Presenter : Sudeept Maiti

• Presentation of the HSR Neighbourhood Improvement Plan

• Panel discussion

• Questions from audience

The agenda

Provisions for safe

pedestrian crossings are

often overlooked while

designing for

automobiles

The HSR NIP project

Ward area:

6.98 sq.km

Population:

60749

WHY:

• Neighborhoods such as these have

high concentration of car-

ownership, wide roads which tends

dominate the landscape.

• Lack of pedestrian and cycling

infrastructure results in less people

on the streets and therefore increase

in issues of safety and security

The changes HSR is

undergoing

The Panel discussion

The panel discussion

What are the critical components to be considered, while

planning for an NIP?

Question 1 :

The panel discussion

How do you make the NIP process a participative one?

Who are the people you need to involve and how do you

take it forward in terms of financing?

Question 2 :

The panel discussion

What are the critical challenges faced by neighborhood

planning today and how do you think neighbourhood

Improvement plans might be the way forward?

Question 3 :

The panel discussion

How do NIPs start becoming an effective planning tool?

What is the current scenario today in neighbourhood

administration and how will NIPs help change it?

Question 4 :

The panel discussion

There is a lot of conversation of making Indian cities ‘smart

NIPs in this context / what do you think the next steps for

NIPs are?
