Precincts

5.1.2

The city is designed for a population of 5.6 lakh. The city has two prominent gateways that mark entry to the Naya Raipur City one to the north and the other to the west. Naya Raipur has the following precincts: i. Government Complex to include Secretariat, Assembly, Government offices, and Police Headquarters area. ii. Cultural Heart to include Museum, Art Gallery, Library, Theatres, Convention centre and International Centre. iii. City Centre to include city level shopping malls, commercial offices, restaurants, multiplexes and other areas of recreation. iv. University including research and institutional complexes. v. Software Technology, Exhibition and Business centers vi. Central City Park around an existing vast water body as one of the biggest city parks in the country. Park and Sports Centre in the North end to include urban forest, theme park and sports complex. City Park South to include Theme Park, Jungle Safari, Golf Course and Film City. vii. Transport and integrated freight complex to service the city and its industrial area. viii. Living areas with medium density development for the creation of a peaceful environment envisaged for the city.

Fig. 5.1: Conceptual location of the Precincts

These precincts will be interlinked by: i. An efficient and smooth Mass Rapid Transit System running linearly along the North-South axis of the city. ii. City level pedestrian corridor, and iii. A continuous green and open-space spine running centrally along the city spine and containing sub-city level facilities. 5.1.3 The Form

The physical form of the Naya Raipur has been developed in conformity with the overall vision of a Smart and eco-friendly city. The physical form of the transport network system is a blend of three forms: Linear Cruciform and Transport Hub Grid
Software Technology Park Capital Complex

CBD cum Central Park

Recreational Green

1. Linear

2. Cruciform

3. Grid

19

Naya Raipur Development Plan -2031

The linear form is enabled by the proposed rail based, medium capacity system supported by the main north-south activity green corridor. The two axial road corridors provide the cruciform. The longer axial corridor runs along the activity green corridor. The minor axial corridor runs orthogonal to the longer axial at about its mid length. At the termini of the above corridors are located the major activities like the Capitol Complex, the Software Technology Park, the University and Education & Research Complex, the Transport and Logistics Hub and the Integrated Freight Complex. Along the two axial corridors, at their mid sectors are the Central Business District, the government offices, the City Centre Park and other Social & Cultural Institutions. A grid of residential sectors is superimposed on these two forms, providing the necessary flexibility and integrating people with activities. The minor axial corridor provides the grand vista. A grid of 800 m x 800 m forms the typical minor residential sector housing a population of 16,000. Four such grids together form the major grid. The concept establishes a hierarchical system of urban development in terms of physical and social infrastructure, transportation network, institutional, commercial, and recreational and other activities. The central zone of proposed development becomes the heart of the city and is framed by green belts that serve as an interface between the city centre and the planning units and neighbourhoods 5.1.4 The Peripheral Region

A peripheral region includes 28 surrounding villages referred to as the Naya Raipur Peripheral Region (NRPR) to act as a buffer between the proposed Naya Raipur City and Raipur with an idea to control and regulate development in the region. A balanced Settlement Development Strategy for this area is evolved by providing access to infrastructure through a well-defined Settlement Pattern.

Population of Naya Raipur

Naya Raipur city is planned for a population of about 5.6 lakh in 2031. This new city would attract population from Raipur, the adjoining region and to some extent other parts of India. An exercise in this respect has been conducted with respect to the broad region, which is 50 km radius around Raipur.

6.1.4

Population Projection of Urban Areas in the Region

The urban population has been divided into three sections: Raipur Urban Agglomeration, Durg Bhilai Urban Agglomeration and other urban areas in region. As per 2001 census the population in these categories are as follows:
Table 6.4 Urban Population Composition of the Region Urban Areas 2001 Raipur UA 699,264 Durg Bhilai UA 923,559 Other Urban Areas TOTAL

164,425 1,787,248

It is proposed to maintain the present balance in the urban components of the region through keeping the same proportion by a balanced regional development. Thus, the projected population of the three components is worked out as follows. Total urban population of region in 2031 will be 55.16 lakhs. Table 6.5 Population Projection of Urban Areas

Population Component of Naya Raipur

Naya Raipur would be taking functions from the Raipur city and also would have impact in the region. Being a special intensive activity in the new town it may also attract population from other parts of Chhattisgarh and also from other states of India. The population of Naya Raipur would affect the population projection in Raipur and Durg Bhilai Urban Agglomeration. The population of Naya Raipur is planned as 150,000 in 2011 to 560,000 in 2031 (Refer Table 6.6).

The population estimates for Naya Raipur are related to and dependent on the development of various economic activities and other socio-economic and physical conditions. These may be reviewed after the decadal census. 6.1.6 Age-Sex Composition

A study of the Age Sex Structure of new city of Chandigarh and the present day State capital of Raipur reveals that the age category 15-59 i.e., the working age group is higher as mostly the population is attracted for jobs to the new city. The age-sex pyramid of Raipur gives an idea of the age-sex structure of Raipur in 1991.
Table 6.7 Age Structure of Chandigarh and Raipur, 1991 Chandigarh Age 0 ~ 14 31.87 15 ~ 59 63.79 60+ 4.34 Raipur 35.54% 58.86% 5.60%

6.1.7 Sex Ratio The migration to new cities is usually male biased as single men move in to take up jobs (refer table 6.8).

Table 6.9: Sex ratio for Chhattisgarh and Raipur Year Chhattisgarh 1971 998 1981 996 1991 985 2001 989

Raipur 958 927

Since, Naya Raipur has a similar function as that of Chandigarh, Naya Raipur may have a low sex ratio as compared to that of Chhattisgarh or the present day State Capital of Raipur. To deal with such a situation and to work for better balance of sex ratio, it is important that housing and other social infrastructure such as schools and health facilities be provided ahead of or simultaneous with job creation.
