Transit Oriented Development Vision for Delhi
Social Goal 1:
SAFER DELHI
1) Create safe usable public spaces through design. 2) Bring eyes on street through Hawkers.
Q.
Can a Woman Walk Alone Safely on the Streets of Delhi After 7:00 PM?
Delhi is India's crime capital.. TOI, June 2008

The most unsafe time out - 40% felt unsafe between 8 and 10 am and 5 and 7 pm. 31% felt unsafe in mid-afternoon. Most unsafe places - 45% identified buses as the most unsafe; 25% the roadside; 6.7% found bus stops... A Delhi Police survey on womens safety, 05 March 2006. Source: http://southasia.oneworld.net/article/view/127142/1/
Problem
1. Resettlement of weaker sections outside the city to unserved places like Savda Ghevra, Bhalsawa etc. 2. Lack of basic facilities and sense of self-pride in life at inner city slums. 3. Removal of hawkers and vendors (who are eyes on streets).
Solution
1. Inclusinve planning - Integrate all income groups into community planning and design. 2. Provide shared scoail amenties and physical infrastructure within inclusive communities.
3. Provide designated space for hawkers and vendors (who are eyes on streets).

Q.
Would you feel safer walking on streets with huge setbacks and no people?
1) For Safety: Create Eyes on the Street .
Eyes on the street
2) Hawkers are good for Safety!

Benefits of Hawkers: They keep streets clean, busy, vibrant and safe. They provide a variety of cheaper food and retail options for the public. They express our culture. They generate selfemployment.

Social Goal 2:
CLEAN, GREEN & USABLE

Open spaces play multiple functions: 1) Safe usable public spaces for young, old, rich & poor. 2) Working landscapes that capture, purify and treat storm water runoff.
Many of Delhis parks are unwatched, underused, inaccessible and unsafe for women & the disabled.
Example below: This beautiful green space/ park at ITO is inaccessible to the thousands of people working daily in this area due to lack of pedestrian crossings to reach the park, lack of safety, accessibility and eyes on the park.

Make Parks NOT JUST beautiful, but Usable too.

Make Parks intimate and watched by surrounding buildings
Only 15% of any Typical Neighbourhood is green/ soft surface which allows Water Infiltration.

So building Parking under parks would cause more local flooding and more water logging on roads..

Utilize Parks as Working Landscapes:

Parks can be multi-use green spaces throughout the year; In monsoons, they transform into storm water swales or detention ponds

Utilize Parks as Working Landscapes:
Utilize Road Greens as Working Landscapes:
Utilize Parks and Open Spaces for Natural Storm Water Management. A Holistic a 3-Tier Approach:
1: Treat at Source
(streets, parks)
2: Natural Conveyance
(minimal piping)
3: Natural Storm Water Treatment
Advantages: - Reduced Flooding - Less pressure and reduced sizing for Municipal Storm Water Treatment Plants. - PREVENT POLLUTING THE YAMUNA!!
Built Working Examples:

Social Goal 3:
GETTING AROUND EASILY

1) 2) 3) Make transferring between modes easy Design streets for ALL, not JUST cars. Provide high density mixed use developments (residential. office, entertainment & civic uses) with 5-min walk of Metro Stations.

Delhi has failed to integrate the rich and poor symbiotically and legally within the city. Lack of Community Ownership between rich and poor. Failure to make the citys historic precincts a part of the lives of its people.

Integrated Society
Remove slums, NOT slum dwellers! Get Development (other than flyovers) back to Delhi. Integrate rich and poor symbiotically, with shared amenities, near Transit. Integrate major employment centres along Transit Nodes (not highway arterials) as part of mixed-use communities. We need to Prepare for 55% Urbanization by 2050.
STOP Banishing the Poor; Integrate them into mixed-income communities

Give Equal access to Transit + Amenities to Rich & Poor
Principles:
1. Amenities and Housing for Low-income people MUST be accommodated: NEAR Transit Facilities and Amenities. NEAR mid to high income groups. Low-income groups can: work in local offices, provide household help for richer homes also commute to other jobs easily. work in community gardens producing local food, etc.
Low income housing (Size < 250 families) High/ Middle income housing Commercial Offices/ Light Industrial Schools/ Libraries/ Civic uses Public Parks
500 M walking radius
2.
Rapid Transit Station (Metro/ BRT)
STOP Banishing the Poor; Integrate them into mixed-income communities Give Equal access to Transit + Amenities to Rich & Poor
New development
Option 1: - Mandatory Reservation for % of low-income housing in private developments near public transit. According to the Delhi Masterplan, all private developments are to provide and maintain 15% of the total FSI for low-income groups. Other states are likely to adopt this mandate under the JNURM guidelines. This would be a mandatory requirement for projects to obtain planning approvals.
500 M walking radius
Option 2: - FSI-density bonuses for market-rate developments to pay for, or construct nearby lowincome communities. - Density bonuses for providing and maintaining shared public parks, facilities and social infrastructure.
Low income housing (Size < 250 families) High/ Middle income housing Commercial Offices/ Light Industrial Schools/ Libraries/ Civic uses Public Parks
Option 3: - Government built low income housing within 800 M walking distance from a rapid transit stations, limiting the size of each community to a maximum of 250 families.
Rapid Transit Station (Metro/ BRT)
Inclusive mixed-income Communities with Shared Amenities creates intra-social tolerance, instills Civic Pride and reduces Crime in the long run.

Working with the market

Property prices in Delhi are too high today and the only way they can come down are by increasing supply, - Chairman and Managing Director (South Asia) at property advisory firm CB Richard Ellis. Delhi has failed to give housing to the common man due to limitations on FAR and density norms. It also aided in the creation of slums. If FAR is freed, land cost for development will come down, bringing down property prices, President of the National Real Estate Development Council.

SO WHAT IS
TOD?
High Density Mixed Use within 10-min walk of stations
Transit Node
Express BRTS/MRTS Route
Maximum people Live, Work & Play within 10-min walk of RAPID TRANSIT Stations
DEFINITION Transit Oriented Development (TOD) is essentially any development, macro or micro, that is focused around a transit node, and facilitates complete ease of access to the transit facility, thereby inducing people to prefer to walk and use public transportation over personal modes of transport.

Placemaking anditsBenefits
Some of the biggest gains of TOD are the most intangible: The concept of Placemaking, or designing urban neighbourhoods in such a way that local communities can be formed. Mixeduse, mixedincome developments, where residential, commercial, civic or institutional establishments are located close to each other allow local communities to be formed, with sufficient shared spaces for leisure and recreation. Aparna Parimal Raje onDDAsTODPolicy,LiveMint
A shaded plaza in an office dominated complex. Greenway passages along daily routes of people
Critical Norms introduced for PlaceMaking:

Remove Setbacks, Require Entries on sidewalks Regulate Maximum Block Widths, Minimum Frontages Design Street Guidelines for pedestrians, not just cars!
Sidewalks, Bio-swales
Building Entries/ windows on Sidewalk (eyes on the street provides safety for pedestrians)
Smaller blocks, interconnected streets create shorter travel routes for pedestrians.
Streets for Trains, Buses, cars and Pedestrians. Built-to-edge Buildings for Safety & Comfort.

Buildings (and preferably also streets) should be oriented such that all habitable areas of Residential buildings are oriented to face North-South (within 15) direction.

Buildings (and preferably also streets) should be oriented such that all habitable areas of Residential buildings are oriented to face North-South (within 15) direction.

At Building level, the following Solar Access Regulations need to be followed: All dwelling units should get minimum 2-hour solar access in at least one habitable area (living room, bedroom or private open space) on the shortest winter day of Dec 21 (Winter Solstice).
Microclimate of public streets: Narrow streets provide shading and air movement and therefore greater comfort for pedestrians. Spacing between buildings should be enough to allow daylight access to all homes.

At Building level, the following Solar Access Regulations need to be followed:
All residential buildings shall be single-loaded i.e. each unit should face the exterior, in two opposite directions. No double-loaded corridor buildings are permissible in TODs. Openings shall be located suitably to allow for natural ventilation and daylighting of habitable rooms and access to open air for all rooms including toilets and kitchens.
Double loaded housing
