Smt. Sushma SwarajExternal Affairs MinisterIndia

Over the years, Singapore has emerged as one of

the finest city-states of the world, redefining the

very essence of urbanisation by blending it with

sustainable development. With its business friendly

environment, successes in urban planning and

improved quality of life, Singapore consistently

figures among the top smart cities in the world.

We can learn immensely from Singapore in

this field. Smart City Development and Urban

Rejuvenation is, therefore, an important

component of the multifaceted India-Singapore

Partnership. Cooperation in Smart City and Urban

Planning was one of the 5-S Planks (Five areas of

cooperation to enhance bilateral relations), agreed

upon during my visit to Singapore in August 2014.

I am delighted that this cooperation has evolved and

today India and Singapore collaborate in the areas

of urban planning, smart cities development, skills

development, smart mobility, waste management

and water.

During the visit of the Honourable Prime Minister

of India, Shri Narendra Modi, to Singapore on 23–25

November 2015, a Memorandum of Understanding

(MoU) was signed between the Town and Country

Planning Organisation (TCPO) of the Government

of India and the Singapore Cooperation Enterprise

in the area of Capacity Building in Urban Planning

and Governance. The MoU, executed by the Centre

for Liveable Cities (CLC) in Singapore, has imparted

training to 99 Indian officials. I commend TCPO

and CLC for their tireless efforts to implement the

initiative. I am grateful to the Prime Ministers of

India and Singapore for their vision. The benefits of

this training program will have long-lasting impact.

India is growing at an unprecedented rate and

urbanising at a rapid pace, with hundreds of

millions likely to join the urban population in the

next two decades.

We have to build new cities and towns. We have

to look for smarter ways to make our cities clean,

green, habitable and future oriented. Increasing

efficiency and improving the overall quality of life

of every Indian is one of the core objectives of our

Government. We are striving in the best possible

fashion to improve the quality of life of our people.

In this context, the Smart Cities Mission, under the

Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, has acquired

key significance. Acquiring Singapore’s expertise in

this endeavour will be beneficial.

I am certain that the India-Singapore partnership

in urban planning will become a major milestone

in our bilateral relationship. This book will be an

extremely useful academic resource for policy

makers and urban planners.

Foreword

India’s urban transformation presents both challenges

and opportunities. Urban areas account for well over

half of the country’s GDP and represent an ever-

growing proportion of its population. Recognising

this, Prime Minister Narendra Modi put forward a

vision of building 100 Smart Cities in India. He also

sought to study Singapore’s development experience

for examples of transforming urban areas into highly

liveable cities.

It is therefore fitting that “Smart City Development

and Urban Rejuvenation” is a key pillar of the India-

Singapore Strategic Partnership. We are happy to

contribute a small part to India’s urbanisation journey

by sharing our experiences, not only in town and city

planning, but in addressing challenges like waste and

water management, sustainability and social urban

planning. The collaboration between Singapore’s

Centre for Liveable Cities and India’s Town and Country

Planning Organisation on an Urban Planning and

Governance Programme is highly commendable and

helps to form important partnerships among the urban

planning community in both countries.

I am pleased to note that this book captures case

studies of how Indian cities can lead the way in

urbanisation and how Singapore can play a role. I am

confident that this will serve as a relevant and useful

resource for all urban practitioners, and help contribute

towards the deepening of Singapore-India relations.

Preface

Singapore and India share a strong historical

connection. India was among the first countries

to officially recognise Singapore as an

independent sovereign nation back in 1965. Even

our country’s name, Singapore, can be traced to

“Singapura”, Sanskrit for Lion City. Our shared

colonial past has left common legacies in law and

administration. Singapore’s development is owed

in part to the hardworking men and women of

the Indian diaspora.

Till today, we have continued to pursue mutually

beneficial partnerships. When Singapore and

India’s partnership level was raised to that of

Strategic Partner, the Centre for Liveable Cities

Singapore worked closely with our counterpart,

the Town and Country Planning Organisation

(TCPO) of India's Ministry of Housing and Urban

Affairs, to provide capability development

exchange to senior State and Federal officials

from 2016 to 2017. Furthermore, Singapore

has been assisting to develop Amaravati’s new

master plan in Andhra Pradesh since 2014, our

first Government-to-Government urban project.

Our shared Asian values will continue to facilitate

closer relationships. We commonly feel the

urgency to grow sustainably and address the

effects of climate change to build resilient,

inclusive cities. This urgent development must be

built on the principles of integrated planning and

dynamic urban governance to build competitive

economies and sustainable environments and

ensure that residents have a rising quality of life.

It requires an urban systems based approach

to solving the complex problems which our

cities face today. Singapore and India can work

together on urban solutions—in infrastructure,

water, planning and transport—to build a more

sustainable world. Use of smart technologies

can be an important enabler and springboard, if

harnessed smartly and sensibly. Some of the case

studies in this book already share some excellent

examples of how Indian cities are leading the way.

The Centre would like to thank the Ministry

of Foreign Affairs, Singapore, and TCPO,

and all our programme participants and

resource persons who have contributed their

knowledge, expertise and time to make this

publication possible.

We hope to continue to build on our strong

foundations and see more partnerships

in years to come.

The year 2015 was a milestone in India-Singapore relations. As the two countries celebrated 50 years of diplomatic ties, a historic joint statement was inked by Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and Prime Minister Narendra Modi that November, which elevated the relationship to a Strategic Partnership. The strategic agreement committed the two countries to cooperating in several areas including urban planning and development.

Prime Minister Modi had assumed office

at a critical turn in India’s developmental

story. While cities are home to 33% of India’s

population and contribute to more than half of

India’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP), they face

the challenge of having to house an additional

300 million urban residents by 2050. The

existing urban infrastructure is already under

severe strain. Prime Minister Modi recognised

this challenge and made sustainable and

equitable urbanisation one of his key policy

thrusts. Targeted programmes launched under

his premiership such as the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, Atal Mission for Urban Regeneration and Transformation (AMRUT), and the Smart Cities Mission address,

respectively, issues of urban cleanliness and

sanitation, equitable urban rejuvenation, and

the harnessing of technology for urbanisation.

Struck by Singapore’s rapid success in

overcoming its spatial and resource constraints

and transforming itself from a third world to

a highly liveable first world city-state today,

Prime Minister Modi sought to tap the country’s

urban planning experience. During a visit to

Singapore in March 2015, he consulted with

Singapore’s Emeritus Senior Minister Goh Chok

Tong on the possibility of collaborating in the

area of urban development. Prime Minister

Modi’s request was then formalised in the

strategic agreement, with Singapore committing

itself to train up to 100 Indian officials in urban

governance and integrated planning.

Singapore’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs thus

partnered with the Centre for Liveable Cities

(CLC), under Singapore’s Ministry of National

Development, to curate and deliver a capability

development programme drawing on the

lessons from Singapore’s urban development

for the past five decades This programme, the

“Urban Governance and Planning Programme”,

was delivered in partnership with the Town and

Country Planning Organisation (TCPO), the

planning arm of India’s Ministry of Housing and

Urban Affairs (MoHUA).

The best intentions in planning can come to

naught if a city’s governance is ineffective.

Hence, Singapore places a premium on good

governance. The Singapore concept of dynamic

urban governance involves five implicit

principles. The first is that governance requires

leading with vision and pragmatism, which

highlights that decision-makers must have the

political will to push through policies that may

not be popular but will benefit the country in

the long term. The second principle is building

a public sector culture of integrity, where

corruption is absent and there is accountability

and transparency. It is this culture of integrity

that will give politicians and public sector

officials the legitimacy to carry through

unpopular policies. The third is cultivating

sound institutions, that is, the structures and

processes needed to ensure that planning and

development transcend beyond human whims.

Apart from formal institutions, this principle

also involves informal institutions—the norms

of governance such as a rational approach

to policy, respect for sound professional

competence, the separation of politics and

the professional services, meritocracy,

and the aforesaid culture of integrity. The

fourth is about involving the community as

stakeholders since creating a liveable city is a

complex undertaking and needs the support of

its residents for it to be sustainable. The final

principle involves working with market forces

to incentivise behaviour and improve efficiency.

“ 1.1 million Indians come here [Singapore] every year. And it is nothing to do with an ancient heritage, beautiful forests, national parks or whatever. It is the totality of this experience. The lesson to draw from here is that it is possible to imagine and then create something—the tangible with the intangible.”

Mr Jawed Ashraf, High Commissioner of India to the Republic of Singapore 18 August 2017

Participants at Singapore's Bishan–Ang Mo Kio Park, which is an example of an "Active-Beautiful-Clean Waters" project integrated with a park.

Integrated Planning and Dynamic

Urban Governance: Key principles for

sustainable development

The CLC’s capability development programme

is centred around the Singapore Liveability

Framework, which captures the processes and

mechanisms by which Singapore sought to

achieve the three outcomes that characterise

a liveable city: a competitive economy, a

sustainable environment and a high quality

of life.

At the heart of Singapore’s successful

urban development are its long-term and

integrated approach to master planning and

development, and its efforts to institutionalise

good governance. A key pillar of the integrated

master planning approach is the Concept

Plan, which considers a 50-year time horizon.

To prioritise the competing uses for land, the

plan is created through inter-agency efforts to

ensure all key land-use requirements are met.

Taking a long-term view also helps the

government anticipate future challenges and

work towards meeting them. Even so, given

that the future is unpredictable and no plan

is perfect, Singapore’s planners recognise the

need to build in some operational flexibility and

periodically revisit their plans in the light of

changing conditions. Furthermore, as a plan is

only as good as its successful implementation,

effective execution through careful preparation

and sound policy is key. Finally, resource

constraints, whether natural, physical or

financial, will inevitably place limits on urban

development. To overcome these, there is a

need to systematically engage in innovation,

whether in physical or policy aspects.

Lastly, and most importantly, participants

workshopped action plans to address urban

challenges they faced in their home cities.

These workshops were facilitated by

Singapore’s urban experts.

It is these discussions that have been captured

in this publication. Not all of them could be

featured here; only a handful were selected

to provide an overview of the broad range

of topics that were covered. The discussions

reflected the spirit of daring to dream and of

breaking organisational silos to solve complex

urban challenges. It is hoped that India’s urban

planners will be imbued with the same spirit

as they take on the daunting task of addressing

the pressures of rapid urbanisation in the

coming years.

“ The Capacity Building programme organised by the Centre for Liveable Cities was an excellent programme, comprehensive and well structured, with a wide-ranging syllabus covering relevant subjects, a judicious mix of informative and interesting lectures and presentations, field visits and assignments, lively question and answer sessions, and highly experienced professionals as faculty. Overall, it was a great value-addition for planning professionals.”

Mr Sompalle Surendra, Additional Chief Planner, TCPO

Participants at lectures, during action plan discussions and during site visits.

From Singapore to India

Singapore’s training commitment to India

was realised between 2016 and 2017 with the

holding of four runs of a week-long training

programme for 99 urban planners, engineers

and administrators from TCPO and various

state planning agencies hailing from 31 of

India’s States and Union Territories.

The structure and contents of the programme

were formulated by the CLC in close discussion

with TCPO, led by then Chief Planner Mr Kishore

Kumar Joadder. Lecture topics and site visits

were carefully designed to reflect the needs

of the leaders, planners, engineers and other

officials attending the programme. Lectures

were held across the various urban domains

such as integrated planning, housing, water,

sustainable environment, greening, transport,

industrial economy, urban financing, land

acquisition and resettlement, and conservation

and heritage. Site visits were also held—

carefully curated to demonstrate many of the

principles at work in enabling Singapore’s urban

transformation. Participants were brought to

Toa Payoh township—the first planned township—

to demonstrate the application of integrated

planning; to Bishan-Ang Mo Kio park to learn how

Singapore’s “Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters”

programme had enabled the transformation of

drab, concrete drains into lively public spaces

besides being used for flood management;

and to the Tuas South Incineration plant to get

a glimpse of Singapore’s waste management

strategy and see for themselves how such a

Waste-To-Energy plant worked.

1 A scheme whereby landowners voluntarily give up their lands in return for smaller plots in the built capital but with added value such as sewerage, electricity connections and other amenities. For Amaravati, landowners also obtained an annuity along with other benefits.

was signed in December 2014 for collaboration in

master planning and the construction of Amaravati

as a modern, vibrant, sustainable and smart city

with a strong economy, excellent social amenities

and efficient transport and logistics networks. It

included selecting an initial “seed" or start-up area

for a Singapore private sector group to start the

process of implementing the master plan. Through the

partnership, it was envisaged that AP officials would be

able to adapt Singapore’s experiences to their context.

The challenge then lay in coming up with a

comprehensive approach to master planning,

development and governance that would fulfil

several objectives: serving as a common reference

for all implementing agencies, providing direction

for government officials on prioritising development,

setting up institutions and processes which would

give clarity to potential investors and developers, and

maintaining public confidence in the capital city effort.

AP approaches Singapore to help develop its new capital, Amaravati.

First Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed between Singapore and AP. Singapore to create three master plans: for the capital region, capital city and the city's commercial area.

Singapore hands over the master plans in three phases.

Singapore consortium submits a proposal to be the master developer of a 6.84km2 start-up area, which is set to be Amaravati's commercial core. The master developer will prepare and market the area to attract businesses.

Singapore consortium appointed master developer of the start-up area. Second MoU inked for greater collaboration between Singapore and AP governments in economic and institutional development.

Land planning & management

When the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh was split

into two on 2 June 2014, the residuary state faced

the challenge of building a new capital as it was given

10 years to cede its existing capital, Hyderabad, to the

newly minted state of Telengana. Hyderabad is shared

by the two states currently. Thus, in September 2014,

the State Assembly of the new Andhra Pradesh (AP)

passed a resolution to establish a greenfield capital

on the banks of the Krishna River in the middle of

the state, between Vijayawada and Guntur cities.

The name "Amaravati"—abode of the gods or place

for immortals—was picked for the new city after a

well-known historical Buddhist town nearby.

The challenge The need to plan and develop a greenfield city

Mr Chandrababu Naidu, the first Chief Minister of the

new AP, began to embark systematically on two key

steps to kick-start the work of building the capital

city. The first was assembling the land required

through a land pooling exercise,1 with land acquisition

considered only as a last resort. The second major

step was setting out the vision and master plan for

the city. While there are numerous international urban

planning consultancies which could deliver city-scale

master plans, Chief Minister Naidu and his team were

aware that the task at hand would entail a holistic

approach going well beyond mere master planning to

the effective execution of those plans.

Andhra Pradesh partners with Singapore

A longtime admirer of Singapore, Chief Minister Naidu

approached its government to partner AP in the

master planning and development of Amaravati. As

the Singapore Government already had a committee

looking to further strategic and economic ties with

India, a team comprising Singapore’s Ministry of

Trade and Industry, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the

then International Enterprise Singapore,2 Singapore

Cooperation Enterprise, the Centre for Liveable

Cities (CLC), and the Building and Construction

Authority was able to respond quickly to the

request. A Memorandum of Understanding (MoU)

Amaravati Partnering for a new capital city

Faced with the monumental task of building a new capital, the Government of Andhra Pradesh sought to tap Singapore's experience in building a world-class sustainable and liveable city. This case study looks at how it has partnered Singapore in embarking on master planning, institution building, adopting a development strategy and capacity building.

Master planning

Drawing on Singapore’s urban planning experience

from its early days when it was helped by a United

Nations Development Programme (UNDP) team,3

the Singapore inter-agency team advocated an

integrated approach, beginning with a long-range

plan for the AP capital region. This would be a plan

not just for the capital city in isolation but one that

also considered the city’s broader economic role

and how it is physically connected with other cities

in the region such as Vijayawada and Guntur. The

other components of the plan are a capital city plan

and, given the scale of the endeavour, the “seed area

plan”, which is a plan for a priority development area.

AP’s newly set-up Capital Region Development

Authority (CRDA) and other state agencies in their

nascent stages of establishment needed to have the

master plans quickly so that they could focus more

attention on the implementation aspects. Hence,

Surbana International Consultants and Jurong

International,4 two Singapore urban planning firms

which began as government planning units and have

proven track records in developing cities, townships

and industrial parks in Singapore, India and globally,

were chosen to work in consultation with CRDA and

CLC to draw up three master plans:5 the Capital

Region plan involving a 7,325 km2 area within the

Vijayawada-Guntur-Tenali-Magalagiri boundary, the

Capital City plan involving 125 km2, and a detailed

3 In 1962, Singapore had requested technical assistance from the United Nations and help was delivered in three stages: a systematic urban renewal strategy for the overcrowded and slum-filled Central Area known as the Lorange plan, a strategy of project-based action programmes spearheaded by government agencies and coordinated by an overall physical guiding concept called the Koenigsberger plan, and the State and City Planning project with a planning consultancy engaged by UNDP working alongside Singapore government officials seconded to the project for a smooth transition to implementation.

4 Today known as Surbana-Jurong Private Limited.

5 The areas covered by the master plans were adjusted in consultation with CRDA during the drafting process. The master plans have also since undergone adaptation by CRDA, which gave first notification of these changes to the public in February 2016.

“seed area” master plan for 8 km2. The endeavour

included a regional socio-economic analysis and

demographic study and recommended a set of

strategies to enhance connectivity and undertake

transit-oriented urban development while protecting

agricultural zones, nature reserves and heritage areas.

To grow the economy, the master plan proposed

envisaging the city as a commercial hub for

existing regional industries such as agri-businesses

and logistics and new ones such as information

technology-enabled services and biotechnology.

Besides a Central Business District, commercial and

industrial zones near residential neighbourhoods

were proposed to promote job creation while reducing

commuting time. The plans also laid out transport

provisions via a Bus Rapid Transit system that can

eventually be upgraded to a Mass Rapid Transit

system complemented by non-motorised transport

choices, and infrastructure provisions, namely flood

management, water and power supply, sewerage

and solid waste systems. To leverage Amaravati’s

location beside the Krishna River, a blue and green

plan connecting existing greenery and waterways

was proposed to be integrated with residential

and recreational areas for residents. Innovative

approaches such as combining water bodies as flood

control-water storage facilities and as locales for

public enjoyment were included in the plans.

UPDATED CAPITAL CITY MASTER PLAN

Artist's impression of the gateway to Amaravati

“SustainableurbanisationmustbecomepartofourplanningDNA,forbothplannersinSingaporeandIndia.Itmustbeintrinsicandintegralinthewaywethinkaboutdevelopingourcities.” Minister Lawrence Wong, 15 November 2016

The master developer approach was proposed

for several reasons: For the AP Government, it

would benefit from the developer’s commitment

and partnership with it to develop value over a

long term such as adapting best practices from

Singapore to AP’s context. More importantly, the

master developer would contribute to on-the-ground

capacity building and knowledge transfer. Another

tangible contribution would be the developer’s

ability to catalyse investments into the state by

tapping onto its client networks and partners.

Also, having a master developer would mean

greater consideration for consistency in urban

design and architecture, which would help to

enhance the built environment.

18

ProgressInstitution Building and Governance

Even the best master plans can languish on

paper if a city lacks good governance and strong

institutions to carry through those plans. Hence,

as the master plans got underway, CRDA worked

to strengthen its institutional set-up by examining

aspects of Singapore’s legislation which could

be useful references, especially in the areas of

land-use and transport planning as well as land

management. A series of discussions between CRDA

and CLC, beginning with the inaugural “Andhra

Pradesh Leaders in Urban Governance Programme”

(APLUGP) in January 2015, were carried out to

craft CRDA’s overall vision and mission statements

and refine its organisational structure, key work

processes and the professional and technical

competencies required to staff the authority.

Development Strategy

Obtaining in-depth insights into what is entailed

in planning and managing a city is best achieved

by working together on a concrete project. This

is why, from the outset, Singapore conveyed the

need for a “seed development” to serve as a

demonstrative project.

Singapore also recommended a master developer

approach as the development strategy for the

start-up area. The vehicle for this would be a

Singapore private entity(ies), a developer of

international repute with strong engineering

and financial resources and a proven track record

of developing projects in Singapore, India and

the region.

6 A form of public procurement process that requires a public authority which has received an unsolicited bid for a public project to publish the bid and invite third parties to match or exceed it.

On 30 Oct 2015, a Singapore Consortium (SC) of

two established Singapore companies, Ascendas-

Singbridge Pte Ltd and Sembcorp Development

Ltd, submitted a proposal to the AP Government

to master-develop a start-up area of 6.84 km2. The

proposal was submitted via the Swiss Challenge

method,6 before being subjected to open competition,

which closed at end-February 2017. SC won the award

on 15 May 2017 and then formed a joint venture

with the AP Government’s Amaravati Development

Corporation, named Amaravati Development

Partners, to serve as the master developer.

The seed development, it is hoped, will not only

kick-start economic activity in the Amaravati Capital

Region, but will also enhance the value of land in the

region, benefitting the local population. In support of

this effort, Singapore agencies such as the recently

established Amaravati Partnership Office, Enterprise

Singapore, and the Building and Construction

Authority have been working closely with the AP

Government to attract Singapore companies to

pursue opportunities in AP’s industrial and business

clusters of high potential.

Capacity Building

Singapore’s partnership with AP recognises the

importance of human resource capacity building

in undergirding effective master planning,

development and governance. Numerous teams of

AP administrative and operations officials dealing

with water infrastructure, social housing, street-

side greenery and building control visited Singapore

between 2015 and 2016 to study these areas through

discussions and site visits.

Beyond the study visits and APLUGP, CLC in 2017

launched a series of “deep dive” workshops, which

delved into various topics such as land-use and

transport planning, development promotion, urban

design, housing and building construction, water

infrastructure, power, and solid waste management.

Helmed by seasoned practitioners who held senior

management positions in relevant Singapore

government agencies, these workshops have been

attended by close to 200 staff from CRDA and AP’s

state agencies.

Singapore’s capacity building efforts have extended

beyond planning and development issues to the areas

of security, education and public libraries.

Moving aheadIt is hoped that AP’s collaboration with Singapore

in pursuing an integrated master planning and

development approach, and in institution building

and governance, delivered via capacity building

platforms, will contribute to the building of a liveable

capital region for AP. A successful collaboration in this

respect will not just be a milestone in AP-Singapore

relations but could also have a demonstration effect

for other Indian states as they continue to meet their

urbanisation challenges.

Final piece of six-month process to design state's new capital city given to chiefminister

Nirmala Ganapathy India Bureau Chief

Capping a six-month-long process to design Andhra Pradesh's new capital city, Singapore

has handed over the masterplan to develop the heart of Amaravati in southern India.

The seed development masterplan, covering a 16.9 sq km area, is the final of three

masterplans, including one for the entire city and another for the capital region handed over

in March and May respectively, created by Surbana Jurong.

This third masterplan includes government buildings and the Central Business District.

The project, which opens up business opportunities for Singaporean companies, is one of the

largest infrastructure projects in India.

"What our planners are trying to do is to capture a vision and the aspirations of the people of

Andhra Pradesh and, at the same time, create a foundation for a city which is vibrant, liveable

and has good infrastructure, good economic development," Mr S. Iswaran, Second Minister

for Home Affairs and Trade and Industry, said yesterday, after handing over the masterplan to

Andhra Pradesh's Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.

"The next important stage is the development stage when plans are turned into reality.

"We are looking forward to continuing our partnership with Andhra," said Mr Iswaran.

Amaravati, named after an ancient Buddhist city, is being created from the ground up in the

Guntur Vijayawada area after Andhra Pradesh lost its capital Hyderabad to the new state of

Telangana, created last year. Geographically, Hyderabad falls under the new state.

Mr Naidu is seeking to lay the foundation stone, marking the beginning of construction, for

the new city on Oct 22 and is looking at completing the first of five phases of the seed

development masterplan that includes government buildings, by 2018 - ahead of state

elections in 2019.

It is estimated that 300,000 people will be living in the city centre, which has been designed

based on the principles of Vaastu - an ancient science of architecture.

Ahead of that, the Andhra Pradesh government will choose an Amaravati Development

Partner to oversee the construction through a bidding process.

Urban planning is currently in focus in India with Prime Minister Narendra Modi launching

an initiative to create 100 modern cities to cope with an urban population expected to grow

from 31 per cent to 40 per cent by 2030.

Mr Teo Eng Cheong , chief executive of International Enterprise Singapore, said: "This

masterplan demonstrates Singapore's capabilities and paves the way for future partnerships

in India, across sectors such as urban planning, infrastructure and supporting services."

TRANSIT

The challengeCoimbatore in Tamil Nadu is among India’s fast growing tier

II cities, with a population of over 1.6 million.1 Its vibrant

manufacturing and IT industries have attracted a continuous

stream of labour, and the resulting new settlements have

stretched the city’s limits to 642.12 km2. This unplanned and

uncoordinated development has led to traffic congestion,

inadequate sanitation and depleting water resources.

The solutionCoimbatore decided to develop a comprehensive master

plan that integrates peripheral developments with the city

core and aligns regional water and sanitation infrastructure

plans with the city’s requirements. With a planning horizon

of 25 years, the new GIS-based plan is for a larger area of

2,869 km2 with a projected population of 3 million. It adopts

Transit-Oriented planning and mixed-use developments as

a key strategy to ensure compact development. The plan,

which is in its final phase of drafting, will be integrated with

Coimbatore’s Smart City proposal and its draft mobility plan.

The challengeLocated just outside New Delhi, Gurugram1 is a bustling

economic powerhouse. With a population of 1.5 million,2 the

city faces a severe shortage of public transport services.

There is only one metro line linking the city to New Delhi and

a light metro rail. Its handful of ageing public buses ply limited

routes. As a result, traffic snarls are endemic.

The solutionGurugram’s strategy is to massively overhaul its bus

transport system and expand its rail system. To ensure

professional management and operation, the Gurugram

Metropolitan City Bus Limited has been formed. Bus

infrastructure will be ramped up, with 500 new buses to

ply new routes and an addition of five bus depots. By mid-

2018, 100 new buses are expected to hit the roads. Bus wait

times will be shortened to 7.5–10 minutes and commuters

will soon be able to get live updates via mobile apps.

Commuter surveys have been undertaken to identify service

gaps and determine last mile connection needs. Once the

improvements are in place, daily bus ridership is expected to

be in the range of 300,000.

Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation(AMRUT)

Transit IN BRIEF

ObjectivesProviding basic services to households and building

amenities in cities that will directly improve the

quality of life for all, especially the poor and the

disadvantaged, is a national priority for India.

On 25 June 2015, the Government of India launched

the Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban

Transformation (AMRUT) with a view to:

(i) ensuring universal coverage of water supply

and substantial coverage in provision of

sewerage facilities;

(ii) increasing the amenity value of cities by developing

greenery and well-maintained open spaces (e.g.,

parks); and

(iii) reducing pollution by constructing facilities for

non-motorised transport (e.g., walking and cycling).

The Mission focuses on the following thrust areas:

• Water supply;

• Sewerage facilities and septage management;

• Storm water drains to reduce flooding;

• Pedestrian, non-motorised and public transport

facilities and parking spaces; and

• Enhancing the amenity value of cities by creating

and upgrading green spaces, parks and recreation

centres, especially for children.

COVERAGE. AMRUT covers 500 cities under the

following categories:

• All Cities/Towns that have populations exceeding

1 lakh (100,000) ;

• All Cities/Towns classified as Heritage Cities under

the HRIDAY Scheme for heritage city development;

• 13 Cities/Towns on the stems of the main rivers that

have populations above 75,000 but less than 1 lakh

(100,000) each;

• 10 Cities from hill states, islands and tourist

destinations (not more than one from each State).

REFORMS. A cornerstone of AMRUT is the

implementation of 11 urban reforms such as

e-governance, constitution of professional municipal

cadres, devolving funds and functions, review of

building bylaws, setting up of financial intermediaries,

improvement in the assessment and collection of

municipal taxes and fees, credit rating

of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs), energy and water

audits, and citizen-centric urban planning.

FundingThe total outlay is Rs. 50,000 crores (S$10 billion)

for five years from FY 2015–16 to FY 2019–20 and

the Mission will be operated as a Centrally Sponsored

Scheme. AMRUT may be continued thereafter

following an evaluation by the Ministry of Housing

and Urban Affairs (MoHUA).

ProgressThe programme outcomes have been valued by

citizens, particularly women. The following steps have

been taken so far:

• The State Annual Action Plans of all 36 States/

Union Territories (UTs) have been finalised,

with a total proposed investment of Rs. 77,640

crores (S$16 billion), of which Rs. 35,890 crores

(S$7 billion) is the Central Government’s share;

• 310 projects costing Rs. 190.78 crores (S$38 million)

have been completed;

• 1,657 projects costing Rs. 34,454 crores (S$6.9

billion) have been awarded;

• Tenders have been invited for 769 projects worth

Rs. 12,504 crores (S$2.5 billion);

• Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for 1,160 projects

worth Rs. 11,002 crores (S$2.2 billion) have

been approved;

• In keeping with the incentive-based approach to

reforms, a sum of Rs. 900 crores (S$181 million)

has been released to the States/UTs for the years

2016–17 and 2017–18.

HERITAGE CONSERVATION

The challengeThe Himalayan city of Gangtok,

capital of Sikkim, has a density of

more than 5,000 persons per km2,

with 100,2861 persons spread over

19 km2. It faces severe congestion:

its topography is characterised by

steep gradients and irregular road

alignments, resulting in narrow

carriageways. This limits conventional

public transport services to only 2%

of modal share.

The solutionGangtok’s goal was to adopt

alternative transport systems that are

reliable, easy to install, operate and

maintain, have minimal environmental

impact, allow intermodal integration,

provide good internal rates of return

(IRR), and can boost the residents’

quality of life. The State of Sikkim

decided on a ropeway system,

which suits the city’s topography

and can potentially bring about

transformational change. Gangtok

currently has one tourist cable car

and plans to expand its network.

successful ropeway system was

the availability of GIS spatial data.

Community engagement uncovered

concerns for safety, particularly over

power outages; these were addressed

through system design. The detailed

plans for the ropeway transit system

are currently awaiting approval from

the Ministry of Housing and Urban

Affairs. If approved, the Ministry

will fund up to 90% of the cost,

with the State of Sikkim providing

the remainder. The Government of

Sikkim is also considering supporting

infrastructure such as public rugged

escalators, FoB (foot over bridge),

and transit-oriented developments to

ensure the project is a success.

The challengeJaisalmer, in the State of Rajasthan, stands out for

its heritage dominated by havelis (ancient mansions)

and monuments built with yellow stone. At its centre

lies Jaisalmer Fort, a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Its heritage buildings are in need of protection

and preservation while modern amenities are

incorporated. Present-day construction techniques

and materials using exposed cement, glass and steel

have affected the aesthetics, grandeur and heritage

value of the buildings. Telephone poles, electric lines

and billboards further mar the city’s skyline. The lack

of funds has deterred the state and private building

owners from undertaking costly conservation works.

The solutionWith inputs from the Archaeological Survey of India,

the Municipal Board, and the Urban Improvement

Trust, Rajasthan’s Department of Town Planning

formulated the "New Building Regulations" in 2015 to

balance current needs, heritage character and visual

integrity. The city will be divided into zones, each with

specified development guidelines. Street facades are

to be unified and all utilities to be placed underground.

A Heritage Fund will be established to raise funds for

building conservation through tourist contributions.

Draft Site Management Plans are being finalised.

A Jaisalmer Fort Management Authority will be

set up to perform municipal functions, implement

regulations and undertake repairs of heritage

properties. Residents will be incentivised to maintain

their properties or resettle elsewhere if their

properties are uninhabitable without development.

The Rajasthan Government has allocated Rs. 2

crores (S$403,000) for the preservation of the fort

Heritage City Development and Augmentation Yojana (HRIDAY)

Heritage conservation IN BRIEF

ObjectivesIndia is endowed with rich and diverse natural, historic

and cultural resources. However, it is yet to explore

the full potential of these resources. Past efforts at

conserving historic and cultural resources in India’s

cities and towns have often been carried out with little

consideration for the main development challenges

they face and in isolation of the needs and aspirations

of local communities. Heritage city development is not

about protecting and conserving a few monuments;

rather, it is about comprehensive planning and

development of the entire city—from infrastructure

provision, delivery of basic services, growing the

local economy and providing for the livelihoods of the

people, ensuring the quality of life of communities,

and reinvigorating the soul of the city.

The Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs launched

the Heritage City Development and Augmentation

Yojana (HRIDAY) on 21 January 2015. HRIDAY

offers tremendous opportunity for an integrated,

inclusive and sustainable development of India’s

heritage cities. Its main objective is to preserve the

character and soul of the heritage city and facilitate

inclusive heritage-linked urban development by

exploring various avenues, including harnessing

the private sector.

The duration of the Mission is four years starting in

December 2014 and ending in November 2018.

COMPONENTSANDSTRATEGY. The Mission covers 12

cities, namely: Ajmer, Amaravati, Amritsar, Badami,

Dwarka, Gaya, Kanchipuram, Mathura, Puri, Varanasi,

Velankanni and Warangal.

The Mission broadly focuses on four theme areas

for reviving and revitalising the soul of heritage

cities, i.e., Physical Infrastructure, Institutional

Infrastructure, Economic Infrastructure and

Social Infrastructure.

The projects can be funded directly or through

support from other stakeholders, including the private

sector. The following is a broad indicative list of

components under the four broad themes, which

can be refined, based on the needs of each city:

• Preparation of a City HRIDAY Plan;

• Heritage revitalisation linked to service provision;

• City information/knowledge management and

skills development.

FundingThe Mission is fully funded by the Central

Government. The total outlay is Rs. 500 crores

(S$101 million).

ProgressThus far, 66 projects have been approved at a

cost of Rs. 420.44 crores (S$85 million), and 46%

of the funds have been released. Of these, three

projects have been completed and 52 contracts

are ongoing.

The Historic City is defined by its close-knit urban

settlement form, rooted in ancient town planning

wisdom. The pols capture the essence of community

living and lend the Historic City its unique pulsating

character. A typical pol precinct is structured

around narrow meandering streets, flanked by

two-storeyed houses and punctuated with markets,

chowks (squares), community wells and chabutros (bird

feeders). The pol houses have intricate carvings

on their facades and were designed to be climate

responsive, with internal open courtyards that filter

sunlight, shafts that circulate cool air, underground

rainwater tanks, and efficient distribution of space

within tight plot sizes. The 15th–16th century

monuments of the Historic City showcase a fine

fusion of Indo-Islamic design principles and

aesthetic values.

Ahmedabad

AhmedabadBalancing the Old with the NewUnchecked growth, neglect of its built heritage and the lack of development controls had led to a degradation of the architecture and splendour of what is commonly known as the walled city of Ahmedabad. How did this city make a remarkable transition to a UNESCO World Heritage city? This case study looks at the measures the Historic City of Ahmedabad took towards regaining its past glory and the challenges that remain.

Ahmedabad

The challengeAhmedabad is the State of Gujarat’s largest city, a

modern commercial metropolis with a population of

5.57 million1 spread over 464 km2. It enjoys a rich

cultural and historical legacy. The city is at once

home to 600-year-old heritage structures and the

post-modernist buildings of Le Corbusier, Louis Kahn

and Frank Lloyd Wright. One of its most celebrated

features is its historic city, a 5.35 km2 fortified

enclave located in the city centre. Established in 1411

by Sultan Ahmed Shah and continuously occupied

since, the Historic City is an architectural treasure

trove and a living heritage, with 2,600 heritage

sites, 28 protected monuments,2 and 600-odd pols

or traditional housing clusters with nearly 375,0003

residents. However, the Historic City could not

escape the pressures of modern day development,

which have taken a toll on its character and led to

its decline in recent decades.

In 2012, Ahmedabad received SpecialMention under the Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize, an international award honouring outstanding achievements in the creation of liveable, vibrant and sustainable urban communities, for a series of urban redevelopment projects it undertook, namely the Bus Transport System, the Kankaria Lake redevelopment and the Sabarmati Riverfront projects, Ahmedabad sought to make itself a liveable, equitable and sustainable metropolis.

The solutionPreserving and maintaining centuries-old built heritage

in a rapidly growing city is a complex endeavour. In

the case of the Historic City, it has involved careful

planning, administrative reforms, collaborations and the

involvement of civil society.

On the institutional side, concerted efforts began

in 1984, when conservationists, together with the

Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC) and the Ford

Foundation, instituted a study to initiate conservation

policies. Following this, in 1996, AMC, with assistance

from the Conservation and Research of Urban

Traditional Architecture (CRUTA) Foundation, set up

a Heritage Cell, becoming the first Indian city-level

administration to have a dedicated heritage department.

Over the next few years, the Heritage Cell, through a

series of collaborations, rolled out a conservation and

urban regeneration plan.

A "Walled City Revitalisation Plan” was drafted,

which highlighted the need to modify the old heritage

regulations and reduce the density allowed for new

constructions.4 New regulations prohibiting the

demolition of heritage structures were introduced. These

were later amended to make it mandatory for heritage

property owners to seek the Heritage Cell’s advice and

approval before undertaking repair and renovations.

Further, a Heritage Conservation Committee was

formed by the Gujarat State Government to oversee

conservation activities, not only for the walled city

but also for urban areas that are part of the greater

Ahmedabad urban agglomeration, managed by the

Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA).

AUDA’s Development Plan 2021 introduced regulations

exclusively for the Historic City, defining building uses,

setbacks, permissible extensions, floor space indexes

(FSI) and guidelines for parking provisions.

Despite its splendour, the Historic City

faces unrelenting development pressures.

Owing to a lack of modern-day amenities

and changes to the social fabric, several

families emigrated to the western parts

of Ahmedabad, leaving the pol houses

vacant and in a state of neglect. For

higher rents, some owners let out these

houses for commercial activity, including

for non-compatible uses such as

warehousing and manufacturing. Narrow

streets originally designed for pedestrian

movement are heavily congested with

two-wheelers, auto-rickshaws and

buses. Sections of the city walls were

demolished to make way for wider

roads. Inadequate development controls

have resulted in the mushrooming of

illegal and insensitive developments.

Restoration of these properties is often

beyond the means of their owners, some

of whom have found it far more lucrative

to sell off to real estate developers.

ProgressThe two decades of efforts have borne fruit. In 2011,

Ahmedabad was nominated for UNESCO’s World

Heritage City status. Over the next six years, a team

of conservationists, architects and students from the

Centre for Conservation Studies and CEPT University

diligently studied and documented the Historic City in

granular detail, and prepared a Heritage Management

Plan. In recognition of the richness of its 600-year old

living heritage, in 2017, the Historic City of Ahmedabad

was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage City.

Restoration works and community engagement

activities have helped to recreate interest in the

pols. Private entrepreneurs have invested in the

restoration of some of the havelis (ancient mansions)

and transformed them into boutique hotels,

museums, performing art spaces, etc. The city’s

heritage status is expected to increase tourist

inflows and generate revenue, which can be

channelled for conservation works.

Oppositepic The Shaking Minarets, a rich 15th century architectural legacyLeftpic Bird feeders, dotting the pol landscape

View of the conserved Chinatown district in Singapore, visited by programme participants

While much has been done to preserve heritage,

several complex challenges prevail. Basic services,

such as garbage management, as well as pollution

and ageing infrastructure require urgent attention.

Illegal demolition of heritage structures continues.

Attempts to regulate vehicular movement have

yielded mixed results, and congestion continues

unabated. Significant funds are needed to undertake

all the heritage management plans and projects

proposed in the dossier presented to UNESCO.

In its Heritage Management Plan, AMC has identified

a list of immediate action steps that will be taken

in the short to medium term. These include

preparation of a Local Area Plan, heritage bylaws,

urban design plans, strengthening of the regulatory

framework, dissemination of conservation guidelines,

restoration of traditional water harvesting systems,

public awareness and several restoration projects.

The administration assesses that now is the best

time to roll out new plans, nudge social behavior

towards greater civic responsibility and garner

more community support to sustain the

conservation efforts.

As the Historic City pushes forward its conservation

plans, it can take heart from the fact that some of

those who had once left the city are slowly returning

to reclaim its old glory and continue its legacy as a

living heritage. 5 Using the TDR, property owners can sell development rights to another person

or agency, who may use it for development in other parts of the city.

Collaborations have been effectively used as a way of

gaining insights into new-age conservation methods

and raising local and international interest in the

Historic City’s heritage value. AMC partnered the

French government to survey and create an extensive

database of the Historic City’s heritage structures and

carry out restoration works. The Dutch government

was roped in to restore the city’s Dutch-era buildings.

Several restorations projects are being undertaken

with the Archaeological Survey of India, which

manages the listed buildings and their precincts. With

time, the Heritage Cell built up its in-house technical

capabilities on conservation and restoration works.

In a bid to make renovation financially viable,

AMC and AUDA partnered the Housing and Urban

Development Corporation Ltd to offer subsidised-

interest loans for repair and restoration. Local banks

and religious trusts also lent financial assistance

for restoration works. Recently, AUDA introduced

the “Tradable Development Rights (TDR)" policy5

for listed heritage structures whereby a tradable

FSI ranging between 0.3 and 0.5 is assigned to each

building according to its heritage value. Property

owners can trade their FSIs to generate revenue

for restoration works.

The activities of the Heritage Cell also successfully

drew on Ahmedabad’s vibrant civil society, the pol residents and the entrepreneurial acumen of its

generations-old wealthy families who were patrons

of the city’s art and architecture. These activities

included heritage walks through the historic quarters

and “soft” activities such as poetry recitals and

street-plays to generate interest in the pols. Reviving

age-old traditions of community-led discussions, the

Heritage Cell also held meetings in the pols with the

residents to understand their concerns and generate

buy-in for the conservation plans.

Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban)

Housing for All Mission by 2022

Affordable Housing IN BRIEF

ObjectivesRapid movements of people from rural to urban

areas have meant a lack of affordable housing,

poor quality housing and homelessness in many of

India’s urban areas. On 25 January 2015, the Indian

Government launched the “Pradhan Mantri Awas

Yojana (Urban)—Housing for All Mission by 2022” with

a view to ensuring housing for all in the urban areas.

The Mission, intended to be implemented during

2015–2022, provides Central Government assistance

to eligible families/beneficiaries across all 4,041

statutory towns.

The Mission has the following four verticals:

(i) In-situ Slum Redevelopment (ISSR): A grant of

Rs. 1 lakh (S$2,000) per house is available for all

houses built for eligible slum dwellers. The scheme

involves using land as a resource and envisages

the participation of private developers.

(ii) Credit-Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS):

Beneficiaries from the Economically Weaker

Section (EWS)/Low Income Group (LIG),

Middle Income Group (MIG)-I and Middle Income

Group (MIG)-II seeking housing loans from banks,

housing finance companies and other such

institutions for acquiring/constructing houses

are eligible for an interest subsidy of 6.5%,

4% and 3% on loan amounts up to Rs. 6 lakh

(S$12,000), Rs. 9 lakh (S$18,000) and Rs. 12

lakh (S$24,000), respectively.

(iii) Affordable Housing in Partnership (AMP) with the

public or private sector: Assistance of Rs, 1.5 lakh

(S$3,000) per EWS house is provided by the Central

Government where these are in housing projects

containing at least 250 houses, at least 35% of

which should be in the EWS category.

(iv) Beneficiary-led Individual House Construction/

enhancements (BLC): Central Government

assistance of Rs. 1.5 lakh (S$3,000) per house

is available to eligible individual families from

the EWS category.

Progress• The Central Government has approved assistance

for 30 lakh (3 million) houses; of these, 21 lakh (2.1

million) have been constructed, and 75% of them

have since been occupied by the beneficiaries.

• Home loan subsidies have been disbursed to about

1 lakh (100,000) beneficiaries from the EWS, LIG

and MIG categories.

• A Schedule of Rates (SoR) has been prepared for

three new technologies that will be adopted in this

project. Funds have been allocated for Technology

Sub-Mission activities such as the

global construction challenge.Aside from quantity and quality of housing, best practice housing integrates facilities, services and job opportunities within close distance.

The challengeMadhya Pradesh has an estimated urban affordable

housing shortage of 1.1 million.1 This shortage is

acutely felt among the urban poor, classified as the

Economically Weaker Section (EWS) and Low Income

Group (LIG). The supply and uptake of government-

built affordable houses is constrained owing to issues

of affordability, high land and development costs,

poor housing design, banks’ lending reluctance and

low private sector participation.

The solutionIn 2014, the state set a target of constructing

500,000 EWS and LIG homes by 2018.2 The housing

policy was redesigned and aligned with the Central

Government’s “Housing for All” programme. On the

demand side, affordability has been improved through

government-facilitated debt restructuring involving

loan repayment guarantees, an interest subsidy (5%)

and a low monthly instalment scheme. On the supply

side, land required for these projects will be released

expediently at token rates. More mixed-income and

mixed-use projects are planned, whereby revenue

from the sale of commercial and higher-priced units

will subsidise the cost of building low income units.

Housing designs are also being customised according

to the residents’ lifestyle needs. So far, 75,000

affordable housing units have been constructed

and 200,000 are under construction.

The challengeWhile the level of urbanisation is lower in Bihar

at 10.5%, compared to the national average of

approximately 28%, its urban poverty level is much

higher, at 32.91%, compared to the national average

of 23.62%. This has resulted in an affordable housing

deficit of 1.2 million dwelling units. Naturally, long term

residents are reluctant to be uprooted from slums,

affecting effective action. Much resident engagement

is needed for households to agree to move from slums

to better housing options to improve the quality of life.

The solutionThe Bihar government is addressing this through

its “Affordable Housing Policy”, which supports

projects under private partnership. Innovative

initiatives under the new scheme include:

redevelopment of existing slum land with grants of

Rs. 1–1.5 lakh (S$2,000–3,000) per house, subsidies

for economically weak communities and lower

income groups, provision of public housing through

parastatal agencies, or integrating affordable

housing into private developments. A demonstration

precinct is also being developed as a model for

future development . The project is supported by the

"Housing for All" national scheme.

COMPONENTS. The major components of this AMRUT

sub-scheme are Urban Database Creation at the scale

of 1:4000 according to the prescribed Design and

Standards, Formulation of Master Plans on the GIS

base map, and Capacity Building.

TIMELINES.The total time period for base map

generation, including data acquisition, geo-referencing,

GPS (Global Positioning System) surveys, data

processing, ground-truthing, generation of thematic

layers, etc., according to the Design and Standards for

500 cities is 24 months. The time period for urban data

collection, data analysis and master plan formulation

up to the draft proposal stage is 36 months.

PROCESS.

BUDGET. The total cost of this sub-scheme under

AMRUT is Rs. 515.00 crores (S$104 million), with

the following breakdown:

• geo-spatial database creation: Rs. 115.90 crores

(S$23 million);

• plan formulation, including data collection &

analysis: Rs. 388.25 crores (S$78 million); and

• capacity building: Rs. 10.85 crores (S$2 million).

IMPLEMENTATIONMECHANISM. Although, all the reform

activities under AMRUT are reviewed on a regular

basis, this particular reform will be monitored

as follows:

At State Level: The State Level Technical

Committee (SLTC) will oversee the progress

of the technical implementation of the reform

and the State Level High-Powered Steering

Committee will look into overall coordination and

implementation of the reform.

At Central Government Level: Periodic and

detailed monitoring and review of the reform

state-wise will be carried out by the Space

Technology Application Cell created at the Town

and Country Planning Organisation (TCPO)

by the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs.

The Cell will submit its recommendations to a

National Monitoring and Review Committee. The

Monitoring and Review Committee will in turn

report to the Technical Advisory Committee

which will further report to the Apex Committee,

of AMRUT. The Apex Committee will monitor/

review the overall progress and achievements of

the reform and address any inter-agency issues.

ProgressNational meetings involving 218 State Mission

Directors/State Nodal Officers were held in June

and October 2016 and September 2017 to discuss

the modalities of implementing the scheme. A

National Monitoring & Review Committee, under

the chairmanship of TCPO’s Chief Planner has been

set up and two meetings have been held so far, in

November 2017 and January 2018.

The challengeUrban settlements in India have experienced

rapid population growth: the percentage of India’s

population living in urban areas more than doubled

from 14% at the time of independence to 31.8% in

20111. By 2051, India is expected to be considered an

urban nation, with more than 50% of the population

living in urban areas.

As part of a series of efforts to ensure that urban

development is equitable and sustainable, the

Indian Government launched the Atal Mission for

Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT)

in June 2015. The objective of AMRUT is to ensure

that 500 selected cities have, among other things,

universal coverage of water supply, substantial

coverage in provision of sewerage facilities and

ample facilities for non-motorised transport.

The tools for delivering coherent and sustainable

urban development missions such as AMRUT are

Master Plans/Development Plans. These allow

for optimum land-use. Most Master/Development

Plans are formulated for 20-year periods, in

phases of five years for periodic review and

revision. The formulation of a master plan starts

with base map preparation, existing land-use

surveys, collection of the socio-economic data

necessary for reviewing the existing situation

and then proposing a future land-use plan. The

most crucial information required is an accurate

and updated base map of the planning area,

showing roads and building layouts, spatial extent

of development, information on the use of each

parcel of land, etc.

AMRUT CitiesUsing GIS to enhance master planning

Smart Solutions

Conventional mapping and data gathering

mechanisms, however, cannot keep pace with rapid

population growth and frenetic urban growth: these

trends make it hard to track the spatial growth of

towns/cities, land-use status and the status of the

country’s physical infrastructure.

The solutionAdvances in remote sensing and Geographic

Information Systems (GIS) can expedite the Master

Plan process through the integration of both spatial

and attribute data. These systems enable detailed

real-time monitoring, updating and assessment

of elements such as the spatial growth of towns/

cities, land-use status, and physical infrastructure

in anticipation of projected population growth.

Preparation of base maps from Very High Resolution

Satellite (VHRS) images and GIS technology can be a

time- and cost-effective solution.

The formulation of GIS-based Master/Development

Plans is one of the key reforms under AMRUT. The

reform was approved in October 2015 as a 100%

centrally funded sub-scheme.

OBJECTIVEOFGIS-BASEDMASTERPLANSFORAMRUT. To develop

common digital geo-referenced base maps and land-use

maps using GIS and Master Plan formulation for 500

cities selected under the AMRUT Urban Mission.

ObjectivesThe Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA)

launched the “Smart Cities” Mission on 25 June

2015. The objective of this bold, new initiative is to

promote cities that provide core infrastructure and

give a decent quality of life to citizens, deliver a clean

and sustainable environment and apply “Smart”

solutions. The focus is on sustainable and inclusive

development. The idea is to look at compact areas

and create a replicable model that will act as a beacon

to other aspiring cities, both within and outside the

Smart City, thus catalysing the creation of similar

Smart Cities elsewhere in the country.

The core infrastructure elements of a Smart City

include:

(i) Adequate water supply;

(ii) Assured electricity supply;

(iii) Sanitation, including solid waste management;

(iv) Efficient urban mobility and public transport;

(v) Affordable housing, especially for the poor;

(vi) Robust IT connectivity and digitisation;

(vii) Good governance, especially e-governance

and citizen participation;

(viii) Sustainable environment;

(ix) Safety and security of citizens, particularly

women, children and the elderly; and

(x) Health and education.

COVERAGEANDSTRATEGY. The Mission will cover 100 cities

for a duration of five years (FY2015–16 to FY2019–

20). The selection of Smart Cities is based on the idea

of competitive and cooperative federalism and follows

a challenge process to select cities in two stages.

The strategic components of the Mission are

city improvement (retrofitting), city renewal

(redevelopment) and city extension (greenfield

development) plus a pan-city initiative in which Smart

Solutions are applied covering larger parts of the city.

FundingThe Mission will be operated as a Centrally Sponsored

Scheme and the Central Government proposes to give

financial support of Rs. 48,000 crores (S$9.6 billion)

over five years, i.e., an average of Rs. 100 crores

(S$20 million) per city per year. A matching amount

will have to be contributed by the State/Urban Local

Body (ULB).

ProgressA total of 99 Smart Cities have been selected since

January 2016. A total investment of Rs. 2,03,979.00

crores (S$41 billion) has been proposed by these 99

under their Smart City Plans:

• Projects focusing on revamping an identified area

(Area Based Development) are estimated to cost

Rs. 1,63,138 crores (S$33 billion).

• Smart initiatives across the city (pan-city

initiatives) account for Rs. 38,841 crores (S$77

billion) of investments.

• An amount of Rs. 2,000 crores (S$402 million) has

been kept aside for operations and maintenance

and other contingencies.

Mr Jawahar P, CEO, Puducherry Smart City Development Ltd

Completed in 1987, the Singapore river clean-up enabled Singapore’s riverine transformations. The clean-up included strengthening environmental infrastructure and regulations, which unlocked the potential contained in the areas surrounding Singapore’s waterways. Clarke Quay, formerly a major trans-shipment and trade passageway, was one such area. It had been earmarked for transformation into a festive commercial and heritage zone by the 1985 Singapore River Concept Plan and 1986 Conservation plan respectively. The government land sales programme for conservation sites then allowed for a public-private partnership to create a lively entertainment zone in Clarke Quay while keeping its heritage.

2 Puducherry Smart City Proposal, http://pondicherrysmartcity.in/images/pdf/Puducherry%20Smart%20City%20Proposal%202017.pdf

The challengeDutch town planning and French architectural

influences abound in Pondicherry, a small 19.62

km2 city in South India known for its eclectic mix

of east and west. The Grand Canal, which bisects

the old French and Tamil quarters, reflects this

heritage. Yet, years of neglect had left the canal

derelict. Built as a stormwater drain by the

French around 1765, it had become polluted

and an eyesore.

The solutionThe year 2015 marked the canal’s renaissance.

Cleaning commenced in conjunction with the

Central Government’s Swacch Bharat mission,1

and the Smart Cities Mission was subsequently

identified as the vehicle to catalyse the

transformation of the canal and surrounding areas.

Pondicherry

Ideas were then sourced worldwide on how best

to transform the canal. Singapore lent inspiration

with the Singapore River clean-up and the

transformation of Clarke Quay into a lifestyle

hub. Singapore’s “Active, Beautiful, Clean Waters”

programme too demonstrated how concrete canals

could be transformed into vibrant public spaces.

Draft Site Management Plans are being finalised.

Pondicherry Smart City Development Limited,

a Special Purpose vehicle, was subsequently

set up in September 2017 to execute the canal’s

transformation, with the French government

promising funding and technical assistance.

Extensive public consultations were held,

combining global best practices with local voices

to ensure social inclusion.2

The challengeRapid urbanisation and widespread sprawl in

Maharashtra has depleted green cover and increased

urban vulnerability to climate change. India’s urban

populations have less than 1 m2 of green space per

capita, or less than 0.1 trees per capita.

The solutionThe Government of Maharashtra launched an initiative

named “AMRUTVAN” (nectar forest) under its

“Greening Policy” to increase green cover up to 15%

in urban areas. The programme is funded under the

Central Government’s Atal Mission for Rejuvenation

and Urban Transformation (AMRUT) programme.

AMRUTVANs are envisioned not only to enrich

local biodiversity, but also to be heat mitigation

centres amidst urban infrastructure. The State has

appointed landscaping agencies, regularised green

space development to include at least 80% of total

project costs for “green” components, created plant

specifications to ensure optimum survival of plants and

encouraged the reuse of waste materials. It has also

promoted the composting of organic waste, launching

its own brand, Harit: Maha City Compost.

Thus far, 128 greening projects have been approved. As

a result, tree cover, excluding forest areas, has increased

by 18.8% (1,562 km2). The amount of carbon dioxide

absorbed by forest paths increased by 16.65%.

Swachh Bharat Mission (Urban)

Sustainable Environment IN BRIEF

ObjectivesClose to eight million Indian households in 4,041

statutory towns have no access to toilets;1 they

defecate in the open. The Swachh Bharat Mission

(SBM) arises from the Indian Government’s vision

articulated in the President’s address to a Joint

Parliamentary Session on 9 June 2014: “We must not

tolerate the indignity of homes without toilets and

public spaces littered with garbage.” The Mission was

launched in October 2014 with a view to ensuring

hygiene, waste management and sanitation across

the nation. SBM is being implemented by the Ministry

of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) in the 4,041

statutory towns.2

The main objectives of the Mission are:

• To eliminate open defecation;

• To eradicate manual scavenging;

• To provide modern and scientific municipal solid

waste management;

• To generate awareness about sanitation and its

linkage with public health;

• To effect behavioral change regarding healthy

sanitation practices;

• To augment capacity for Urban Local Bodies

(ULBs) to create an enabling environment for

private sector participation.

COVERAGEANDSTRATEGY. The Mission’s components

include: construction of household toilets (including

conversion of insanitary latrines into pour-flush ones),

construction of community/public toilets, and solid

waste management.

The strategy includes:

• comprehensive sanitation planning, i.e., the

formulation of a State sanitation concept and

strategy and of city-level sanitation plans;

• formulation and implementation of a behavioural

change strategy and an information, education

and communication campaign to create public

awareness of sanitation and hygiene issues; and

• creation of an enabling environment for private

sector participation.

Funding• The estimated cost of implementing SBM (Urban)

based on unit and per capita costs for its various

components is Rs. 62,009 crores (S$12.5 billion).

• The Central Government’s share is Rs. 14,623 crores

(S$2.9 billion).

• A minimum additional amount equivalent to 25% of

the Central Government’s share of Rs. 4,874 crores

(S$980 million) will be contributed by the States.

• The balance will be generated through various other

sources, which are, but not limited to: (i) private

sector participation, (ii) beneficiary shares, (iii)

user charges, (iv) land leveraging, (v) innovative

revenue streams, (vi) corporate social responsibility

contributions, (vii) borrowing on the market, and

(viii) external assistance.

Progress• As of March 2018, Rs. 6,134 crores (S$1.2 billion)

has been spent.

• Toilets constructed thus far:

› 432,2776 individual household toilets;

› 280,347 community/public toilets.

• Solid waste management:

› Door-to-door collection and transportation:

100% achieved in 51,734 wards;

› Processing and disposal: up to 27.11% achieved.

Sustainable Environment

AmbikapurTurning trash into cash

From humble beginnings, Ambikapur catalysed a change in solid waste management throughout Chhattisgarh through a comprehensive waste management programme. The key to its success was its programme design, which included elements of citizen engagement, improving perception of garbage collection, providing a source of livelihood for poor urban women, and turning waste into an income-generating resource.

Ambikapur

Leftpic The new system uses lightweight vehicles suitable for women to operate and which can access all parts of the city. Toppic Participants visited Singapore's Gardens by the Bay; its Waste to Energy plant supplies energy to its greenhouses.

The challengeThe Municipal Corporation of Ambikapur, a mid-sized

city in Chhattisgarh with a population of 112,449

people,1 was once straining to provide an effective

solid waste management system. The city suffered

from choked drains, littered public areas and illegal

dump sites. Hygiene and public health were affected

as a result. Where waste was collected, it was largely

landfilled, with the remainder being informally sorted

by rag pickers, indiscriminately buried, or burnt.

Like most Indian cities, Ambikapur struggled to

comply with the national Solid Waste Management

Rules, introduced in 2000. Initiatives based on

public–private partnerships (PPPs) often suffered

from financial unsustainability owing to a lack of

scale. Furthermore, PPPs were often criticised as

being “profit centric [rather] than service centric”,2

owing to their uneven services and high cost to users.

Clustering of municipal waste collection services was

often not an option owing to the large distances of

50–80 km between Urban Local Bodies (ULBs).

The solutionThe Ambikapur Municipal Corporation sought

to solve the problem through consultation with

its stakeholders and civil society. Through these

consultations, parameters were set for an ideal

Solid and Liquid Waste Management (SLWM) model,3

namely, that it would:

A. Be cost efficient;

B. Be simple to implement, not requiring high

technology;

C. Support the livelihoods of the urban poor;

D. Be driven by community-based structures, ideally

dominated by women;

E. Support the scientific disposal of waste;

F. Be environmentally and financially self-sustaining;

and

G. Add a level of dignity to the collection and

management of waste.

Based on these parameters, a door-to-door collection

system with solid waste sorting and recycling was

preferred. The design of the programme was critical

to its success. The “Pillars” of the “Garbage Clinic”

model were:

1. Door-to-door collection of both organic and

inorganic waste: households were educated on the

need to segregate waste into organic (green bin)

and inorganic (red bin) materials, on sanitation, and

on the importance of beneficiary charges.

2. Waste collection and segregation en-route to and

in Garbage Clinics: garbage collectors were trained

to identify and sort 156 types of waste products.

3. Tertiary segregation for conversion of waste into

recyclables: Where waste could be re-used, it was

cleaned and sorted.

4. Sale of segregated waste: proceeds from the sale

were used for wage payments, operations and

maintenance.

5. Use of technology to improve efficiency: leveraging

appropriate technology, the SLWM system stayed

transparent and accountable.

6. Citizen participation: the resident population was

mobilised through education campaigns to support

the new system.

The remaining organic waste was to be composted and biogas was

collected. For non-organic waste, collectors were trained to undertake

fine grain segregation down even to the level of recyclable grade and

potential for cash returns. For example, discarded plastic bottles were

to be separated into three sub-categories: the lid/neck ring, the body of

the bottle, and the label, in recognition of the difference between Poly

propylene plastic (PP) and High Density Poly Ethylene (HDPE).6

Furthermore, appropriate technology was adopted to enhance efficiency.

Garbage collection routes are tracked by GPS, user charges are collected

through electronic point-of-sales means, which allows real-time receipt

issuing, Solid and Liquid Resource Management (SLRM) centres are

monitored through CCTVs, and staff attendance is tracked through biometric

sensors. Operational statistics are monitored in real time to ensure

transparency and accountability.

Another key to the success of the Ambikapur SLWM model was the ability

of disparate government departments and schemes to work together as an

integrated whole. Some of the key agencies involved are identified in the

figure below.

A key success factor was the organisation and

training of committed and capable collectors. To

begin with, waste collection was projected as a safe

and honourable occupation, dignified by none less

than Mahatma Gandhi himself. This instilled a sense

of dignity to the collectors. Women, gathered into a

federated society of 20 self-help groups (SHGs), were

recruited as collectors. Some 600 were recruited and

trained, even though only 300 were required. The

buffer was in recognition of the considerable domestic

constraints women face in holding employment. The

women were provided medical check-ups and tools so

they could work effectively. Recruits were trained in

the dynamics of team-work, the use and importance

of safety gear, the importance of punctuality, personal

hygiene and conflict management when dealing with

hostile customers.4 Remuneration was based not on

wage labour terms but on a community structure,

which improved worker efficiency.

Another factor was the level of segregation that

the system envisaged in order to ensure maximum

returns from the waste. Non-organic and organic

waste, already sorted at source, was to be further

segregated into 156 types of waste. Organic waste

was to be separated by type, for example, fruit

peels and eggshells. Cows were bought to consume

fresh kitchen waste and in turn produce milk and

cow dung, the latter required for composting.5

When the State of Chhattisgarh rolled out its

“Mission Clean City” plan, it reviewed all possible

large-scale waste management models for adoption

(See Table 2). As most of its ULBs generated between

6 to 50 Tonnes per Day (TPD) of waste, it identified

the Ambikapur model as most suited for state-wide

adoption. Furthermore, the Ambikapur model is highly

suitable owing to the kind of waste generated in Indian

cities, its ease of operation, its scalability, and the fact

that it does not require high technical expertise, is

less capital intensive and is financially sustainable.

The Government thus allocated Rs. 222 crores (S$44

million) for upscaling the Ambikapur model across

the State. By early 2018, the model had been rolled

out to 168 ULBs, 153 of which have populations of

less than 50,000.8 This has resulted in 348 Garbage

Clinics, 226 segregation centres and 104 composting

sheds established and functioning in the State.9 More

than 8,000 women are engaged in collection and

segregation,10 with each earning Rs. 8000–10,000

(S$160–201) a month. Some 1.78 km2 of land has been

reclaimed from dump sites for remediation.

ProgressAmbikapur’s Solid and Liquid Waste

Management system has catalysed

change in the city. Not only has it

reduced the Municipal Corporation’s

expenditure by up to 52%,7 mainly due

to a reduction in logistics costs, but

it has also converted more than Rs.

80 lakhs (S$160,000) into recyclable

waste in the two years since it has

been adopted (2015–17). Among the

beneficiaries of the system, 70%

pay user charges, and 84% provide

garbage. The service now covers 100%

of the ULB. Ambikapur now has cleaner

roads and drains, is free of leachate

contamination, and is Solid Waste

Management Rules (2000) compliant.

It is a certified dustbin-free city. In 2017,

Ambikapur won the Swachhata Sarvekshan

for being the cleanest city in India.

The stakeholders continue to improve

the design of the programme. For

example, the Solid Liquid Waste

Management Centres were rebranded

“Garbage Clinics” as they held greater

appeal in the public perception.
