In my point of view, DDA authority also plan to bring in cycle sharing project, where through last-mile connectivity, people would be able to use the road through dedicated cycle tracks and park them at metro stations. Besides, authority are contemplating on e-buses (electric buses) and study is being currently done by an institute in this regard.
Yesterday i came to know from news that , the East Delhi Hub in Karkardooma in east Delhi, which will be developed in a transit-oriented-development (TOD) mode, will have the tallest tower in Delhi. The urban body had recently approved the TOD project and a 80-storey iconic building is among the proposed infrastructure, though, authority did not specify if the final building will taller than this.
Hi All, I heard in news that, about 2000 flats are being proposed for citizens aged 60 and above. 800 of them are being planned in Dwarka, while rest in Rohini and south Delhi. We have already appointed a management consultant and on January 15 we are calling in the architect for the design. We are also in talks with the banks to see if reverse mortgaging facility could be allowed to them. A separate financial hub in Dwarka on the lines of one in Mumbai has also been planned by DDA in the new year.
As per different sources ,the project is in a very primitive stage as of now and has not reached the drawing board yet . The vice-chairman also said that DDA would soon start working on the senior citizens apartment, for which other modalities are also being worked out.
Hi Sufia, As per my knowledge, the smart city envisioned by DDA will be a complete sub-city, which would be located in an area of 20-24 hectares, zoned out of Dwarka, Rohini and Narela, and will be equipped with latest technologies and waste-management techniques.
The smart city will have a world-class infrastructure, 24-hour power supply, complete wi-fi connectivity, and will employ green technology and latest water conservation like rain-harvesting and waste management techniques, among other facilities. The land for this project is to be acquired through land pooling, on which the DDA is working.
