Smart City Coimbatore

Start Date :
Oct 07, 2015
Last Date :
Nov 26, 2015
00:00 AM IST (GMT +5.30 Hrs)
Coimbatore City Municipal Corporation has been selected through a competitive process for SMART City Mission initiative of Government of India. In the next phase, Coimbatore city ...
Bus:
Integerated bus stand @ Vellalore
24/7 bus service from Vellalore to all the bus stand, Railwa station and important residential areas.
New routes where changing bus is required Eg: Sidco-Sundarapuram-Kuniyamuthur-Madukkarai
Volvos in important routes
Tourist buses to nearby hill stations
DAily sigt seeing tour( May be TTDC can introduce this service) covering importatnt landmarks like Perur, Marudamalai, GASS museum, Botanical garden, Poondi temple, Kovai Kutralam and vaidhegi falls.
Railway:
Gauge conversion and electrification of Podanur-Dindugal
Suburaban transporation to satelite towns of Tirupur, MTP, Palghat & Pollachi.
Mass transportation system for CBE conncting all the major bus stands, Railway station and Airport.
SEZ should be introduced somewhere near the L&T Bypass, where the government has planned form an integerated bus stand. Podanur railway station will help people works there. The area surronding the new SEZ should be pre planned thus reducing the congestion after the developement.
Lightings & Street Furnishings
It is sad to write this basic necessity as a suggestion under Smart City. Nevertheless, Coimbatore roads need proper road lightings (both functional & aesthetic). Mettupalayam road, Eachanari ROB etc doesn't have proper lightings for years now. Roads also require Signage & Direction boards (directions towards important places in the city) unlike the few ones present directing towards Kochi & Ooty. Electronic display for signage would be pleasing as well.
More Land for IT sez should be allocated by Government in prime location with easy access to road with very good transport facility. If the IT parks build in Avinashi Road ,Pollachi road and Mettupalayam road it will be good, since we have good transport on these roads for 24 hours.
Energy management (1):
1. The corporation should introduce smart metering and automatic billing system for electricity.
2. The LED streetlights should cover all over the city replacing conventional lighting. The city is witnessing shifting of overhead electric lines to underground and this will increase the visibility in urban aesthetics.
3. Solar power to be used in signals and other amenities. Project should be coordinated with solar city project.
Universal accessibility:
• Make Coimbatore an ‘Access friendly city’ for all sections of people
• Make ‘universal design’ mandatory in all public buildings being constructed
• Set benchmarking standards for utilities like malls, hotels, restaurants, cinemas and grade them based on the facilities they provide to differently abled people.

Coimbatore Tirupur Express link:
The central government has announced ‘the Rashtriya Rajmarg Zila Sanjoyokta Pariyojna’ to connect 100 district headquarters. This scheme can be utilized to make direct road connectivity parallel to the rail track between Coimbatore and Tirupur and can be developed as a green way.
Unified smart cards:
There should be provision for multimodal transport with unified ticket or smart cards for bus, rail and ITS. There should be a dedicated cell or unified authority for coordinating the same.
