URBAN CENTER CLASSIFICATION

• The Densities of medium town & large cities are considered similar for
sustainability.
• The density of 125 pph is max. factor for small town & average for
medium town & large cities & minimum for Metro cities for their
identification & survival.
PROPOSED LAND USE STRUCTURE OF URBAN CENTERS

• Land use structure of urban center depends upon its function and size. Due to
higher density in metros the land use for residential purpose is less compared to
smaller areas with less density.

• Land use distribution for industrial, commercial and recreational purpose increases
as we move from small town to metro cities.

CHANGES IN LANDUSE FROM PREVIOUS

Some of the SEZ designated zone land has been converted to 7 new
residential/commercial sectors. Some of the mysterious changes in
2031 plan are – increase in the size of sector 37-D, allotting the whole
land piece in between GadoliKhurd& old sector-37 D to builder
Ramprastha. However,the change of land use from SEZ to
residential/commercial sectors will allow more residential space in the
new sectors creating a high density residential cluster in Gurgaon,
which will make it the residential core of Gurgaon.
 LOCAL AREA PLAN
• Local area plans are to be prepared to achieve development or re-development of
land; conservation of buildings, physical features; providing improvements in the
physical layout, making infrastructure and amenities available and managing the
area to enhance health and safety of the occupants to support economic
development as well as to enhance the quality of living, environment, and
preparation of area specific regulatory parameters for the area covered.
• Local area plans are prepared to specify the implementation details to comply with
the Government Policies (such as State urban housing, hi-tech township, rainwater
harvesting, energy, disaster management, industrial and service sector investment,
barrier-free environment for physically disabled, information technology, tourism &
other policies).
• The plan shall identify allotment or reservation of land for roads and public
purposes of all kinds, for sale by the ULB, for construction, for reclamation etc. The
plan shall instrumentalise recovery of the associated costs by mechanisms like levy
of betterment charges, charges on additional development rights, implementation
of the Local Area Plan providing benefits to the persons concerned.

DESIGN CONSIDERATION OF URBAN ROADS:

The Urban expressway design standards have not been developed in India, However for urban context, it is assumed as
Main Arterial road, and hence the lane of width is assumed to be the same as arterial road.
