Need for project

For the Revival of the Commercial area since it has the maximum flow of pedestrians thus gaining its charm and lost life as they
have become dead.
For Cars/For People - vehicular access are overcoming in urban communities, in result the participation of passerby in urban spaces
is ending up plainly less and less. Cities are for people but trends of development in transportation infrastructure within the city
have prioritized vehicles over a pedestrian. Even due to road tax policies vehicles edge out pedestrian from road space designing.
Since the ongoing Smart City Mission also includes for the creation of Walkable Communities.

Site analysis
SURVEY
The Morar market is in a residential area. This is 35 -40year old market. The land belongs to a Society, and they have given the
land to the market
From our primary survey, we find that the majority of vendors in this market sell vegetables and food products. The market consists
of 43% vegetable and 14% of fruits sellers. Other major vendor groups in this market are cloth vendors and vendors selling cosmetics
and other small ladies products, each of these groups consisting of around 14% of the total vendors. Around 15% of vendors sell
miscellaneous items. vacant government property available approx 4000 sqm
Identified Issues /problems
Weekly markets
The weekly markets are only on Sundays but blocks the entire road and creates problems for the area.
Vendors The vendors stand anywhere they want, it creates congestion on the roads and hence traffic.
Informal activities
Many people have made a temporary shop for them on the roadside, which is illegal and reduces the road width.
Both the pedestrian and vehicular roads are in very bad condition.
Structure
Built & designed by contractors without proper structural analysis or approval of the authorities & cost-cutting techniques, these
buildings can be termed structurally unsafe.

Public toilet facility

There is one public toilet which was constructed by the government
Garbage
There is no proper area which is defined for dumping the garbage.
People often dump garbage in front of their shops on the streets.
Every morning an GMC truck comes and to collect all the garbage on the streets.
The dumping of garbage on the streets creates a very unhygienic condition for the people living.

Conversion Reconstruction

Conversion:
The ground floors were converted from a Residential use to commercial use for a mode Of income.
Reconstruction:
Furthermore, floors were added to the Structures for rental purposes, as it served As a source of income.
For max. Population, property rent is the reason for the physical transformations of their dwelling and thus, their main source of
income.
The physical transformation is responsible for the decrease of the distance between the building less because of the projecting
balconies

The conversion of the ground floors to commercial use is also for income purposes supported by residential use on the upper floors.

CONCLUSION
The Morar Garam Sadak is found congested during evening peak hours, Sunday hatt, festival seasons when lots of users visit the
area to purchase for different items. The Morar Garm Sadak is the main road and carries high volumes of traffic. At present, the
rate of hawking activity is growing at a high pace leading to encroachment of the footpath by uncontrolled activity because of the
absence of rules and regulations. For the same, an attempt has been made to critically examine the existing problems at Morar
Garam Sadak i.e. Primary surveys conducted brought out the views of the public who use the area, including, the hawkers,
shopkeepers, and the visiting people. From the study, it was found out however that designated and designed place for hawkers
would make it convenient for the hawkers, shopkeepers, and the pedestrians. So zoning as per the main administration of the market
and hawking activities, traffic congestion parking area walker, public space is recommended. An awareness program for the hawkers
is necessary. With the formation of a welfare association of shopkeepers and Hawkers.
