SPATIAL PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT IN A HIGH-RISK, FLOOD-PRONE ZONE IN SURAT, GUJARAT
The proposal defines planning and design principles to strengthen resilience capacity while mitigating climate change events to adequately respond to societal and urban imperatives. By articulating inter-related strategies of urban development and land economics, it not only reworks the land distribution by equating non-built components and the built fabric, but also derives malleable urban relations that negotiate natural risks, social, urban and governance parameters for highly vulnerable urban areas.
Mapping the environmental and social ecology of the site with respect to the region.
Environmental risks as a critical determinant of land values.
Developing an ecological matrix to ascertain the sustainability index of the proposal
Seasonal and adaptive water edges to control and mitigate flooding risks
Development of green infrastructure as a framework for master planning in response to flooding patterns
Land Use iteration to integrate existing ownership patterns
Urban design development controls derived from climatic and social imperatives.
Master plan integrating ecological, social and urban infrastructure demonstrates sustainable occupation of lands
The basic premise of the investigation and proposal is centered on resilience to climate change and risk mitigation mechanisms through the performance of productive landscape and green infrastructure as an integral component of urban planning.
The initial open competition was hosted under the ACCCRN and subsequently steered by the Surat Municipal Corporation.
