Chapter 1
INTRODUCTION
Multiplexes are the growing trend of the Indian tradition and development.
Shop.eat.fun
This is the theme of most of the multiplexes. they not only want the people get fun but they want
some thing more .commercial complexes are also located in most of the multiples in order attract
the people to cover three jobs done at a time.
Cinemas are considered to be an integral part of cities and they contribute to the
definition of a local geography and identity. They also contribute to the preservation of the collective
memory, since they constitute a significant social and cultural practice linked to a specific place,
The impact of multiplexes and megaplexes on the urban traffic, as well as urban
planning policies in certain countries, is considerable. Most of the multiplexes are located near
the center or in the suburbs of major cities, and since they constitute a part of the urban traffic
they must contribute to the quality of urban life and respond to urban planning needs. In relation
to city centers, there is always the danger of urban decay and therefore they must be regenerated.
This implies containing the growth of commercial developments on the suburbs, including new
cinemas
The main question that arises relates to the ways that a multiplex affects the
development of a city, the Quality of life of its residents (and tourists), and, perhaps, the planning
legislation in some countries.
Impact Of Multiplexes On Urban Traffic
There is a mismatch in the parking capacity and number of customers entering into the
multiplexes which is creating the great problem for the traffic
Out of 6 multiplexes in the Hyderabad there are less than 3 having the sufficient parking
and free traffic flow
Studying the present scenario of the multiplexes. So the main aim of the study is to
propose the betterment of the condition
1.1.1.2 1.2Aim
To study and analyze the impact of multiplexes on traffic and to propose the betterment of
the condition
Objective 1
To identify multiplexes in Hyderabad which are creating the traffic problems
Objective 2
To study the traffic volume of in and around multiplexes
Objective 3
To identify the multiplexes which does not following the rules and regulations of the
local bodies
Objective 4
To identify the reasons involving in the traffic problems
Objective 5
To suggest planning strategies for reducing the traffic problems
1.4 Scope
Impact Of Multiplexes On Urban Traffic
Scope of the study is to review the problems created by the multiplexes and to new proposal to
them. The scope of the study is limited to the traffic problems and did not deal with the land use
and increase of land prices due to multiplexes.
Limitations:-
my study is limited to the impact of multiplexes on the urban traffic and there immediate
effect on traffic congestions
identified and preferred study area:- IMAX and PVR
study is limited to the in and around the multiplexes

2 Literature Review
2. Definitions:-
A multiplex is a movie theater complex with multiple screens, typically three or more. They are
usually housed in a specially designed building. Sometimes, an existing venue undergoes a
renovation where the existing auditoriums are split into smaller ones, or more auditoriums are
added in an extension or expansion of the building.
Some are largest of these complexes can sit thousands of people and are sometimes referred to as
a megaplex.
Height of building means height measured from the abutting road and in case of undulated
terrain height can be considered as average of the corresponding ground level or formation level
of proposed site.
Parking Complex / Parking Lot means a premises either built or open which is utilized
purely for parking of vehicles and where parking fees is collected by the owner and permitted in
specific areas. The minimum site shall be 300 square meters.
Transferable Development Right (TDR) means an award specifying the built up area an
owner of a site or plot can sell or dispose or utilize elsewhere, whose site or plot is required to be

set apart or affected for a community amenity or development for public purpose in the Master
Plan or in road widening or covered in recreational use zone, etc. and applicable only after such
lands are vested with the local body/ Urban Development Authority as the case may be. The
award would be in the form of a TDR Certificate issued by the Competent Authority
Urban areas involve specialized land uses having specific functions; each land use zone involves
a set of relationships with other land uses. These relationships are expressed by flows of
passengers and freight. This represents a polycentric city,
Zones A and E are both commercial with their associated movements of passengers (workers
and customers) and freight (suppliers).
Zones B and F are distribution centers servicing commercial activities, which implies
movements of freight.
Zones C, G and D are residential areas (G being of high density) from where flows of
passengers are originating.
Lack of commercial area in the busiest roads also leading to the conversion of
cinema theaters into multiplexes
With the
So what if multiplexes constitute just 1% of the total number of cinema halls, and 4-5% of the
12,900 screens, in India, the industry is talking about the end of single screens. Single screens,
with their low quality ambience, would find it tough to survive in the long run, it is felt.
"Over a period of time, theatres will die a natural death," says Sampat. This because there is a
rising demand for quality cinema exhibition infrastructure. Also, before long, digitisation will be
the industry standard and exhibitors will have to shift to it.
"Though the propensity to watch movies in India is high, there is a big gap in terms of quality-
viewing experience between the metros and the smaller cities," says Tushar Dhingra, chief
operating officer, Adlabs.
In India, there are only 12 screens per million population compared to 117 screens per million in
the US and more than 40 screens per million for European countries.
Now, what are the risks involved? Increasing property prices is a big concern, of course. But
most multiplex owners have tied up properties for at least the next couple of years.
So, at least on the surface, there's nothing much to stop the multiplex boom. The coming of age
of direct-to-home services like movie-on-demand and live gaming are unlikely to make the
millions.
Impact Of Multiplexes On Urban Traffic
Increase in the
traffic flow
Increase in the
commercial spaces
Multiples show the direct effect on the surrounding areas in the view of increase in land rates,
change in the land use pattern and increase in the traffic flow.
With he addition of the multiplex in a area shows effects on the land use by changing the whole
landuse to commercial in order increase the marketing. Multiplex also shows its impact on the
price values of the surrounding areas.
Multiplexes concept changed the whole theoretical practices of development with forced
changes. If the arrangement of the multiplexes is in negative manner it creates the problems such
as traffic congestions, accidents,high rise buildings, ventilation and depletion in land prices
