Executive Summary
Smart City Mission, launched by Government of India, focuses on development of cities that
provide core infrastructure and give a decent quality of life to its citizens, a clean and sustainable
environment and application of ‘Smart’ Solutions. The focus is on sustainable and inclusive
development and the idea is to look at compact areas, create a replicable model which will act
like a light house to other aspiring cities.

Smart Cities Mission of the Government is a bold, new initiative. It is meant to set examples that
can be replicated both within and outside the Smart City, catalysing the creation of similar Smart
Cities in various regions and parts of the country.

The core infrastructure elements in a smart city would include:

i. Adequate water supply,


ii. Assured electricity supply,
iii. Sanitation, including solid waste management,
iv. Efficient urban mobility and public transport,
v. Affordable housing, especially for the poor,
vi. Robust IT connectivity and digitalization,
vii. Good governance, especially e-Governance and citizen participation,
viii. Sustainable environment,
ix. Safety and security of citizens, particularly women, children and the elderly, and
x. Health and education.

Project Management Consultant for Tumakuru Smart City Limited is proposing the “Development
of Smart Roads in Tumakuru Smart City”. In the proposed scenario the Ring road has been taken
up for providing better solution for “Efficient Urban Mobility and Public Transport”

The existing Ring Road also known as inner ring road was one of the projects under taken by
Tumkur Urban Development Authority with the financial assistance of Karnataka Urban
Infrastructure Development Finance & Corporation (KUIDFC) under ADB loan. The Ring (inner Ring
Road). The following are the objectives to develop the Ring road:

 To improve connectivity and travel throughout the city and its region.

 To improve mobility within neighborhoods, wards, zones and suburbs so as to take care of
intra city transportation needs.

 To reduce the traffic load on BH raod for the traffic passing toward Honavar and Kunigal.

4|P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
The Project consisting of both land acquisition of about 45.00 m right of way (Total Land acquired
for Ring Road Development 91 A-32.75 G) and development of 7.00 in carriage way for the traffic
standards few CD works & pipe culverts for about 10.50 kms stretch

Presently the existing road surface is damaged, potholes and ruts are formed throughout the
10.50 km stretch of road due to heavy over loaded vehicular traffic. Presently the Ring road in its
existing condition is not being used properly due to the following reasons:

 Poor Condition of the road and water logging on the road due to lack of proper cross
drainage.

 No proper signages, street furniture, signalling, footpaths, cycle track etc.

 The degradation of the ring road has led to number of accidents due to which the public
and private transport does not prefer to use this ring road.

The road is being maintained by TUDA till date and also collecting a cess at the rate of Rs.75/- per
sqm from the layout from developers for the land which falls within 750m on either side of
existing Ring Road. Till today, A total amount of Rs.4.93 crores (Approx) has been collected from
the past 10 Years. The cess being collected is not sufficient even to meet the loan obligations to
pay at least the interest amount itself. But in the interest of general public, the TUDA is spending
Rs.50.00 to 60.00 lakhs (Approx) per annum towards repair and maintenance of this Ring Road.
Now TUDA is not in a position to invest huge amount of funds for the redevelopment of this
existing ring road with its available own financial resources and there is no Government fund /
assistance / grant are provided to the TUDA for the same. Since the road is frequently damaged
due to stagnation of storm water and heavy vehicular traffic its felt necessary to upgrade the
existing condition of ring road in the interest of general public.

Present Condition of the Road

Efforts made for the redevelopment of through Handing over the Existing Ring
Road to NH / NHAI

 KUIDFC empowered committee in it’s meeting held on 14-06-2005 has accorded its approval
for the transfer of this road to National Highway at free of cost and also approved to treat
the proportionate cost incurred by TUDA as grant.

 Due to the shortage of funds for the development of Ring Road, it was decided to handing
over it to the NH / NHAI.

 National Highway department has agreed to take over this Ring Road. The correspondences
made in this regards since 2005, does not yield any results.

 Recently, NHAI has taken a decision to take up the DPR for the stand alone bypass in the
peripheral area of Tumkur city instead of taking over / development of the existing TUDA
Ring Road.

Advantages to the ABD area due to the rejuvenation/redevelopment of this Ring


Road
 The proposed rejuvenation and up gradation of the ring road shall provide the benefits to the
ABD area such as relief in traffic congestion, decrease in accidents , better air quality,
increase in the durability of the existing road infrastructure in the ABD area by diverting
unwanted through traffic of NH-206 (Bangalore — Honnavar) and SH-48 (Kunigal Road)

 Helps in decentralizing the centralized commercial activity to outside areas (i.e., Ring Road)
thereby reducing the pressure on the ABD area. Presently most of the major educational
institutions and Hospitals (including District Hospitals) are situated all along the NH-206
which passes through ABD area, which passes in the Heart of City area causing traffic
interruption which intern leads to heavy traffic and leads to creating accident prone zones
(including ABD area)

 Due to the existence of huge Vasanthanarasapura industrial area and establishment HAL
Helicopter manufacturing unit near Gubbi increases the traffic towards Tumkur city in future.
The present NH-206, catering the traffic moving towards Arasikere, Tiptur, Shivamoga,

1 Background
1.1 The Smart Cities Mission

Rapid growth in small and medium scale urban centres plays an important role in economic and
societal progress. However, it also strains a city’s infrastructure. Key challenges, such as traffic
congestion, energy usage, public safety, and the building of sustainable communities are top of
mind. Such challenges need to be addressed through the development and implementation of
intelligent solutions. Smart cities are measured by the integration of their infrastructure and the
intelligent ways by which they tackle challenges. A smart city puts emphasis on creating a system
of networks to allow for a systematic flow of information and effective management of resources.
Enabling integration and convergence with organizations and local authorities to provide solutions
for the development of a smart city is crucial.

A Smart City offers decent living options to every resident. This would mean that it will have to
provide a very high quality of life i.e. good quality but affordable housing, cost efficient physical
infrastructure such as 24 x 7 water supply, sanitation, 24 x 7 electric supply, clean air, quality
education, health care, security, entertainment, sports, robust and high speed interconnectivity,
fast & efficient urban mobility etc.

Nearly 31% of India's current population currently resides in cities and contribute 63% of GDP
(Census 2011). Urban areas are expected to house 40% of India's population and contribute 75%
of India's GDP by 2030. This requires comprehensive development of physical, institutional, social
and economic infrastructure. All are important in improving the quality of life and attracting
people and investment, setting in motion a virtuous cycle of growth and development.
Development of Smart Cities is a step in that direction.

The Smart Cities Mission is an innovative and new initiative by the Government of India to drive
economic growth and improve the quality of life of people by enabling local development and
harnessing technology as a means to create smart outcomes for citizens.

The objective of the Smart Cities Mission is to promote cities that provide core infrastructure and
give a decent quality of life to its citizens, a clean and sustainable environment and application of
'Smart' Solutions. The focus is on sustainable and inclusive development and the idea is to look at
compact areas, create a replicable model, which will act like a lighthouse to other aspiring cities.
The Smart Cities Mission aims to set examples that can be replicated both within and outside the
Smart City, catalysing the creation of similar Smart Cities in various regions and parts of the
country.

The Smart Cities Mission is being operated as a Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) and the Central
Government proposes to give financial support to the Mission to the extent of ₹ 48,000 crores
over five years i.e. on an average ₹ 100 Crores per city per year. An equal amount, on a matching
basis, will be contributed by the State/ULB; therefore, nearly INR One Lakh Crore of
Government/ULB funds will be available for Smart Cities development.

Accordingly, the purpose of the Smart Cities Mission is to drive economic growth and improve the
quality of life of people by enabling local area development and harnessing technology, especially
technology that leads to Smart outcomes.

Out of these 4 roads, Field Marshal Cariappa Road is selected as the pilot project. This road is
designed to become ‘Smart’ with all utilities below the ground and with footpath, cycle track,
vending kiosks, vehicle parking, auto stand, LED bollards lights, street furniture and streetscaping.

3.2 Case Study

The design of Urban Roads prioritise the comfort and safety of pedestrians and cyclists, as well as
recognises the needs of city. The design shall also combine street landscape and hardscape
aesthetics with practical considerations of user behavioural change. The road standards mandate
the integration of networked services under the road such as – water, sewage, power, OFC, gas,
and storm water drains, as also the crossing facilities across the street. TENDER S.U.R.E
(Specifications for Urban Roads Execution), 2011, IRC Guidelines and MORTH specifications which
advocates for unhindered movement of vehicles and pedestrians by dividing the existing right of
way to more equitable proportions with uniform travel lanes, designated cycle tracks and
continuous footpaths.

4 Existing Condition
The existing condition of the Ring Road during rainy season is very dilapidated. As due the terrain
of the city the BH road ridge line divided the city into two parts and the culverts on the BH road
(NH 206) also flows toward Ring Road. The existing culverts on the Ring road also not sufficient to
cater the storm water. Thus there is water logging on the road. The same is shown below:

4.1

The existing ROW of the Ring Road is 45 meters.

4.1.1 Existing Pavement Condition

The survey has been carried out using visual means supplemented by actual measurements to
meet the study requirements. The road are predominantly covered with transverse and reflection
cracking, and corner cracks and pot holes.

Pavement on the road is in not in good condition. Major distresses observed are transverse and
reflection cracks. Corner/edge cracks are observed in some places and at most of the places are
the pot holes..

The centre line of the road is neither aligned to the centre or as per the 4 lanes.

4.1.1.1 Pavement Crust thickness and Composition & Sub Grade Soil
Characterstics

Fourteen test pits were excavated at the pavement/shoulder interface on sample basis to
ascertain the existing pavement composition (pavement layers, material type and thickness) and
classification of sub grade material.
At each test pit location, the following information was recorded.

• Test pit reference (location)


• Pavement composition (material type and thickness)
• Sub grade type (textural classification)

From the observed data of pavement layer composition, it is inferred that the crust consists of
bituminous layer over water bound macadam (WBM) layer with varying thicknesses. The detailed
pavement composition of all test pits is attached as annexure along with the test results.
4.1.2 Existing Footpath/ Walkway Condition

Presently there are no footpath provided on the road. There is one Railway under bridge which
narrows the road.

4.1.3 Existing Sewerage Collection Network

As per KUWS&DB As-Built drawing records and physical site inspection, On both side of the road
there is sewer trunk line. .
4.1.4 Existing Water Supply Distribution Network

Tumakuru city has total water demand of 56 MLD for which the ongoing 24*7 water supply
scheme is under process funded by UIDSSMT & AMRUT and implemented by KUWS&DB. At
present, Ring Road is provided with existing water supply line, being maintained by Tumakuru City
Corporation.

4.1.5 Existing Storm Water Collection Network

At present, the storm water collection drains at along the Ring road is not sufficient to cater the
flow. There is no storm water drain present on the Ring Road, only at few stretched the
shopkeepers/households made some drain to drain out the water in front of their houses. The
Over flow of the water flows to Malur lake and Bhimsandra Lake. An other package Smart water
management for interconnection of lakes is also in progress (preparation of feasibility Report).

4.1.6 Existing Electrical & Telecom Lines

XXI | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
At present, the electrical power supply lines are pulled on overhead poles present at Field Ring
Road. Service connections to individual consumers are provided by tapping from overhead lines.
11kV/433V oil filled transformers rated for 100 kVA and 250 kVA are provided at various locations
to derive LT supply.

There are total approximate 1200 poles located at both side of road. There are two HT line
crossings over the Road which also needs to be shifted.

The shifting of the HT/LT lines intimated to the line departments in the stake holder consultation.
The same has not been taken into account in the estimation as per the circular of KUIDFC No.
KUIDFC/27/Smart Cities/2017-17 dated 24/05/2017. (Copy attached). The ongoing work of lying
of OFC Cable on the Ring Road is in progress.

4.2 Stake Holders Meetings/Data Collection

Various meetings were held to finalise of the typical cross-sections and other design parameters.
The followings points were discussed during the public consultation:
• Redevelopment of the road
• Improve in the geometry of the Road
• Improvement in road profile
• Improvement in storm water management by way of construction of cross drainage
• Provision of RCC and lined (Kachha) drain
• Improvement of Flexible pavement
• Retained existing pavement as per the improved alignment
• Shifting of over ground and under ground utilities to the designated provision of the
space.
Discussion with TCC, TUDA, KUWS&DB, BSNL, BESCOM, PNG Gas provider and the official of
other line departments made. After several discussions, the design was approved and adopted in
the road DPR.

4.3 Survey and Investigations

4.3.1 Topographical Survey


Topographical survey was conducted for the purpose of creating a digital terrain model (in order
to design the road and structures) for the stretch of the roads, covering entire right of way (ROW)
(i.e. building line to building line). Topographic survey is done fand storm water survey was also
conducted. Based on the survey the road and storm water network (design of culverts) designed.
The pavement design and storm water design report attached.

Methodology for Topographical Survey


The survey was carried out as follows:

Traverse Survey

XXII | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
Traverse is carried out connecting all the Control Pillars and shall be closed after fixing of Control
Pillars. The traverse closer shall be better than 1:20,000 and shall be distributed. If the error is
more, the entire traverse shall be repeated till accuracy better than 1:20,000 is obtained. All
computation are complied with the following
• Traverse adjustment by Bowditch Method.
• Least square adjustment.
• The software should be capable to reduce survey observations to mapping plane.
• All surveys is oriented to the North direction and with the GPS co-ordinate system.

Levelling
After fixing the Benchmark, control levelling was carried out connecting all the permanent control
points. For the purpose of height control, Survey of India Benchmarks/ DMRC Benchmark is used
for starting and closing of level lines. Double Tertiary levelling has been carried out. The
maximum observing distance was kept at 100 m or less. Fore sight and back sight distances, as
far as possible, kept equal. The spread between observed rounds of vertical angles not exceeding
10 seconds is considered
The closing error on a level circuit shall not exceed 12 K in mm, where K is distance in km. The
closing error is distributed to all the permanent control points in network. In case where the
closing error is more than the above-specified limit, the observations were repeated.

Detailed Survey
The details on the road and on its flanks up to ROW on either side of the centre line of the
existing road or more in were surveyed by running Total Station traverses in between the plan
metric positions of control points established on the road sides in between GPS control points by
an earlier Total Station traverse. X, Y and Z coordinates of relevant points of survey were
captured by this Total Station traverse, such as electric / telephone pole, trees with type, statues,
wells and points on string lines (i.e., points on the same linear feature such as centre line of road,
left / right edge of carriageway, left / right edge embankment top, left / right embankment toe
line, break points on ground, visible property lines, streams, building etc., within the limit of
survey).
4.3.2 Traffic Surveys
Detailed traffic surveys and traffic count for the project roads have been conducted in the year
2017, hereinafter called, “Base Year” and the results of which are being awaited.
For the purpose of pavement design, traffic volume count survey has been conducted for 12
hours each for 4 days
For the purpose of design as per IRC 37-2012, commercial vehicles of gross vehicle weight more
than 3 ton has been considered for the design of the flexible pavement.

As per survey results the four lane is required to be constructed. But due to fund provisions only
the construction of four lane provisioned from Kunigal Junction ot Gubbi gate (from Ch. 7.100 to
10.524) along with the RCC storm water drain service lane and from ch. 0.00 to 7.100 two lane
with future provisioned made in the DPR. The detail of the surey attached.

5 Design Parameters

XXIII | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
5.1 Introduction

For the Design of Horizontal and Vertical Geometry and other road elements, Design standards
referring to the following guidelines of Indian Roads Congress are used.
 IRC: 86-1983 “Geometric Design Standards for Urban Roads in Plains”
 IRC:106-1990 “Guidelines for Capacity of Urban Roads in Plain Areas”

The pavement design is prepared as per IRC-37- 2012


Various Design standards considered in the project are briefly stated below.

5.2 Geometric Standards

The horizontal geometry will be designed in accordance with Clause 10 of IRC: 86-1983 generally.
Following considerations are made in horizontal geometry design
 To maintain the existing road horizontal geometry to the extent possible.
 Road widening, as far as possible considering building lines / compound walls on either
side of existing carriageway.
 Vertical alignment / grade to be governed by immediate access to properties / adjoining
junctions and road ends.
 Rise and fall of existing road in design of the facility.

5.3 Design Speed:

Design speed is the basic criterion adopted for determining all geometric features of horizontal
and vertical alignments. The design speeds for various types of roads are given in the table below.
The design speed in urban stretch is generally governed by the existing road plan, building lines,
possible land acquisition extents, utilities and heterogeneous traffic flow. The most critical
sections governing the design speed is the turning movement of vehicles on curves and available
sight distance to plying traffic. As per IRC, design speed for atrial orad si 80 km/hr., sub arterial
road is 60 Kmph and Collector Street is 50 Kmph. For the project stretch, roads are on straight
reach with horizontal curve. The road is designed at the speed of 80 Km/hr.

1 Road Design Speed as per IRC 86 Adopted Design Speed (Km/hr)


Classification (Km/hr)
1 Arterial 80 80
2 Sub-Arterial 60 60
3 Collector Street* 50 50
4 Local Street 30 30
*The road is designed for speed of 80Kmph, considering this road as collector streets

XXIV | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
5.4 Horizontal Alignment

Horizontal alignment is designed in accordance with IRC: 38-1988 “Guidelines of Design of


Horizontal Curves for Highways and Design Tables”. Clause 10.3 of IRC: 86-1983 specifies
minimum curve radius of horizontal curve for 80 Kmph with super-elevation/ camber as reqired.
These guidelines will be followed for reasonably flat and less winding alignments. Depending on
existing road geometry and site constraints, modifications are made to provide sharper curve
radius wherever required based on site specific considerations.

5.5 Super Elevation on Curves

Super-elevation on horizontal curves will be attained as per IRC: 38-1988. The super elevation will
be limited to 4 % as per Clause 10.2 of IRC: 86-1983 as the project area is in urban section.

5.6 Cross-Sectional Elements

The cross sectional elements considered in designing the proposed road are given below:
 Km 0.00 to Km 7.100 - 2 Lane (carriageway 7 m) with extension of cross drainage
to 45 m RoW.
 From Km 7.100 to 10.525 four (4) Lane (carriage way 7 m either side) proposed
Strengthening of the Road
 Drainage along the road
o From KM 0.550 to Km 7.100 (lined drain- Kachha)
o From Km 7.100 to Km 10.524 RCC drain with removable cover for easy
maintenance.

5.7 Camber

As per the IRC 86-1983 the camber for rigid pavement is in the range of 1.7% to 2%. Considering
the existing site conditions, proposed width of carriageway (i.e. 2.75 m one side width) and the
technical committee recommendation the camber of 1.5% will the best suited for the project.

5.8 Vertical Alignment

The vertical geometry designed as per guidelines given in IRC SP 23-1993. Vertical curves are
provided at locations of change in gradient. The length of vertical curves is dependent on change
in grade between two vertical straight and this will be as per IRC SP: 23-1993 “Vertical Curves for
Highways”.
5.9 Road Signage and Markings

Proper signage and markings are vital for safety and guidance of the drivers. Drawings shall show
warning and regulatory signs at appropriate locations. The signs are of reflector type to be noted
easily at night. All road signs are in conformity with the provisions of IRC 67 – 2012- Code of
Practice for Road Signs. The road markings are in conformity with IRC 35 – 2015 Code of Practice
for Road Markings with Paint and other IRC Standards.
5.10 Junctions

The is one major junction (Kunigal Junction) on the road, which is being developed under Karnatka
State Highway Improvement Programme (KSHIP) . Thus no further junction improvement
proposed under Ring Road. Plan & Profile drawing
The drawings profile drawings are in Annexure III

5.11 Cycle Track

Cycle tracks has not been provided on the road.

5.12 Footpath

Pedestrian footpath are defined as any area primarily used by ‘all ‘pedestrian. They can be
adjacent to roadways, or away from the road. Footpaths should be regarded as a transportation
system which is connected and continuous, just like the roadways and railways. They should not
be sporadically placed where ever convenient, but instead should be provided consistently
between all major attractions, trip generators, and other locations where people walk. In order to
be effective, the sidewalks should be provided on the both sides of the road and above the level
of the carriageway separated by kerbs. Height of the kerb at the edge should however, not
exceeds the height of a standard public step riser i.e. 150mm.

Clearing Walking Zone for Footpath: -

In the natural and tempered landscapes, paths should be at least 1800 mm wide in order to
accommodate wheelchair users and person with vision impairments assisted by sighted person or
guide dog.

XXVI | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
The minimum 1.8m (width) X 2.2 (Height) walking
zone should be clear of all obstructions – both
horizontally and vertically. No utility ducts, utility
poles, electric water or telecom boxes, trees,
signage or any kind of obstruction should be
placed within the “Walking Zone “as explained in
the figure given. `

Clear Height: -

A clear height of 2.2 m is required for the entire


width of the footpath walking zone. No tree
branches, trees, utility poles,
electric/water/telecom boxes or signage should be
placed within the clear height and width of the
walking zone.

Width: -

The width of a footpath is fundamental to the effective functioning of the pedestrian system.
Without an optimum width, footpath will not help move enough pedestrian and will discourage
them from walking. The width of sidewalks depends upon the expected pedestrian flows and
could be fixed with the help of guidelines given in table:-
Width of Sidewalk Design Flow in Numbers of Persons per Hour
(m) In Both Directions All in one direction
LOS B LOS C LOS B LOS C
1.8 1350 1890 2025 2835
2 1800 2520 2700 3780
2.5 2250 3150 3375 4725
3 2700 3780 4050 5670
3.5 3150 4410 4725 6615
4 3600 5040 5400 7560

The minimum width of a clear unobstructed pathway should be 1800 mm in roads of right of way
of 10m and above. This allows two wheelchairs to pass each other comfortably.

XXVII | P a g e

Project Management Consultant for Implementation of Smart City Mission Project of Tumakuru City
In case of road with right of way less than 10m or in the areas with light pedestrian traffic, a width
of 1500 mm is referred as the minimum acceptable, giving enough space for a wheelchair user
and a walker to pass each other. As an exception, the width of the footpath may be considered as
1500mm. The full width of footpath should be maintained consistently, even behind bus shelters
and in front of shop. For the actual length or width of the people and equipment, the clearance
lengths and clear outdoor passage widths needed for those people and equipment.
The width of the footpaths depends upon the expected pedestrian traffic of the following
guidelines subject to not being less than 1.8m as explained in given in table:-

Minimum obstacle free walkway width and Residential/ Mixed Use Area 1.8m

Commercial /Mixed Used Area 2.50m


Shopping Frontages 3.5 to 4.5 m
Bus Stops 3m
High Density Commercial Areas 4m

5.13 Sewerage Collection Network

As there is main sewerage trunk line is present at the road hence PMC-TSCL is not doing any
detailed engineering on Sewerage Collection Network Scheme.
5.14 Water Supply Distribution Network

Detailed Project Report of Continuous Pressurised Water Supply Scheme (CPWSS) for Entire
Tumakuru city is under UIDSSMT & AMRUT scheme was approved and being implemented by
KUWS&DB. This project has already in execution phase by L&T Water & Effluent Treatment IC.

Hence, PMC- TSCL will not be doing any detailed Engineering on Water Supply Distribution
Network. The details already available with KUWS&DB will be collected and incorporated for
smart road development.
