climate will be in the field. Land use planning

coupled with the building bye-laws supported by perfect enforcement mechanism will

fulfil the objective of Master Plan.

8.2 Outcome of Master Plan of Brahmapur Prepared during 1969.

Lack of proper implementation of the structure of Master Plan in the field,

could lead to unplanned development and the growth from 1969 down the line is not in

tune with the conceptual framework of Master Plan. The Master Plan road proposals

have never been implemented as such proposals were laid down on private land and

govt. have so far not acquired land meant for roads for which residential buildings /

Institutional Buildings came up on the space meant for roads. Such buildings are never

been authorised structures so far. Similarly, open space proposals in the Master Plan

could not be retained as such proposals are made on private land & Govt. not so far

acquired land meant for open space. Huge residential / commercial / Institutional

buildings came up on such reserved spaces meant for open space.

The proposed road widening of 80’0”width on the main spine of the city

which emerges from Jagannathpur Junction to PVN RAO square, & subsequently from

PVN RAO Square to 1st Gate in Aska Road and from PVNRAO Square to Haldiapadar

on N.H.16 (the then N.H.5) could be able to retain the width of road due to periodic

enforcement by BMC / Tahsil / BDA. But, the width of 80’0” is not acquired by govt. so far

to an extent of 10’0” on either side of the spine The width of this road is 60’0”. Earlier this

road, i.e. NH-217 was used as NH-5 and all the interstate Buses used to ply within the

city from Ambapua to Haladiapadar via Kamapalli, Bijipur, Gosani Nuagaon. After the NH

Authorities acquired the land bye-passing the city, the old NH of the Brahmapur city



ceases its activity and the traffic moment inside the city has been smoothened to an

extent.

Besides the above two issues nothing from the side of Govt. taken to

sanctify the Master Plan objectives.

Similar approach for Gopalpur and Chhatrapur. The Master Plan road

proposals & open spaces proposals are never implemented.

Existing land use.

The CDP area of Brahmapur comprises of 139 villages within an area of

320.61 sq.kms. This entire area is divided into two parts, (i) Developed area (ii)

Undeveloped area.

Developed area : It comprises of the area under existing residential, commercial,

institutional, public and semi-public, industrial, open space (Park, play ground, stadium,

burial and cremation ground) activities. This area is calculated to be 79.67 sq.km.

Undeveloped area : It include agriculture activities, diary poultry firm, fishing ponds,

Water bodies, hills, mining areas, beach etc. This area is calculated to be 240.94

Sq.kms.

The total existing land use analysis is given in table no.8.1.

Total CDP area 320.61 Source :- TCPO, New Delhi

N.B.:- Due to digitisation there is discrepancy on the total area of CDP. As per revenue records the total CDP area is 317. Sq.km. But while analysing in the GIS medium., the total area computed to be 320.61 sq.kms.



From the analysis it is seen that residential area is 50.206 Sq.kms. which is

63 % of the developed area and 15.66 % of the total CDP area. Similarly commercial

area is 0.635 Sq.kms., which is 0.7 % of the developed area & 0.20 % of the total CDP

area. Public and semi-public use is 7.134 Sq.kms. which is 8.90 % of the developed area

and 2.23 % of the total CDP area. Industrial use is stated at 2.573 sq.kms which is 3.20

% of the developed area and 0.80 % of the total CDP area. Open space area is 3.68

sq.kms. which is 4.6 % of the developed area and 1.5 % of the total CDP area.

Spatially the old Master Plan area of Brahmapur is 86.82 sq.kms. And 50

years down the line, the developed area of Brahmapur is 79.67 Sq.Kms. which says that

Urbanisation is high around Brahmapur. The trend of Urbanisation around Chhatrapur

and Gopalpur is very less in comparision to Brahmapur.

Broadly the CDP area of Brahmapur is divided into three activity zones. (1)

Commercial zone centres around Brahmapur (2) Tourism zone arround at Gopalpur &

administrative zone around Chhatrapur.

8.3 Proposed Land use.

In the concept of CDP, the land use planning is done by the organisation

“Town and Country Planning Organisation, New-Delhi”, which is basing on UDPFI

guideline. The proposed land use analysis given in the table no.8.2

In the analysis, residential use is proposed for an area of 173.24

sq.kms.which is 54.03 % of the CDP area. Commercial use is proposed to an extent of

3.47 sq.kms. which is 1.08 % of the total CDP area. Institutional use is proposed to an

extent of 17.24 sq.kms. which is 3.82 % of the total CDP area. Industrial use (proposed &

existing) is calculated to an extent of 22.97 sq.kms. which is 7.16 % of the total CDP

area. Open space use (green open Green CBD & existing) is calculated to an extent of

40.28 sq.kms which is 12.56 % of the total CDP area.

Traffic transportation use is proposed to an extent of 7.06 sq.kms which is

2.20 % of the total CDP area. Road is proposed to an extent of 25.45 sq.kms which is

7.94 % of the total CDP area.



Specific proposals.

These proposals are important from the point of view of the Urban Planning

exercise of Brahmapur CDP area. Therefore these proposals need more explanatory

notes for focussed attention of policy makers while implementing the Master Plan.

1. Ring Road. This is one of the important proposals in the Urban Planning exercise of

the CDP Brahmapur. The approximate length of this road is 54 km. The width of the road

is 60 m. This road traverses through villages namely Raghunathpur, Ratanpur,

Location-IV: An extent of 232.1 Hectare of land has been proposed over village Fulta & Khajuria & Sana Khajuria. Location-V: An extent of 303.6 Hectares of Land has been proposed over village Mandiapalli, Badapur, Mansurakota, Antara batia, Alipur, Upalaputi, Basanaputi. Location-VI : An extent of 223.00 Hectares of land has been proposed over village Srirampur. Green C.B.D. The organized open space has been conceptualized at four different locations for

keeping a balance between ecosystem and development of all four locations, each

location is clusted as Green CBD, Institutional CBD commercial CBD. This is such

proposal to decentralize the urban facility to cater to local urban population so that the

traffic system can be sustainable in terms of movement. The exact location of Green

CBD is specified under & also in table.

Location-I :An extent of 72.30 Hectares of land has been proposed over village Sri

RamachandraPur as green CBD.

Location-II: An extent of 104.40 Hectare of land has been proposed over village

Narayanpur , as green CBD.

Location-III: An extent of 196.60 Hectares of land has been proposed over village Sata

Kutuni, Badagumula, Jhada ankuli, as green CBD.

Location-IV: An extent of 117.20 Hectare of land has been proposed over village

Haladiapadar and Madan Mohanpur as green CBD.

Commercial CBD : There is an attempt in CDP to decentralize the commercial hub in order to

evenly distribute the development so that conglomeration of people for shopping at one

particular space i.e. Bada Bazar, Brahmapur is avoided.

In this context, commercial CBD has sbeen located at 4 different location:

Location-I : An extent of 105.50 Hectares of land over village Jhadankuli has been

proposed for commercial CBD. Location-II: An extent of 50 Hectares of land over village Haladiapadar has been proposed for commercial CBD.



Location-III: An extent of 41.90 Hectares of land over village Narayanpur has been proposed for commercial CBD. Location-IV: An extent of 47.80 Hectares of land over village Chama khandi &

Sriramchandrapur has been proposed as commercial CBD. Institutional CBD : Also an attempt has been made in the CDP proposals to decentralize

institutional establishment to avoid conglomeration of people in one particular spot. By

this way we can justify multi nuclei residential neighborhood and also a sustainable

transport corridor movement. In this approach to planning , CDP proposal envisages

institutional CBD at 4 different locations :

Location-I: An extent of 92.5 Hectares of land over village sata Kutuni, & Jhad ankuli has been proposed as Institutional CBD. Location-II: An extent of 124.7 Hectares of land over village Haldia padar, Bendalia has

been proposed as Institutional CBD. Location-III: An extent of 55.00 Hectares of land over village Narayanpur has been proposed as Institutional CBD. Location-IV: An extent of 60.00 Hectares of land over village Sri ramchandrapur has

been proposed as Institutional CBD. Proposed Bus stand : Proposed Bus stand at Halidiapadar over an area of 5 Acres has been

reserved.

Proposed city Bus Dipot :

A land of 4 Acres by the side of Bus stand at Haliapadar is reserved for this

purpose.

for Bus stand of Chhatrapur.

Bus stand at Mz Udayapur of Gopalpur : An extent of land of 4 Acres has been proposed over mz. udayapur for Bus

stand of Gopalpur.

Truck terminal at Kanisi : A Truck Terminal has been proposed in Mz. Kanisi and MadanMohanPur.

Truck terminal at Chikala Khandi: A Truck Terminal has been proposed in Mz. Chikala Khandi.



City commercial Centre at Ambapur : This is a iconic project of BDA, Brahmapur with an aim to diffuse

commercial concentration in Bada Bazar Brahmapur. The total extent of land is 12.0

Acres.

Water works at Jagadalpur : An extent of Govt. land measuring 20.0 Acres has been finalized for

proposed water works to meet the gap between demand and supply of water in

Brahmapur city.

Solid waste Management :

This is a grey area in the urban planning exercise of Brahmapur city as no

systematic approach to this aspect has been taken up by either BMC or Block or NACs

so far leaving a stray/hip of garbage hither/thether and reducing the quality of life in a

big way. This is because of lack of Govt. land for dumping /process of garbage.

An MOU by BMC Brahmapur & I.F.C.(International Financial

corporation)has been inked for smooth disposal of solid wastewhich would be processed

by the IFC over 30 Acres of Govt. land in village Mahuda which falls beyond CDP area

limit of Brahmapur.

Presently the garbage is collected by BMC and dumped in a Govt. land

measuring 69 Hectares in Mz. Chandnia Pahad.

Water treatment plant at Mz. Niladripur : An extent of land of 76.20 Hectares is proposed over Mz. Niladripur to be

reserved for water treatment plan.

Sewerage treatment plant at Mz. Golabandha : An extent of land measuring 86.6 Hectares is proposed over Mz.

Golabandha to be reserved for Sewerage treatment plant.

Truck terminal at Chikala Khandi: An extent of land of 247 Hectares of land has been proposed over village

Chikalakhandi to be reserved for Truck terminal.

Truck terminal at Konishi : IDCO, a Govt. of Odisha enterprise has reserved & allotted land to an

extent of 236 Hectares for the purpose of Truck terminal.



Open space other than Green CBD : To counter the heating effect and emission of carbon dioxide & carbon

monoxide from the ensuing industries that over going to come up, the CDP has reserved

green open space at different location to an extent 2808.30 Hectares over the villages,

Chama khandi, Paikapada, Balibagada, Balakrishnapur, Narayanpur, Upalaputi,

Basanaputi, Badaputi, Agashnuagan and Humuribana.

CHAPTER – X ENVIORNMENT & DISASTER

10.1 Air Pollution

The quality of human life is associated with the quality of air. The rising levels of

various pollutants in the air generate concern as it drastically reduces the quality of life in

any habitat. The quality of air is affected by different factors. Hence the quality of ambient

air deserves a systematic & scientific investigation. The climate of Brahmapur is greatly

influenced by the Sea Beach at Gopalpur. The characteristics of its climate include hot

summers, dry winters high humidity during the southeast Monsoon and low range of

temperature through out the year. Summer is from April to May, Winter from December to

March, rainy season is from June to September with Monsoon from October to

November. The maximum temperature recorded goes up to 38°c with minimum of 15°C.

The average rainfall of the city is about 1442 mm. & average humidity reported was of

80% . South east monsoon brings rainfall due to cyclone. The average wind speed is 15

Km. Per hour.

The ambient air quality station of Brahmapur city during 2014 is given below:

10.3 Proposals

It is advisable to have greening of townships, Green belt development and

afforestation should be encouraged which may act as sink for pollutants.

Steps should be taken to control the use of loud speakers especially in

residential areas. In no case loud speakers be permitted after 10 P.M.

Automobile emissions should also be given importance as these are

sources of direct ground level pollution. The city should be equipped with

sufficient number of auto emission testing centres where the petrol and

diesel driven vehicle could be tested and Certified.

Efficient and reliable Public transport system should be introduced to

reduced the number of vehicles.



10.4 Water Pollution

The quality of water has become an integral part of any sustainable water supply

system. Pollution of water resources has increased due to population pressure, Industrial

and agricultural activities. As human health is directly linked to the availability of water

and in sufficient quantity & quality, its preservation is very much critical in imparting the

required quality to human life. Most of the people of the area are depending upon ground

water by tube wells fitted with hand pump & dug well. The concentration of iron is

increasing in ground water in most of the locations.

10.5 Proposal

The open defecation in the rural and semi Urban areas may contribute to

the surface Water or well water pollution. So necessary steps may be

initiated to construct low cost community latrines in these areas especially

in slums to solve its problem.

The minimum clearance prescribed should be maintained between wells &

septic tanks or soak pits. The application for building permits should

contain all these information and should be mandatory. The areas where

septic tanks are available, should be followed by soak pits. The

construction of souk pits of enough capacity along with septic tank is to be

made mandatory.

NEED FOR DISASTER MITIGATION

The BDPA area has been prone to both natural and man made disaster.

Natural disaster like wind hazard is a regular feature in the area. The area is also

vulnerable to earthquake. The BDPA has threats of floods in some of the areas.



It is therefore necessary to reduce the consequences of natural disasters

through planning & subsequently preparing a list of guidelines for the major urban

communities so that the local capacity is strengthened & they are prepared to respond to

natural disaster.

EARTHQUAKE & FIRE

Brahmapur being an old town it has many old & dilapidated buildings which

are more vulnerable to earthquake and fire. Most of the buildings in the main city are co-

jointed thereby increasing the vulnerability in case of earthquake and fire. Most of the

wards of BMC area are all congested areas with no open spaces & connected with

narrow roads increase the vulnerability to fire. The information collected from the fire

station Brahmapur indicates regarding special calls made by the inhabitants during the

year 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014 is placed in the table No.1.

FLOOD & CYCLONE

Brahmapur, Gopalpur and Chhatrapur town have been affected by Cyclone

Phailin. Thewind speed generally reaches up to 150 kms. Per hour causing damage to

the large number of hutments in the city. Gopalpur port has suffered losses of Rs.200

crore during Phailin in the year 2013 (14.10.2013), 2.34 lakhs mud and thatched houses

damaged. Ganjam district has been affected by extensive damage to crops and property.

The scale of devastation during these cyclonic storms is often magnified due to improper

planning and haphazard growth of the City. There is no proper drainage system inside

the city, due to its topographical position, storm/waste water has become a major

concern. Since it rains for almost three months in a year, most of the areas in the city

face flood problems during the rainy season. As Gopalpur being nearer to the Sea is

highly vulnerable to cyclone. To add to this, the houses being joined to each other with

narrow lanes from wind tunnels, thereby making the wind cause more destruction. There

are also many slums, mostly located along these low lying areas which face the worst

problem during rains.



ENVIRONMENT & PUBLIC HEALTH

The unplanned , unrestricted urban sprawals along the narrow lanes and

path ways without any firm land use policy has added to degradation of urban

environment. Lack of civic amenities in thickly populated residential areas, insanitary

condition and narrow streets have further aggravated the conditions. Open dumping

yards are yet another menance to the environment. It affects the sanitation of the city.

TRAFFIC CONGESTION.

Brahmapur, being the oldest city, the roads are narrow. The narrow roads

with heavy traffic are the major concern of the city areas like Goilundi, Tata benz chhak,

Courtpeta, Bada bazaar and Sanabazar. There are also illegal encroachments and

temporary stalls along the roadsides by the hawkers and the shop owners further

decreasing the width of the road. In absence of space available for parking in the city,

incidence of on street parking is found everywhere adding to the woe of traffic. The main

bus stand is located in the heart of the city. Being a commercial trade centre for the state

there is a heavy flow of vehicles which creates congestion.

Most of the areas along the natural drains and engraved drains are

occupied by the slum dwellers to put up their hutments and often carry out their livelihood

activities thereby increasing the vulnerability for natural disaster.

The new construction taking place does not adhere to the norms of seismic

safety or cyclone resistant construction which increases the risk.

Due to urbanisation, there is sprawl of slums in most of the urban centres.

The structures are mostly thatched and unengineered which increases their

susceptibility to earthquake and fire.



STATE INITIATIVES AND OBJECTIVES.

The Odisha State Disaster Mitigation Authority (OSDMA) was set up on 28th

December, 1999 as the first Disaster Management Authority in the Country. The main

objective of OSDMA are :-

To act as the Nodal Agency for Disaster re-construction works

To coordinate with the Line Departments involved in reconstruction.

To coordinate with bye lateral and multi lateral aid agencies.

To promote disaster preparedness at all levels in the state.

To prepare suitable guidelines for disaster mitigation.

A natural disaster cannot be prevented appropriate mitigation Measures need

to be taken to reduce the extent of damage, destruction and human sufferings.

Some of the suggested broad guideline for the disaster mitigation of BDPA

Areas as follows:

Rain water harvesting is to be made mandatory for all building with more than

200 sqmtr. Roof area while approving the building plan.

Storm water drainage for the city as well as for individual premises must be

properly designed.

In flood prone areas, building should preferably be designed on stilt leaving

ground space free of any importance activities with no basement.

Adopt strict enforcement on illegal cutting of forests and protection of existing

forest land.

Re-densification of forests.

Afforestation of denuded forest land.

Restoration of forest land and afforestation.

Open spaces if any in urban areas such as park, green tracts and roads have

important function in disaster prevention. Efforts to secure such open spaces

should give top priority to areas where they are lacking.

Sewerage

1. The treatment of sewerage is essential to promote safe sanitation practices so as

to provide hygienic conditions. Besides sewerage from households, the waste

from industries also needs attention. The sewerage is estimated at the rate of

80% of the water supply in any area.

2. The city may be encouraged to adopt low-cost sanitation technologies with the

technical assistance of the local bodies and involvement of NGOs in actual

implementation of such programmes. The newly developed areas may be

considered for the provision of community level septic tanks based on economic

and environmental considerations with flexibility in planning for the extension of

regular sewerage facility in long term. The city shall be provided with regular

sewage treatment facilities at zonal/city level. The squatter settlements may be

provided with a facility of 1 toilet for 4 to 5 families based on the concept of low

cost and low water consumption and the maintenance of such community toilets

may be looked after by the community and voluntary organizations together. For

the existing developed areas without sewerage network, the individual households

or a group of households may be encouraged to adopt low-cost sanitation

systems.



Drainage

The drainage system is mainly through natural drainage courses on account of

topography. The discharge is calculated on the basis of additional drains as well as

upgradation of existing drains.

Electricity

The consumption of electricity works out to be about 2 KW per household at the city level

and includes domestic, commercial, industrial and other requirements. The actual

estimation of power requirements may be made based on the industrial development

(type and extent), commercial development, domestic and other requirements. The

provision of one electric sub-station of 11 KV for a population of 15,000 is recommended

as a general standard.

Solid Waste Disposal

The production of solid waste in settlements is a function of the socio-economic profile of

the population and activities in an area. Insufficient conservancy services in most of the

urban centres tend to leave the garbage spread on the road sides or open spaces

leading to unhygienic living conditions. The garbage is removed by the municipal bodies

and dumped at the sanitary landfill or in some cases it is converted to compost especially

in small towns. The generation of waste varies from about over a quarter of kilogram in

small towns to about half a kilogram per capita in large cities.

Social Infrastructure

1. The provision of these amenities shall take into account regional considerations as

some towns/ cities cater to the requirements of surrounding villages, medium size

towns cater to small towns and villages and so on in the hierarchy of settlements

in the region, for higher order facilities. Especially in case of large and metro

cities, certain apex level facilities significantly cater to regional demand in addition

to the city demand.

2. This affects the general level of satisfaction and further strains the facility/

infrastructure. In order to ensure efficiency and cater to the city and regional

demands, alternatives which may be considered may be to provide:

a. Amenities for 25% additional population overall as a cushion , or

b. Exclude such apex level facilities from the total estimated needs provision.

3. It is common knowledge that the local level facilities once provided at considerable

cost, tend to lose their efficiency owing to neglect, inefficient management, lack of



funds for upkeep, encroachments and at times misuse. It is imperative to

encourage local community participation in management of local level facility units,

even if created fully or partly by public funds. The idea is that the user community

should have a stake in proper functioning and maintenance of the facility.

4. It is also observed that a number of lower level social amenity units particularly in

regard to education and health infrastructure are operating in private residential

premises due to both non-availability as well as deficiency in number of

designated sites. Such practices should be assessed to find out the actual needs,

which shall be a reliable input for arriving at realistic norms, as also for providing

adequate number of sites.

5. In residential areas where exclusive sites for social amenities units are not

available, local level facilities only (viz. nursery and primary schools, dispensary,

etc.) may be allowed to operate from residential use premises on the condition

that specific controls and guidelines are adhered to.

6. The possibilities for multiple use of social amenities may also be considered

especially for areas with deficiencies of certain facilities depending upon the

compatibility of the activities and acceptance by the community.

7. In distribution of infrastructure, population plays the guiding role. In some cases

depending upon the regional requirements, a higher-order facility becomes

necessary in a lower order settlement.

zoological parks, traffic parks etc. are as under:

Planning Unit Area in sqm. per person

District 1 district level park and sports centre,

maidan

Sub-city centre 1 city level park, sport complex, botanical/

Overall town/city level 10 sqm. -12.00 sqm. per person



Socio-Cultural 1. Mere prescription of norms for the provision of socio-cultural facilities is not enough as

there are certain vital issues involved with their provision which are as follows:

a) It has generally been observed that the religious buildings come up on encroached

sites and especially those meant for open spaces. In fact, just the provision is not

enough. It is not to say that the area is inadequate but efforts should be made by

the development agencies, with the assistance of NGO’s in the area, to ensure

that the places of worship come up as planned with the participation and

preferences of community itself.

b) The provision of housing cluster and sector level socio-cultural facilities such as

community room, community hall and library shall be given following

considerations:

Socio-economic profile and behavioral pattern of the community. For areas with

low income group population, the maintenance and management of formal

community buildings is not an easy task and does not match with their behavioral

pattern. Thus, for low income areas, the use of such facilities shall be planned

and designed for multipurpose activities which can ensure optimal utilization. The

activities such as adult education, training programmes for economic generation

activities, child and family welfare programmes, etc. may be organized in such

spaces besides the facility of reading room.

c) The community halls for middle and higher income areas are utilized more often for

various functions, etc. compared to low income areas where open spaces/streets

are preferred for such functions.

d) In congested areas, schools are used for various social functions during non-teaching

hours which in fact is a practice and may be considered as an option.

2. On a general basis, separate religious sites (2 for 15,000 population) may be

provided so that places of worship do not get established on encroached sites

as is invariably happening. Further, the norms for socio-cultural facilities may

be considered as under:



a) Community hall (multi-purpose) : Cluster Level

The small parks/open spaces should also be developed with community hall to suit the

cultural and behavioural needs of the community.

b) Local Community Centre : Sector Level

(Hall, Library, Space for

extra-mural activities)

c) Recreation Club : One for 15,000 population, 2,000 sqm.

d) Music, Dance, Drama

Centre : One for 50,000 population.

e) Meditation and Spiritual : One for 50,000 population Centre

f) Socio-cultural centre : One for 3-5 lakh population

3. Increased provision of space for socio-cultural facilities is essential in view of the increasing demand of such sites for diverse needs, creating more avenues for socio-cultural interaction and enriching the quality of built environment at neighborhood and district levels.

Miscellaneous CREMATION/BURIAL-GROUND

The sites for cremation grounds shall be identified in locations which are not proximous

to residential areas. It may be advisable to provide one electric crematorium besides the

provision of at least 2 sites for 3-5 lakh population.

DHOBI GHAT

It is suggested to provide one site for 1 lakh population with appropriate arrangements for

water and drainage facilities and it shall be ensured that the water bodies are not polluted

as a result of such activities.

TAXI STANDS/BUS STOPS/ AUTO RICKSHAW STANDS

Taxi stand/bus stops Auto rickshaw shall be provided with the following considerations:

- these should not be located near the road intersections; - the maximum distance of such facilities should not exceed 0.5 km from the farthest

point in any residential area.

OTHER FACILITIES AND SERVICES

Telecommunication

The norms for other facilities and services listed under communication, security, fire and

post are derived from the departmental norms which are governed by the national/state

level policies. The communication sector is gaining priority and increasing importance in

economic development and is thus immaterial of the size of town. It is hoped that the

standards as well as level of service will be improved in times to come. The existing

standards for these services are as under:

a. Communication – 10 lines per 100 population. b. Fire – one fire station for 1 lakh population within 1 to 3 km distance.



c. Postal services – One post office for 10-15 thousand population.

Fire Protection

The fire services shall be provided taking into consideration the demands of surrounding

villages also.

Social Infrastructure Provision

1. The norms and standards of facilities outlined in the preceding sections have been

proposed primarily with respect to minimum requirements of social amenities to be

provided in new development areas at various levels. While the level of facilities

and infrastructure to be provided should not make any distinction in their qualitative

aspects between existing built-up areas vis-à-vis new development areas, in view of

ground realities and other constraints, it is often observed that problems arise in

implementing these norms in existing built-up areas, particularly the core areas of

any town, calling for their rationalization for effective adaptation.

2. In order to resolve these problems following guidelines are proposed for existing

built-up areas.

a. It is proposed that while Unit Norms (facility per unit size of population) of local level

facilities should be kept uniform, the space norms may be considered at a reduced

scale, which may range between 50-60% of those proposed for new areas.

b. In order to compensate for the shortfall in various types and levels of facilities which

cannot be provided within the existing built-up area, such facilities may be provided

in contiguous/ proximus areas of new development as additional provision, e.g. due

to space constraints in existing built-up area the school facility may not have ample

space for playgrounds/open spaces in the proximus new areas to compensate for

its non-availability in the built-up area. Such provision shall be over and above that

which may be required for the sector’s own assigned population.

c. As proposed earlier also, multiple use of one facility unit should be encouraged so

that optimum use of a facility may be possible. Such a step would also compensate

for non-availability of individual facility units in a built-up area.

Provisions For Fringe Areas/ Transitional Areas

1. It has been observed that the fringe areas, particularly the rural settlements, in the

fringe are subject to considerable stress during the process of a city’s growth. Such

fringe settlements are normally not included in the programme of social infrastructure

development as they lie outside the urban limits, despite the fact that they are both

functionally and physically an integral part of the urban area. In order to mitigate the

existing deficiencies and stress conditions, and to prepare such transitional settlements

and development pockets for proper integration with the planned urban areas, it is

proposed that such fringe villages and pockets be identified and skeletal provision of

basic infrastructure and facilities may be made. An incremental approach for

upgradation of these facility units should be in-built in provision of such facilities in

fringe/transitional areas.



2. While no specific norms and standards can be suggested, as these will depend on

the broad characteristics of development and nature of demand, the above measures, if

incorporated in the total programme of social infrastructure planning, would be able to

help in their integration with the urban area as well as improve the quality of life in these

fringe settlements which otherwise would develop into slums, which would result in

serious implications in the quality of built environment.

Transportation

CLASSIFICATION

a) Arterial Road: Roads for intra-urban through traffic, with no frontage access, no

standing vehicle and very little cross traffic and minimum roadway intersection

spacing of 500 m.

b) Sub-Arterial Road: Roads for intra-urban through traffic with frontage access but

not standing vehicles having high cross traffic, high capacity intersections and

minimum roadway inter-section spacing of 300 m.

c) Collector Street: Streets for collecting and distribution traffic from and to local

streets and also for providing to arterial and sub-arterial roads, having free

frontage access but no parked vehicles and having heavy cross traffic and

minimum roadway inter-section spacing of 150 m.

d) Local Street: Street for access to residences, businesses or other abutting property,

having necessary parking and pedestrian movement. Free Access.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION OF URBAN ROADS

Design Speed

The recommended design speeds for different categories of roads are:

Arterial - 80 kph

Sub-Arterial - 60 kph

Collector Street - 50 kph

Local Street - 30 kph



Space Standards

The space standards (ROW) recommended for different categories of roads are:

Arterial - 60 m

Sub-Arterial - 45 m

Collector Street - 30 m

Local Street - 24 m

Cross-Sectional Elements

The width and layout of urban road cross-sections depend on many factors, the chief

amongst them being the classification of roads, design speed and volume of traffic

expected. Some of the salient cross-sectional elements are described below:

a) Carriageway widths

The recommended carriageway widths are shown below:

Sl. No Description Width (m)

i) Single lane without kerbs 3.5 m

ii) 2 -lane without kerbs 7.0 m

iii) 2- lane with kerbs 7.5 m

iv) 3-lane with/without kerbs 10.5/11.0 m

v) 4-lane with/without kerbs 14 m

vi) 6-lane with/without kerbs 21.0 m

b) Footpath (Sidewalk)

The minimum width of footpaths should be 1.5 m. The width should be increased by 1 m

in business/shopping areas to allow for dead width. Footpaths adjoining frontage should

be at least 3.5 m and a minimum of 4.5 m is desirable adjoining longer shopping

frontage. The capacity guidelines for design of footpaths are as below:

Capacity (Persons) Required width of Footpath (m)

All in one direction In both directions

1220 800 1.5

2400 1600 2.0

3600 2400 2.5

4800 3200 3.0

6000 4000 4.0 Cycle Tracks

The minimum width of cycle tracks should be 2 m. Each additional lane, where required,

should be one m. separate cycle tracks should be provided when the peak cycle traffic is

400 or more on routes where motor vehicle traffic is 100-200 vehicles/hr. When number

of motor vehicles using routes is more than 200 per hour, separate cycle tracks are

justified even if cycle traffic is only 100 cycles per hour. The capacity of cycle tracks

recommended is as below:



Width of Cycle Track ( m ) Capacity (Cycles/hour

Two lanes 2.5-3 250-600 50-250

Three lanes 4 7600 250-600

Four lanes 5 >600
