Master Plan II - 2031

Preface
The Mysore City is located at 76 o12‟ (East) longitude and 12 o 18‟ (North) latitude. It is the
second single largest City in the State of Karnataka. It was the capital of the former princely state
of Mysore and is now a Divisional headquarters having a population of about 10.14 lakhs, as per
Census 2011.
Mysore City is one of the important tourist destinations in India. The major touristic spots are
Mysore Palace, Zoo gardens, Somanathpura Temple, nearness to Wildlife Sanctuaries, like
Bandipur Reserve Forest, Nagarhole Reserve Forest and its proximity to world famous Belur &
Halebedu Temples, which are just within 160 km from the Mysore City. It is the second cleanest
City in India as per 2010 survey
The State government, under the provisions of the Karnataka Town and Country Planning Act
1961, which provide for regulation of planned growth of land-use and development for Urban
Areas, constituted a City Planning Authority for Mysore for preparation of development plans
for the Mysore Local Planning Area. The Planning Authority for this Local Planning Area
prepared a comprehensive development plan for the Mysore City Local Planning area and the
same was approved by government (final) in 1981. The Local Planning Area was subsequently
extended during 1983 to include Nanjangud and Environs, and the total extent of the combined
Local Planning Area was 495.32 sq km.
The Mysore Urban Development Authority was constituted under the provisions of the KUDA
Act 1987, on 16.05.1988 & the Urban Development Authority took up the planning functions, as
provided under sec (69) of the Act. A separate planning wing headed by the Town Planner
Member of the Authority came into being, and the Urban Development Authority started
functioning as the Planning Authority for the Mysore- Nanjangud Local planning Area.
Revision of Mater Plan (Revision-I) was taken up by MUDA and the master plan was finally
approved by govt. vide Govt. order No. HUD/337/TTP 96. Dated 16.5.1997, for the. Plan period
up to 2011 A.D. As per Sec13 (D) of KTCP Act 1961, revision of Master Plan was supposed to
have been taken i.e. before 2007, but fixing up the agency for preparation of Master Plan and
obtaining of GIS Maps has taken much time.
The Authority took all steps to take up the revision of Master Plan & SAI Consulting Engineers
Pvt. Ltd, Ahmedabad were fixed as Agency for preparation of Master Plan. The revision of the
Master Plan (Revision II) includes a total area of 507 sq. km including the recently added
villages to the Local Planning Area. The Master Plan prepared by the Town Planner Member,
through SAI Consulting Engineers, Ahmedabad, was considered by the Authority in its meeting
held on 12.03.2013, resolved to submit the Master Plan II to government for final approval. The
Authority has, on this occasion also resolved to thank all the concerned who have made it

possible to finalize the Master Plan (Revision II). Particular mention is made in respect of the
Mysore City Corporation and the Town Municipal Council, Nanjangud for their suggestions
offered during the presentations made before them by the Town Planner Member.
The Authority owes sincere thanks to Sri T.K. Anil Kumar, Secretary, UDD, Govt. of
Karnataka, and Sri B.M. Tirakana Goudar, Director of Town and Country Planning, Bangalore,
and also thankful to former Directors Sri H.B. Mukunda, Sri S. S. Topagi, Sri S. B .Honnur for
their valuable suggestions and modifications suggested for the Master Plan. The Authority also

Master Plan II - 2031

1 Chapter 1
1.1 Approach to the Preparation of Master Plan for Mysore Local Planning Area

Introduction
Preparation of Master Plan for a city is a long drawn exercise. It is easier to prepare a plan for a
new town and the master plan for an existing town or a city is to be preceded by a diagnostic
studies and analysis. The growth trends of the past, development and direction of growth of the
recent past, the current factors influencing the growth and as a planner, the likely developments
in the next 10 to 15 years, as a short term and next 20 to 25 years, as a perspective plan for the
city have to be considered in approaching the master plan for Mysore city and LPA.
Planning has economic, social and physical dimensions. The city grows both in physical and
Demographic terms but it has to be developed in physical terms through allocation and
organization of land (land use plans), strengthen the economic base for sustainable development
and make people happier through social approach. The physical environment should be healthy
and convenient and physical plans should facilitate social interaction and finally the plans to
have visual attraction.
Compact development in the interest of optimum utilization of infrastructure is another approach
for city planning. The approach to master plan for Mysore for the year 2021 has to take into
consideration the above factors. Mysore is now considered as a heritage city in addition to
cultural, royal and garden city tags. The Local Planning Area is rich with natural valleys, water
bodies, rich greeneries and famous Chamundi Hill, which forms the backdrop for the city.
Mysore city is also a central place of a higher order, in greater Mysore Region, covering
Chamarajanagar, Mandya and Mysore districts in Southern Karnataka. The role that the city has
to play in providing higher order services and facilities are also kept in view while preparing the
plan for this planning area.
A brief look at the past planning attempts to Mysore city shows that urban renewal was
attempted in 19th and early 20th centuries with the provisions of urban infrastructure and
widening of roads in Mandi Mohalla, reorganization of space and planned residential
developments by erstwhile Dewans through the City Improvement Trust Board. Mysore city, (in
1903) had palace and Fort with 1.5 kilometer length of street. In over 200 years, the city‟s
Corporation area is 128 sq. km., urbanized area of 168 sq. km. and Local Planning Area of 507
sq. km. The authorities in the past laid emphasis on compact growth with basic urban
infrastructure. Today the planners are faced with the horizontal expansion and urban sprawl.
The future demand for land for public and semipublic use is difficult to meet in the context of
present residential layouts coming up in private sector.

1.2 Preparation of Master Plan


The following factors are kept in view in the preparation of Master plan for Mysore-
Nanjangud LPA for 2031
1. Vision of Mysore city for 2031 to preserve the cultural, heritage and royal city
characteristics.
2. To strengthen the economic base of the Mysore city region through allocation of land for
economic activities like Household industries, Information Technology, Bio-Technology,
food industries, Tourism related activities and traffic and transportation.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 1


Master Plan II - 2031

3. To augment the urban infrastructure and provision of urban services and utilities as per the
accepted norms and standards as far as possible.
4. To promote compact development with optimum residential density and balanced land use.
5. To make Mysore city as a SLUM FREE CITY keeping in line with the Central
Government proposal to make at least 10 cities in India as Slum free cities.
6. To preserve and conserve heritage and heritage structures of national and state importance,
natural areas and water bodies, Vision Control to enhance the natural landscape.
7. To work out a proper circulation pattern in the light of the current and future residential
developments in outer areas, bridging the missing links in the road hierarchy, widening of
certain roads and suggest geometric design and redesign of intersection, junctions and
circles.
8. To promote CBD of Mysore city as a vibrant and dynamic hub with additional facilities
and decongestion measures, declare few corridors as Mutation Corridors and to permit
commercial activities on roads of 18 meters and above with suitable building lines.
9. To workout Development Control Regulations to enforce the various provisions of the
Master Plan with special Development Control Regulations for Eco-planning District and
Agricultural Zones.
10. The last but not the least and more important is that the master plan is for the people of
Mysore Planning Area. The Master Plan is comprehensive, comprehensible, flexible,
implementable and enforceable.
11. In order that the Master plan is citizen-centric, a series of discussions have been held
formally and informally with a majority of stakeholders like members of the Development
Authority, Elected Representatives of the Mysore City Corporation with a formal
presentation before the Honorable. Mayor and Corporators, learned and informed citizens
of Mysore through the Institution of Engineers, Mysore local center and Town planners.
The approach to master plan preparation is facilitated by the people and professionals. As
this master plan is a statutory document, all the citizens in the Local Planning Area were
given an opportunity to actively participate and interact with the competent authority to
express their views and offer valuable suggestions when the Master Plan was placed before
them for Public Comments. This has come a long way in giving final touches to the master
plan and making the plan a truly people centric document.

1.3 Objectives
Keeping in view the above approaches, the following objectives are envisaged in the
master plan preparation.
1. To promote Mysore city as the destination for investment in nonpolluting economic
activities like Information Technology, Bio-Technology, service sectors and tourism
related activities.
2. To promote and conserve the cultural heritage, preserve the natural characteristics of the
city and its environs through special Development Regulations.
3. To plan for an emerging Metropolis with options for Mono/Metro Rail system, Peripheral
roads and suitable linkages with the surrounding settlements, access to urban infrastructure
in peri-urban areas and de-concentration of economic activities through District
Commercial centers.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 2


Master Plan II - 2031

4. Suitable Planning measures to prevent the misuse of natural landscapes like water bodies,
natural valleys and Hills through declaring a Special Eco-planning District

1.4 Proposals
The planning Proposals for 2031 for Mysore-Nanjangud LPA are made on the basis of
following observations and inferences made through diagnostic survey and analysis.
1. Mysore city‟s location is favorable for location of many economic activities. The LPA
enjoys salubrious climate, geologically stable, drained by two river systems and the
hinterland is blessed with natural resources.
2. The total population of LPA in 2001 was 1.023 million. The growth rate though steady, till
1991 slowed down in the last decade. Considering the present developments and the
pressure on Bangalore Metropolis, Mysore City‟s population growth will be higher in the
coming decades.
3. Higher work participation rate is observed in the recent years. Therefore, economic
activities particularly in the tertiary sectors need to be provided. Mysore City and its
surroundings will have tertiary sectors related activities as the main economic base
followed by manufacturing and software sectors.
4. Area under residential use has been observed to be below 40%. The vacant land under
residential use which is nearly 17% will take care of the current housing shortage. In
addition to this vacant land, many private layouts are also providing developed residential
sites. Though the pressure on Urban Development Authority is less to provide developed
housing sites to MIG, HIG groups, the pressure on MUDA for providing developed
housing sites to LIG & EWS continues to remain. Area under open spaces is below 10%.
Considering the green areas in the LPA there is enough lungs space available for the
residents. There is only one CBD in LPA and the current trend is for decentralized
commercial district. This trend needs to be addressed in the Master Plan.
5. The existing road network of Mysore city is radial pattern. This radial pattern needs to be
linked with appropriate roads at regular intervals to reduce the traffic congestion on the
city roads. This issue is partially addressed by the system of Ring roads. The major
requirement in CBD is off street parking facility. From the point of view of pedestrian
safety and smooth vehicle flow, building lines are to be enforced on major roads where
commercial developments are coming up. The mass transportation in Mysore is mainly
through Bus supplemented by private transport of four wheelers and three wheelers.
Traffic problems needs to be addressed with the growth of vehicular traffic.
6. The housing shortage is not a serious problem. Developed residential sites are being
provided by MUDA and private developers. The real estate business has picked up in
Mysore which is an indication of the development.
7. The Mysore city currently enjoys good urban infrastructures in terms of Roads, Water,
Sewerage, Education and Health. However, peri-urban area and rural settlements in LPA
do not enjoy similar infrastructure. Considering the various schemes under JnNURM the
water requirements of Mysore city and few villages are taken care of for the entire
planning period. The only area of concern under infrastructure is energy requirement
which is not favorable. This could be a weak point in attracting economic activities in
LPA.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 3


Master Plan II - 2031

8. Mysore city and the planning area have higher order educational and health facilities.
However primary schools and basic health centers may have to be given priority in some
rural settlements and new residential neighborhoods.
9. Mysore city and its environs are blessed with touristic resources. The Palaces and Heritage
buildings combined with natural features and religious places continue to attract tourists
not only from the rest of the country but also from other countries. Mysore city has been
listed as the fourth most preferred destination out of the 31 cities in the world on the basis
of survey conducted by New York Times. The key issue in the Master Plan is to preserve
the heritage character and plan for enhancing the cultural and heritage values.
10. The city‟s urban environment is clear and Air and Water pollution is below the permissible
limits except in CBD of Mysore city. The major air polluter is from the traffic than from
the Industries. With the supply of higher grade fuel and new combustion, the pollution
level may be kept down at acceptable levels. In this context the role of lung space is
important.

1.5 Population
The projected population for Mysore city will be 16.5lakhs for 2021 & 21.00 lakhs for the
planning period 2031. Similarly for Nanjangud; the projected population is 95,000 for 2021 &
1.10 lakhs for the planning period. Thus the total population for LPA will be 19.09 lakhs for
2021& 23.77lakhs by the year 2031.
The existing town level density of Mysore City, in 2009 (Estimated), was 85.60PPHa whereas
the gross residential density was about 185.50PPHa, taking into consideration the existing
residential vacant plots within the developed area. The corresponding figure for Nanjangud
town, during 2009, was 81.30PPHa and 135.69 pph. The residential densities, at various levels of
Mysore and Nanjangud town are given below.

1.6 Land requirement for Mysore urban area


The land requirement for the proposed development in the plan period can be assessed by
adopting an optimum town level density. This may be about 100 PPHa to 150 PPHa adopting a
density of 100 PPHa; a total area of 21,000 ha of land is required.
In the normal planning process, the above land required for development within the plan period
will be included in the conurbation limits that can be worked out around the core city, based on
physical constraints and permissions granted by the planning authority for developments. In the
existing situation (in Mysore-Nanjangud local planning area), permission for changes of land use
from agriculture to non-agriculture have been permitted irrespective of their location in relation
to the developed area. It is observed that the lands converted or recommended to be converted

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 4


Master Plan II - 2031

for non-agricultural uses are in excess of the land required for the development up to the plan
period of 2031.The land required for the development as stated above to meet the population of
21 lakhs in the plan period 2031 works out to only 21,000 Ha. The Authority is proposing all the
existing developments in and around the city including the changes of land use permitted by
government and the area recommended by this authority for development. But a continuous
conurbation that may be conceived including some of the lands which have already been
converted for non-agricultural uses and other physical constraints, is worked out and is
considered to arrive at the town level density and also to develop the land in different phases of
development and to extend the city‟s civic infrastructure by the urban development authority in
the phased manner, up to the end of the plan period (2031).The total conurbation thus conceived
works out to 255.12 sq.km. This area includes 25.51sq km) of Agricultural zone including forest
area of Chamundi hill and other undevelopable land. The density works out to 82.31 PPHa for
the year 2031.

1.7 Land requirement for Nanjangud town


Adopting a town level density of 100PPHa, the total land required for Nanjangud town is 1100.0
Ha. The total developable area within the proposed conurbation is 1092.84Ha.This includes the
land already developed by the urban development authority and the private layouts in the town
extensions.

1.8 Satellite Townships Concept


In the Government order U.D.D/431/MDP/2009 dated 24-12-2009 a total number of seven
villages namely, Nagavala, Bommenehalli, Manikyapura, Kamarhalli of Yelwala Hobli and
Dhanagalli, Daripura and Baradanapura of Jayapura Hobli were brought under the jurisdiction of
Mysore- Nanjangud L.P.A. Government has observed in the preamble of the order that some of
these villages are showing signs of developments and there is need to plan and regulate
developments on the basis of satellite townships.
It may be observed here that many residential layouts have been developed and agricultural lands
have been converted to nonagricultural uses in these above villages. Also it is observed that large
extents of agricultural lands have been converted to non-agricultural purposes in the outskirt
villages of the L.P.A, like Dadadhalli, Udbur, Vajamangala, Gohalli etc., within the local
planning area and also in villages outside the local planning area. A few gated communities or
layouts have already been developed in Talur and Sinduvalli village limits, taking advantage of
the Jayapura-Kadakola link (existing MDR, this link is proposed to be the 45 m. wide peripheral
link between H. D. Kote road and Bangalore–Nilgiri road in this plan).There are pockets of
residential developments between Mysore city and Nanjangud town also.
These above developments are not contiguous to the existing developed area or not too close to
the developable area of Mysore for considering them for inclusion in the proposed conurbation
of the Mysore city and Nanjangud, to achieve compact developments. They are isolated in nature
or they are in local groups, providing only for residential developments with no economic base
of their own. They have to depend on either Mysore city or Nanjangud town or the industrial
establishments in Thandavapura industrial estate or T.V.S factory located outside L.P.A in
Sinduvalli village.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 5


Master Plan II - 2031

In the above prevailing situation, it is proposed to consider the developable area beyond the
proposed conurbation of both Mysore city and Nanjangud, as separate townships, in cases where
these areas are in contiguous groups or close enough for such satellite growths or if they are
isolated then they are to be considered as spot developments.
In either of the above situations they are to be designed as satellites of the core city, with their
own civic infrastructure and depending entirely for economic support from the core city or
Nanjangud town. In course of time, probably in the plan periods to come, they merge with the
main urban areas, as has happened elsewhere.

2.1 Land use Proposals - Local Planning Area

2.1.1 Salient Features of the Master Plan


The salient land use proposals are as follows:
1. The RCDP 2011 [Revised (MP R-1)] had only 30 planning districts. Confined to Mysore
City Conurbation only, which did not cover the entire L.P.A. The Revised Master plan
proposals (R-2) has made provision for reorganizing some planning districts and creation of
a new planning district called “Eco Planning District (PD-9)” for Chamundi hills and to
cover the entire LPA into 45 Planning Districts. Nanjangud is covered in a separate planning
district. (PD-42).
2. The Airport is proposed to be expanded to accommodate the facilities for the landing of Air
Bus and Boeing aircraft. The runway is proposed to be lengthened from 1.7 km. to 2.4 km.
The existing Bangalore-Nilgiri road is proposed to be deviated to accommodate the airport
expansion plans. As Mysore is a tourist destination, the demand for tourism related activities
are bound to grow. Therefore, the tourism related activities like Convention Centers,
Exhibition and Hotels, Sports activities (Sports village) are proposed near the Airport area.
The details of the area for this are given in the proposals of the planning district.
3. In addition to the tourism related activities, there is also the loud thinking to locate a film
city. Mysore city provides an excellent opportunity for the location of film city. Mysore is
always known for culture and arts. In order to accommodate the demand for film city, an
extent of 256.21hectares of lands has been earmarked on the southern side of the airport
(Kalalavadi & Udbur village limits). Within this area a number of tourism related activities
like Golf course, Crafts village, Sports Village and Theme parks could come up. These two
activities would generate employment opportunities and promote economic development of
the planning area.
4. No new area has been proposed for industrial use, as the KIADB have already acquired land
in Mysore Urban area and in Thandavapura industrial area. It is seen that some industrial
plots in Thandavapura industrial area are still vacant and future demand for industries could
be met in Thandavapura. The plan also envisages retaining the defunct industrial land for
industrial use only in future.
5. From the point of view of compact development and optimum utilization of land, no
additional land is required for residential purposes. The existing vacant lands (MUDA
layouts and private layouts), and permissions given for change of land use, mainly for
residential use, will take care of the residential requirements even beyond the planning
period of 2031, in both Mysore and Nanjangud Urban areas.
6. From the point of view of spatial distribution of amenities, services and public utility, land
has been allocated for health facilities; play grounds, sports ground, fire station, truck
terminals and bus depots. The details of the locations and the area allocated are discussed in
the proposals at planning district level.
7. The Radial Corridors and main arteries linking the city outside the existing built up area
have been identified as Mutation Corridor Zones, in selected stretches, for which, separate
regulations are framed in Development Control Regulations.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 7


Master Plan II - 2031

8. It is also felt necessary to decongest the CBD, in so far as the commercial activity is
concerned. Hence, proposal to decentralize the central commercial activity, by creation of
new District Centres in outer areas, is made. A separate Special Commercial Zone is
proposed for development of these District Centres.
9. The L.P.A has a number of Ancient Monuments & Heritage structures. Mysore City has-
been identified as a „HERITAGE CITY”. In view of this, Special Control Areas are
declared in the L.P.A to cover all the Ancient Monuments & Heritage structures and areas of
Scenic beauty. Separate set of DEVLOPMENT CONTOL REGULATIONS ARE
FRAMED for these special control areas.

The total area of Mysore city conurbation for 2031 is 29242.51 Ha (292.42 sq.km). The proposed
residential area is 15735.06Ha which works out to be 53.81% of the developed area.
Transportation uses occupy 15.62% of the developable area The Chamundi hill forest, the special
agriculture zone and the other agricultural area account for nearly 7.41% of the total area.
2.3 Proposal for Nanjangud Town
Nanjangud town and the environs are considered as a separate planning district. The proposed
conurbation drawn for Nanjangud town is worked out, which includes the Temple town area, the
new extension in the south west and western part and the industrial estate developed by the
K.I.A.D.B, in the North West, on the bank of Kabini River. The village pockets, in between the
town and the industrial area are also included in the proposed conurbation area.
The total area covered in this planning district (Planning district No.42) is 1779.46 Ha (17.80
sq.km) the land proposed for various urban uses (developable land), within the proposed
conurbation works out to 1118.67 Ha (62.80% of the total area of the planning district). The rest
of the area is wet agricultural land under the Kabini and Nugu reservoir and other river channels.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 8


Master Plan II - 2031

In the urban area, residential use account for 489.17 Ha (43.73% of the developable land). The
major other urban use is the industrial use (in K.I.A.D.B and other minor industries) which
account for 218.45 Ha (19.53%). The other major uses are the open spaces (11.18%) and the
traffic & transportation (14.30%), public & semi-public uses 7.16%. (The detailed proposal of
this planning district is given separately at the planning district level report.)

Master Plan II - 2031

3.1 Land use Proposals for Planning Districts

3.1.1 Planning District 1


Existing Scenario:
Planning District 1 forms the core area of the city. It covers a total area of 300.15ha. The three
major land uses are P&SP, Traffic and transportation and commercial followed by residential
uses. A higher percentage in this core area is under P&SP and this is mainly contributed by the
palace complex and the K R hospital Complex. As this is the core area; where higher percentage
under traffic and transportation is mainly contributed not only by roads but also the three Bus
Terminals; one intra city bus stand, Mofusil bus stand (suburban bus stand) and also the private
bus stand. The green space represented by parks is mainly surrounding the palace and two
grounds one freedom fighters park and another JK grounds area. However, the main land use in
terms of economic activity continues to be commercial and it is spatially concentrated on either
side of the arterial road (Sayyaji Rao road and Ashoka Road).
Planning Proposals:
As this is the central area (CBD) it is seen that some spaces under commercial and P&SP
category are not put to optimum use. It is desirable to identify these spaces and propose either
redevelopment or making use the space to meet the demand of the central area. Therefore the
following proposals are made.
1. Remodeling of Devaraja Market: There have been proposals and suggestions from the
authorities to take up the remodeling of the Devaraja market. However those who have
concern for heritage and conservation are resisting the remodeling of this market. As it is
observed that, part of the Devaraja Market is developing structural weakness and it may not
withstand the commercial pressure. The central area also needs parking space and the present
parking pattern is mainly on street parking on the arterial roads and sub arterial roads. As
Mysore city traffic is growing fast, on street parking may not meet the future demand of
parking. Therefore it is suggested that the Devaraja market be taken up for remodeling by
providing vehicular parking space in the basement and commercial activity on the ground
and two floors. This would however not take away the heritage characteristics as the
proposed building could be replica of the existing building type. The Indian Heritage City
Network Foundation (IHCNF), has worked out a proposal for Redevelopment of
Devaraja Market, considering the heritage aspects and has submitted the same to the
city corporation for action. This may be examined by the Special Heritage Committee
constituted under Special Development Control Regulations of this Masterplan. This
proposal is to be taken on priority not only to meet the parking requirements but also to
utilize the precious land in the central area. This proposal could also decongest and ensure a
cleaner environment than what is seen today, particularly on the western side of the market.
2. K R Hospital Complex: As there is very little off street parking space in the central area it is
proposed that the open spaces around the hospital complex particularly on the northern and
western side could be used for off street parking without any structural changes.
3. The former exhibition complex now under the control of the medical college is not put to
optimum use. Therefore the department of medical education may take up new construction
along with provision for off street parking facilities. Some parcels of land could be given for

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 11


Master Plan II - 2031

private development under PPP model. This development may be limited to the parking of
vehicles and public use activities. No commercial activity should be permitted other than
incidental to the medical college use like restaurant.
4. Lansdowne Building: This space is also recommended for redevelopment as the present use
is not fetching the optimum return. The ground floor could be commercial to retain the
existing business activity and the first floor could be for various professional offices like
lawyers, tax consultants, engineers, architects, doctors, etc.
5. The informal sector like hawkers, vendors are mainly found in this core area. It is proposed
to reallocate them to the Harsha road near Sangama theatre, eastern side of town hall and the
northern side of the KR Hospital complex on the Irwin road.
6. Part of JK ground particularly the southern side on Dhanvantri road is proposed for basement
parking.
7. The land adjoining to the Wellington Lodge (now a museum) belongs to the state
government and is a notified monument. It was earlier leased out for vehicular parking. As
there is a demand for parking near the intercity bus stand this space could be used as a multi-
level vehicular parking for the CBD area, with due concurrence from the concerned
department and the design of the MLCP shall take in to consideration the heritage aspects
and necessary clearance be obtained from the concerned department and also from the
Special Heritage Committee to be constituted under Special Development Control
Regulation of this Master Plan.
8. The Nanjaraja Bahaddhur Choultry located at the junction of Vinoba road and Dewans road
has occupied a potential commercial area and has adequate vacant land around it. This
premise is being let out for temporary exhibition, sales etc very frequently. This being a
prime land not used optimally at present. It is now proposed to utilize the vacant land around
this building for Multi-Level Car Parking. Suitable design may be worked out to utilize this
facility optimally. MLCP shall take in to consideration the heritage aspects and
necessary clearance be obtained from the concerned department and also from the
Special Heritage Committee to be constituted under Special Development Control
Regulation of this Master Plan. This will go a long way in easing the parking problems in
CBD area.
9. The vacant land opposite to the medical college hostel could be retained as organized open
space as any activity in this land may interfere with the natural drainage.
10. It is observed that the heavy vehicles like buses and mini buses coming to the palace are
parked on the Purandardasa road. This is interfering with smooth flow of traffic. Therefore,
the open space available in the palace office complex and gun house complex could be used
to park the vehicles and this may also fetch revenue to the palace authorities.
11. It is learnt that Vivekananda memorial is planned to commemorate the visit of the swami
Vivekananda on Narayana Sastry road opposite to Maharani‟s junior college. The
architectural features of this memorial should conform to the main features of the Heritage
building like Maharani‟s junior college and Seshasdri House.
12. All the remodeling of the above spaces could be in accordance with the existing architectural
character.

3.1.2 Planning District 2


Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 207.65 ha land. The predominant uses are Residential,
Traffic & Transportation and Industrial. Therefore this is a mixed land use district. No buffer
zone is observed between the industrial & residential area except on the eastern side where a
large chunk of land is under parks & open space category (burial ground). The commercial
activities are mainly confined to the Sayyaji Rao road, Pulikeshi road, Sawday road, Anegundi
road and New Bannimantap road. Mixed land use is observed in Tilak Nagar and Mandi Mohalla
where residential cum commercial and Industrial cum residential are observed as a number of
household industries are located here. However these industries have not been marked in the
map. The major industries like Mysore Lac & Paints and a number of Rice & Oil mills are
located in the central part of the district. Part of this planning district had undergone the urban
renewal during 1920‟s & 30‟s and this is seen through a well-organized grid iron pattern. Under
Public & Semi Public use, the major buildings are Central jail, Govt. Teachers Training Center
and Mission Hospital. The western boundary of this district is marked by railway line and the
residential between the railway line and the Sayyaji Rao road is observed with high density and
also the location of slums.
Planning Proposals:
1. In the mixed land use zone in the Tilak Nagar & Mandi Mohalla (between Sawday road &
Pulikeshi road), no new permission should be accorded to industries as number of existing
industries have appeared to be Non-conforming in nature
2. As the central jail is located on the main road, the unused space in front of the jail should be
landscaped and vacant spaces are organized and fenced. This would prevent the
encroachment and also misuse of the open space. It is proposed to relocate the Central Jail to
an area in between Mysore and Nanjangud on B.N road. The present Jail area can be suitably
used for Public & Semi Public uses and also housing of the police department personal.
3. Commercial use may be permitted on Chikkaveeranna Rice mill road (as proposed in 2011
RCDP). However no commercial activity shall be permitted on the eastern side of the Sayyaji
Road. This stretch of road is proposed to be preserved as an important road during Dasara
festivities.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 13


Master Plan II - 2031

4. With regard to Circulation pattern, the circles identified in the traffic & transportation plan
and the building line proposed for the identified roads shall be followed.
5. The vacant stretch of land on the western side of Medar block and along the railway track
should be retained for the purpose for which it is earmarked (CA site).

3.1.3 Planning District 3


Existing Scenario:
The Planning District 3 covers an area of 581.42 ha of land. At present, out of this total area
nearly 24 percent of the lands though included in the developed area are under agriculture and
water bodies. The residential area in the northern part of this district is juxtaposed by agricultural
fields on either side except a small stretch of land under public and semipublic use. This district
is predominantly residential with 36 percent of the area under residential use. It is observed that
area under Public & Semi Public is just 5.50 percent and area under open spaces is less than 5
percent. Only a small stretch of land is under organized park. Though these parks are spatially
distributed in the planning district the area appears to be less. However this district has little
agricultural area and also one major water body namely Devanur Lake. The educational facilities
like primary & high schools are also spatially well distributed. The road pattern is grid iron type
and major part of the district is developed by MUDA. Commercial activities are also well
distributed and along the two main roads namely Shivaji road and Kesare road and along
Mahadevapura road.
Planning Proposals:
1. The vacant land on the intermediate ring road between PWD quarters and Rajendra circle
where HT line is located was earmarked for parks and open spaces. This is proposed to be
retained and is proposed to be fenced and protected from encroachments. Similarly the entire
belt running along the HT line is earmarked as open space for protection and safety.
2. The green space adjoining the southern side of Devanur Lake is proposed to be developed as
organized park and integrated development of lakes and open spaces is proposed. This
proposal is made keeping in view that there is no large open space in the entire planning
district and this open space is surrounded by residential area.
Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 14
Master Plan II - 2031

3. Land for location of a mini sports grounds & a swimming pool is earmarked in this
planning district.
4. The major roads like Mahadevapura road, Kesare road, Shivaji road, St. Mary‟s road,
Pulikeshi road and ring road are recommended for commercial use on either side by
following the specific building line and the control regulations. The Shivaji road ends
abruptly at the existing burial ground and connects only a local residential road. This being a
major road can act as a through road to connect the northeastern part of the city. Therefore it
is proposed to link this road to the existing 18m road from Mahadevapura road to the Outer
Ring road.
5. The road from Tipu circle to the LIC building is recommended as commercial use.
6. Provision for locating a Rail station along the identified Monorail corridor is made at the
junctions of outer ring road and the Bangalore-Nilgiri road.
7. Lands are reserved for the provision of slaughter houses within this zone.

3.1.4 Planning District 4


Existing Scenario:
This Planning district is located in the northeastern part of the city, at the junction of the outer
ring road and Mahadevapura road. The total area of the planning district is 248.31ha. At present
vacant land to the extent of 68.02ha exists in the district. The predominant uses in this planning
district are residential, traffic and transportation. The Sathagalli Bus depot and Terminal taken up
under JnNURM is located at the junction of Ring road and Mahadevapura road.
Planning Proposals:
The proposed land use for the district has been worked out by taking in to consideration the
existing land use pattern and the unimplemented proposals of the approved Master plan. Further
the need of the planning district and the present scope for making new proposals are examined
and the following important proposals are made.
1. A District Commercial center is proposed adjacent to the KSRTC Bus terminal on
Mahadevapura road.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 15


Master Plan II - 2031

2. It is observed that a valley is flowing towards northwest of the planning district along which
there are pockets of agriculture and vacant lands. These have been proposed for developing
an open space belt for maintaining as lung space and development of parks along this valley.
3. The residential areas are provided with civic amenity plots considering the availability of
land for them.
4. Along the main road linking Mahadevapura road and Outer Ring road and along other main
roads commercial uses are suggested.

3.1.5 Planning District 5


Existing Scenario:
The Planning District is located in the northeastern part of the city, north of the Outer Ring Road.
The total developed area of the Planning District is 226.76 Hectare. This area has been newly
developed by the Urban Development Authority and is one of the major residential layouts.
Except for a residential colony (Bharathi Nagar) along Mahadevapura Road and sewage
treatment plant in the northwest, the remaining area is not built up.
Planning Proposals:
1. The proposed land use pattern as already been approved in the scheme of the Urban
Development Authority is followed.
2. The land for commercial development is suggested along the Outer Ring Road and
Mahadevapura Road which forms a commercial node along with the commercial
developments suggested in planning district number 4 adjacent to the Bus Terminal.
3. The CA areas and open space areas are as per the Urban Development authority scheme.
4. The existing agricultural lands on either side of the Sewage treatment plant is reserved for the
expansion of the sewage treatment works.
5. The land between the Varuna Nala (Irrigation Channel) and the residential road in this layout
in the north is proposed for green buffer which will act as open space and also from the
safety point of view.
6. Land for location of Lalitha Kala Academy has been allotted by MUDA in this planning
district.

3.1.6 Planning District 6


Existing Scenario:
Planning district 6 covers an area of 357.65hectares. The major land uses are residential, public
and semi-public and traffic and transportation. Nearly 11% of the developed land is vacant. This
district is one of the oldest parts of the city (Nazarabad) and also the new layouts formed by
MUDA. The major portion of P&SP uses are government guest house, mini Vidhana Souda,
police parade ground and also DFRL. DFRL and Police Academy have their residential quarters
close to the office space, thus establishing the work-home relationship. The commercial use is
mainly on the south western side as it is close to the CBD that is also the planning district 1. The
city‟s main stadium “Chamundi Vihar Stadium” is located in this district and has got access form
three sides. Vacant land is found near the Chamundi Vihar stadium and also in Gayatripuram
area. Other than this major recreational space only small stretch of green space are found along
the HT lines. The new commercial developments are observed on Khytamanhalli road (24m
wide), Mahadevapura road and Bannur road. The Mysore milk dairy is also located in this
district and is classified under industrial use.
Planning Proposals:
1. The vacant land in survey number 117, 118 and part of 121 are reserved under open spaces in
the RCDP - 2011. This should be developed as parks and playgrounds.
2. It is observed that some deviation is made in laying the road linking Mahadevapura road and
the Kythamaranahalli road and the land between HT line and the residential area are reserved
for open spaces (parks and playgrounds).
3. It is observed that the 24 meter wide road proposed in the RCDP 2011 is not executed as per
the plan and this has resulted in bad junction. This might pose a hindrance for the smooth
flow of vehicular traffic; therefore suitable traffic intersection plan is proposed to be
designed.
4. Commercial development is recommended on Kythamaranahalli road - Ridge House junction
up to Jyothi Nagara.
5. The open space opposite to the KSRTC bus stand is recommended for the multi-level
vehicular parking as there is demand for parking for the commuters and also heavy
commercial development is observed on the Bangalore Nilgiri road.

Master Plan II - 2031

6. There is scope for creating parking facility in the bus terminal itself by providing parking in
upper tiers in the premises of the Bus stand itself, which may be taken up for further
augmentation.

3.1.7 Planning District 7


Existing Scenario:
Planning district seven is a residential district covers an area of 562.14 hectares of land. The
residential area occupies a major share followed by traffic and transportation. As this is purely a
residential district higher percentage of traffic and transportation use is observed. The area under
open spaces is grossly in adequate with less than 3 percent of the total area under open spaces
which also includes three burial grounds. Similarly area under commercial use is also less than 1
percent and commercial developments are observed on the northern side and the extreme
southern side along the Bannur road. Scattered commercial developments are also observed. The
land use analysis shows that nearly fifth of the land is under vacant category. The major portion
of this vacant land is already planned for residential layouts.
Planning Proposals:
1. The commercial development along Rajkumar road is proposed on both sides.
2. The area reserved for the German press is non-functional, but this land is retained as
industrial use and economic activity zone should be encouraged.

3.1.9 Planning District 9


Existing Scenario:
The Chamundi hill forms the backdrop. This hill is considered to be older than Himalayas. This
hill has an ecological role by being habitat for wild life, birds and rare flora. This hill forms
catchment area for two lakes - Karanji Kere on the north and Uttanahally Kere on the south.
Besides this natural feature, Chamundi hill is the abode for the presiding deity of the Mysore
Maharajas. The Chamundeshwari temple, built during the Vijayanagara rule was continued to be
developed by providing steps along the pedestrian path and motorable roads. The hill top is
approachable by two alternative motorable roads, one form the northeast and another from
southwest. All these roads and the pedestrian foot steps are electrified. This presents a beautiful
sight at night, visible from different parts of the city. Besides, the temple, the famous Nandi Bull
is also attracting tourists. Mysore Maharaja has built a Palace, called Rajendravilas Palace,
which was once a Heritage hotel. The people of Mysore and also the people of the surrounding
states have attached a special religious importance to the presiding deity. In this context it is
necessary to preserve and conserve this important natural feature and its environs. The
Chamundi hill located in an elevated place could be viewed from a distance of 15 to 20kms
without any obstruction. Therefore it is proposed to attach special importance to the Chamundi
hills and its environs by declaring this area as an Eco-Planning District.
The planning district covers in area of 1346.87 hectares. The highest point in this hill 3,489 ft
(1063.4 m) above M.S.L. It is currently observed that some developments are coming up which
are inconsistent and incompatible with the characteristics of the area. These developments are to
be controlled and any little damage done to ecology has to be restored. In this context the
following planning proposals and special regulations are proposed.
Planning Proposals:
1. The existing land use like residential, commercial and recreational uses may be continued
and all future developments are subject to the clearance from the Department of Forest and
Departments of Environment of State and Central Governments.
2. No quarries such as stone quarry and extraction of earth for brick making, etc. shall be
permitted in the district.
3. Plantation has to be introduced on the eastern and southern side of the hill.
4. There has to be open space buffer zone up to a minimum 100m from the edge of the existing
forest boundary. This aspect shall be taken into consideration while working out proposals of
planning district number 35 & 36 which are located south of this planning district.
5. The vacant land opposite to the Lalitha Mahal Palace is recommended to be developed as a
Heritage Park.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 20


Master Plan II - 2031

6. Special Agriculture Zone is designated around Chamundi Hill and a belt of 100m strip of this
Special Agriculture Zone is declared as a “No Development Zone” with Special Regulation
under chapter included within Development Control Regulations (Vol. III).
7. A water supply treatment plant is proposed on the BN road near the Doordarshan and within
the NO Development Zone in Hosahundi Village.

3.1.11 Planning District 11


Existing Scenario:
This planning district is located in the central part of the city and the boundaries are slightly
reorganized, which covers an area of 504.94hectares. This area was part of district number 9
which is now reorganized to have a separate planning district for Chamundi hill and environs.
The remaining part of the planning district 9 was amalgamated with other neighboring planning
districts. The northern part of Chamundi hill area now constitutes the district number 11. This
district includes the Ittegegudu residential area, the K.C layout area and the open space uses
areas like the Zoo gardens, the Karanji Lake, the Exhibition grounds and the Race Course, Golf
course etc. The important Public & Semi Public uses such as Administrative Training Institute,
the Postal Training Institute, Police Parade Ground etc. are also included in this district.
Planning Proposals:
1. The existing residential pockets are proposed to be continued without any addition.
2. The character of this planning district is of open space in nature close to the heritage areas
like the city palace and Chamundi hills and environs. The planning district includes the Zoo
gardens, the Karanji Lake the bird‟s habitat, the Race Course, the Golf course etc. which are
organized open spaces. This character is proposed to be retained and the existing vacant
lands and the areas adjacent to the existing valleys in the district are proposed to be protected
with open space related uses.
3. There is need for provision of the parking facilities and measures to reduce traffic congestion
on important roads of the district. It is suggested to provide parking facilities at two levels
along Bangalore-Nilgiri road near Hardinge circle along Lokaranjan Mahal road and the
eastern tank bund road from Ittegegudu side, and a three level parking facility on the north
western corner of Exhibition premises with entry from the tank side. (Taking advantage of
the tank bund dip, as shown in the landuse plan with no entry and exit from Bangalore-
Nilgiri road directly and also subject to the condition that the parking facility should appear
Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 22
Master Plan II - 2031

as only surface parking at B.N road level and the heritage aspect to be taken into
consideration. These parking facilities should be designed so that no scope for damage to the
heritage aspect takes place.
4. The open space opposite to Zoo garden currently used for parking is proposed to be
developed as multilevel car parking (MLCP).
5. Lalitha Mahal road (Narasimha Raja Boulevard) is identified as a heritage road. The traffic
from Bannur and T. Narasipura area pass through this road to reach B.N road through the
Intermediate Ring road creating congestion. This needs to be eased out. There is already a
proposal to have the Outer Ring road from Bannur to B.N road, with its alignment on the
southern side of Chamundi hill. It is necessary to link this proposed Outer Ring road to B.N
road on the northern side of the Chamundi hill also to ease out the traffic to reduce the traffic
in Lalitha Mahal road. To meet this requirements it is now proposed to link the proposed
Outer Ring road to B.N road on the northern side of the Chamundi hill by widening the
existing road on the southern side of the Race course to 24m width upto the Chamundi hill
road and then extend it up to the Lalithadri road through the existing agricultural land and
widening the Lalithadri road to 24mts width and link it to the proposed Outer ring road as
shown in the land use plan.
6. The important roads identified in the planning districts are listed and the proposed widths are
suggested to improve the traffic conditions. Building lines are suggested where ever
necessary.
7. A major valley passes through Doddakere Maidan. The belt all along this valley and its
tributaries are suggested to be developed as open space areas.
8. The wholesale vegetable market located on the M.G road is proposed to be developed as a
regular vegetable market to maintain the clean environment and also provide parking
facilities within this yard (Eastern side). It is observed that vehicles are irregularly parked
posing traffic problem in the morning hours.
9. Proposals for multi-level car parking (MLCP) at two places are suggested in Doddakere
maidan, as shown in land use map. The design shall get approved by the special heritage
committee under development control regulations as these proposals are within the heritage
control area.

Existing Scenario:
Planning district 14 is reorganized and covers an area of 591.74 ha, out of which nearly 25% is
undeveloped (Agriculture). This undeveloped land is mainly along the southern side of the
planning district. Within the developed area a major water body (Dalvoy tank) and agriculture
exists. The residential area comprises of J P Nagar 2nd stage, Siddalingeshwara layout and few
other private layout on the southern side of the Outer Ring road. There are pockets of vacant
lands on the southern and eastern side of the Outer Ring road.

Planning Proposals:
1. The existing vacant lands in the developed area of J.P Nagar are proposed for the various
civic amenities, as had been envisaged in the approved residential scheme. The existing

been recommended for non-agricultural uses are proposed to be retained as residential use, as
shown in the land use plan.
4. The village gramatanas namely Gejjagahalli and Kuppaluru are going to be the two urban
villages, which are to be weaved with the rest of the proposed residential area. Hence the
village roads which pass through these villages are to be deviated suitably.
5. A buffer all along the alignment of the Varuna Nala is proposed between the residential area
and the channel, which can act as open space area and also act as a safety belt from the open
channel.
6. An 18m wide road is suggested all along the east of the Railway line and is suitably linked
with the residential area in the north and existing village road from Mandakalli to Kalalavadi.

virtually splits the planning district into northern of and eastern parts. This planning district is
blessed with all the civic amenities that a planning district can have like health facilities,
education facilities, commercial centers and the open spaces which are spatially well distributed.
Presently the eastern part is under agricultural use. Little more than 9percent of the total area is
classified as vacant and these vacant lands are near the Malalawadi village pockets, adjoining
Apollo Hospital and near Ashokapuram railway station. The commercial uses are found on the
New Kantharaja Urs road, Panchamantra road, Udayaravi road and Nrupatunga road. Besides,
there is a well laid out shopping complex on Udayaravi road and Vishwamanva Double road
which are more than 24m width. This planning district also boast with well laid out playgrounds,
parks and Religious Institutions like old temples and new temple complex - ISKON

Planning Proposals:
1. This is a developed area and the open spaces and other organized developments is as per the
proposals of the RCDP 2011 and is proposed to be continued.
2. Building line is proposed for the following roads
a. Udayaravi road
b. Adichunchungiri road
c. New Kantharaja Urs road
d. Panchamantra road
e. Nrupatunga road
f. Vishwamanva Double road
Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 27
Master Plan II - 2031

g. Aniketana road
3. Some haphazard developments are observed in the village pockets of Chikkahardanahalli
and Devaiana Hundi. Redevelopment in the form of Town planning schemes are proposed
for these village pockets.
4. The water bodies (Malalawadi tank) and the natural valley have to be conserved and the low
laying areas are to be protected from flooding. It is therefore proposed to reserve the north-
south flowing valley area and also the tank area as open spaces.
5. The industrial area located on the south eastern part should be retained and not allowed to be
converted into any other use. This is suggested in order to provide employment through this
industrial development.
6. It is proposed to link the Adichunchungiri road to Pampapathy road by an 18mt road in
continuation of the road from Vivekananda circle, on the south of the Malalvadi tank.

3.1.17 Planning District 17

Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 641.17ha of land, of which nearly 25percent of the land
is undeveloped. Lingambudi Lake occupies 11.00 percent of the planning district area which is a
landmark in this planning district. Though the Lingambudi Lake and a narrow stretch of land
surrounding the lake is under forest control, residential developments have already encroached
on the north eastern side. Planned residential developments by MUDA and other house building
societies have come up in this planning district. The ring road from the Hunsur road side to H. D.
Kote road and Ooty road is passing through this planning district.

Planning Proposals:
1. All the proposed uses under Dattagalli 3rd stage schemes are retained.
2. As most of the land currently used as agriculture are getting converted to non-agricultural
uses (mainly for residential development), strict enforcement of DCR is necessary to ensure
reservation of areas for parks & playgrounds and civic amenities.
3. It is also important to preserve the Lingambudi Lake and all encroachments made shall be
removed. Hence it is proposed as open space and water front development area.
4. The circulation pattern suggested in this Master plan shall also be strictly implemented. The
residential neighborhood developments are proposed to be strictly guided by the major
circulation.

Master Plan II - 2031

5. Provision for locating a transport terminal is made and also this is identified as a future Mono
Rail corridor station, at the junction of the outer ring road and the Palya road.

3.1.18 Planning District 18


Existing Scenario:
This Planning district covers an area of 459.16ha of land of which nearly 30percent of the land is
undeveloped and is under agriculture as most of this land falls under village & on the southern
side of the ring road. Two major roads crisscross the planning district. Apart from the area under
residential use (nearly 20percent), a large portion on the western side along the H.D. Kote road
falls under Public & Semi Public use- CSTRI campus. However, the area under parks &
playground are grossly inadequate with less than 1p.c, though the area under open space is less,
the large area is under agriculture and also within the CSTRI campus Mulberry cultivation is
undertaken. The area between CSTRI and railway line falls under Mahadevapura revenue
layouts and other new layouts. Nearly 18percent of the total developed land is vacant and these
are mainly residential areas. The commercial development is observed in Mahadevapura. This
planning district also has a number of private layouts which are smaller in area.
Planning Proposals:
1. The H. D. Kote road is proposed to be widened to 45 m with suitable traffic design at H. D.
Kote – ring road intersection, as per an action plan to be worked out by incorporating the
various suggestions made in the special regulations.
2. The existing industrial area should be retained to promote economic activities.
3. The area coming under Devaraja Urs canal should be retained for agricultural purposes only.
4. Commercial development is proposed in the vacant space along the ring road. Similarly
commercial development like vehicle showroom or super bazaar is recommended near the
ring road - H. D. Kote intersection at Srirampura, which is proposed to be ultimately
developed as a district center. Commercial development is also proposed along the 18m road
in Srirampura 2nd stage.
Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 30
Master Plan II - 2031

5. It is observed that a number of private layouts have come up on the south western side of the
district which is under agricultural use.
6. Provision for locating a transport terminal is made and also this is identified as a future Mono
Rail corridor station, at the junction of the outer ring road and the H. D. Kote road.

3.1.19 Planning District 19

Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 362.06ha. Part of the planning district on the northern
side falls under Mysore University control. The southern part of the district is well laid out
residential development of Saraswathipuram. This planning district has got one urban village
pocket, i.e. K. G. Koppal. Residential area covers 23 percent followed by open spaces, traffic &
transportation and Public & Semi Public uses. While grid iron pattern is observed in
Saraswathipuram layout, a new pattern developed in 1920‟s & 30‟s on the eastern side with
district court complex as the dominating point stand out in the layout. The vista and boulevards
are also planned in this district. The commercial development follows a familiar pattern along
the main road of Saraswathipuram 1st main, 5th cross, Kamakshi hospital road, New Kantharaja
Urs road, Vishwamanava Double road, Vanivilasa road and Jayalakshmi Vilas road. The only
industrial landuse belongs to government printing press.

Planning Proposals:
1. There is very little scope to suggest any new planning proposals in this district as bulk of the
land is under University jurisdiction, Public & Semi Public use like district court complex
and well laid out residential development. In view of the rapid commercial development
observed in this district, the building lines shall be strictly followed as prescribed in table
4-1.
2. The Vista character of the Krishnaraja Boulevard road starting from court complex upto
Oriental Research Institute and on to Hunsur road is proposed to be conserved and should be

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 31


Master Plan II - 2031

free from hoardings. Hence these areas are made part of the special regulation area to take
necessary action.
3. Strict enforcement of reserving basement for vehicular parking in commercial and shopping
complex is to be enforced by Corporation authorities. This is recommended in view of the
commercial development on the main roads, pedestrian movement and the residential
character of the district.
4. There is need to consider the widening of the under bridge on the New Kantharaja Urs road,
as congestion is observed during the peak hours.
5. A large number of buildings under Public & Semi Public use fall under the heritage
character. In view of Mysore city getting the heritage status, the Architectural character of
the buildings should be retained and the surrounding environment is also kept clear of ugly
developments. Therefore, part of this district is proposed to be included in the special
regulation area. This regulation area is bounded by JLB road on the east, the Mysore-
Chamarajanagar railway line on the west, Vinoba road (Hunsur road) on the north, Chamaraj
road (Fire Brigade road) and K.G Koppal road on the south. The Krishnaraja Boulevard is
declared as a heritage road from Kantharaja Urs road to Vinoba road (Hunsur road).
6. Land for location of an Electric sub Station is provided as desired by the electricity
department in Saraswatipuram, south of Kukkarahally Tank.

Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 379.87ha of land. The major portion of this planning
district is covered by Public & Semi Public use. This Public & Semi Public is largely under
Mysore University campus. Residential area covers only around 9 percent Part of this residential
area is Vijayashreepura, an unplanned layout and later incorporated into the Corporation limits.
Bogadi 2nd stage residential development lies between the agricultural zone and Regional
Institute of Education. As major portion of the land is under University and educational
Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 32
Master Plan II - 2031

institutions namely Regional Institute of Education S.J. College of Engineering, and the Institute
of Speech and Hearing, the entire area is considered as Public & Semi Public uses. Therefore
area under traffic & transportation is shown as only around 13%. Similarly area under parks and
play ground is less than 1% (Though the area under organized open space) is less than 1%).
Nearly 13% of the land falls under Agriculture and Water body.

Planning Proposals:
1. As commercial development has started on the main road connecting Bogadi road to
Vijayanagara road, commercial use is proposed on these roads.
2. Land for location of a future mono rail station and bus transport interchange facility is
proposed in this planning district.

3.1.21 Planning District 21

Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area 291.83ha. Almost the entire planning district comes under
planned residential development under the various stages of Vijayanagara. The two major land
uses are residential with 35 percent and traffic & transportation 28 percent. However, a large
chunk of Vijayanagara 3rd & 4th stages, though planned and executed in the early 1990‟s, is not
built-up even up to 20 percent. The vacant land is nearly 16 percent of the total area. It is also
observed that presently some lands surrounding the Hinkal tank and the natural valley is under
agriculture. The commercial development is mainly confined to the Hunsur road side where only
hotel and restaurants followed by vehicle showrooms are located. No planned commercial
development has come up in residential area. Area under Public & Semi Public is less than 3
percent and parks and open spaces below 4 percent indicating imbalanced land use pattern.

Planning Proposals:
1. Commercial development is proposed on all main roads.
2. Area near the tank has been earmarked for parks & open spaces.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 33


Master Plan II - 2031

3. The natural drainage running from 1st main road up to the Bogadi road from north to south is
proposed for open space uses.
4. There is also a need for a commercial complex in the midst of the residential area and the
suitable location is 18m road and 24m road.

3.1.22 Planning District 22

Existing Scenario:
Planning district no 22 covers an area of 314.09ha. This district is mainly residential in character.
Therefore area under traffic and transportation occupies the next position with 24%. The eastern
part of the district has got a mixed land use with Public and Semi-public use and the north east
corner is mainly covered by University and Central government institutions. The only feeder
channel draining rain water into Kukkarahalli Lake is encroached with residential development
and a school near Kudremala
Commercial developments are noticed along the 12m road and Sahukar Channiah Main road
where the width of the road varies from 15m to 28m. A number of scattered commercial
developments have come up along the Bogadi main road. This planning district is served by
educational institutions and health facilities. Organized open spaces are few and forms only 3%,
which is below the planning standards (min 10%). Area under agriculture use is found on the
western side of the planning district. This planning district running east to west has a well-
defined boundary of ring road on the west, intermediate ring road on the east, New Kantharaja
Urs road on the south and Bogadi road on the north. Commercial developments are emerging
very fast on the intermediate ring road and along the New Kantharaja Urs road. The vacant land
in this planning district occupies 10%.

Planning Proposals:
1. The commercial area is proposed on the main roads like New Kantharaja Urs road,
intermediate ring road, Sahukar Channiah Main road and SJCE road.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 34


Master Plan II - 2031

2. The Kukkarahalli feeder channel is blocked by encroachments. It is proposed to shift the


school that exists on the channel land by suitably locating it elsewhere.

3.1.23 Planning District 23

Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 452.85ha. This planning district has got both developed
and undeveloped land. The undeveloped area falls under agriculture, which includes plantation.
The area under residential use accounts for 16percent and these residential areas are well laid out
layouts of Rajarajeshwari Nagar, Bapujinagar, Bank colony, Railway layout and B.E.M.L.
layout. Nearly 50percent of the developed land is vacant. This planning district has an urban
village i.e., Bogadi. Within the developed area nearly 0.63 percent of land is under agriculture
(Plantation) & water bodies. The outer ring road forms the eastern boundary and the Bogadi
main road runs from east to west on the northern side of the planning district. As the area is not
fully built up, the facilities like health & education, commercial have not come up. However
commercial development is observed on either side of Bogadi road and on the Ring road in
Rajajinagar layout. Area under parks and playgrounds has been spelt out in the new layouts.

Planning Proposals:
As this is planned residential district there is little scope to suggest any new land use. Therefore
the planning proposals are limited to the total implementation of the circulation pattern suggested
in RCDP 2011. These are providing direct access from ring road from east to west through a
24m wide road.
1. The 24m road in the Ramachandranagar layout is proposed to link the Bogadi-Gaddige road
in Survey No.294 near the Veterinary hospital.
2. In the new layouts formed by various house building societies, the area earmarked for
commercial, CA sites and parks & open spaces shall be strictly complied with the respective
uses, as per the approved lay-out plan.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 35


Master Plan II - 2031

3. It is proposed to preserve the natural valley running from north to south along with two small
water bodies on the south western part of the planning district. Hence these identified valleys
are reserved for open space uses as proposed in the master plan.

3.1.24 Planning District 24


Existing Scenario:
This Planning District covers an area of 457.93ha of land. The notable feature of this planning
district is the careful thought given to retain the natural valleys and suggesting parks and green
spaces. A major portion of this district comes under Vijayanagara layout and Bharat Atomic
Research Center (B.A.R.C) (RMP employee office layout). As this layout was formed in the
early 90‟s, even after 20 years only 2percent of the land is built up and 58percent of the
developed land is vacant. Area under open spaces is nearly 10percent but less area has been
earmarked for Public & Semi Public uses. The circulation pattern is by and large grid iron,
therefore roads occupies nearly 30percent of the total land use which seems to be more than
required

Planning Proposals:
This planning district is already developed by MUDA. A major portion is yet to be built. The proposals
made in the schemes of the authority, shall be followed. No new proposals are made.
1. Commercial development is recommended along the main roads, as per the D.C.R.

3.1.25 Planning District 25

Existing Scenario:
This planning district covers an area of 519.77 ha and this is a mixed land use district with
residential, public and semi-public use. The major Public & Semi Public use falls under CFTRI
campus and Ramakrishna Vidya Shala. The Mysore City Railway Station is located in this
district, which accounts for Traffic and Transportation use followed by major roads like Vinobha
road, Kalidasa Road, KRS road, and Eshwara Temple road. Area under commercial use accounts
for 6% of the total area. The main commercial uses are regulated market, warehousing, hotels
and Kalyana mantapas. Some small scale industries are also found in this district. Public utility
use like Vani Vilasa Water works and GLSR are located in this planning dist. Intense
commercial activities are found on the Eshwara temple road up to KRS road and all along
Kalidasa road and Vinoba road. A parcel of land under marshy and low lying is found along the
beginning of the Valmiki road and Adhipampa road and this place is drained by natural system
into Kukkarahalli tank.

Planning Proposals:
1. The vacant land currently found on the northern tank bed along Valmiki road and

3.1.29 Planning District 29

Existing Scenario:
This planning district covers an area of 473.74ha. Nearly 20 pc of the land is under agriculture
and water body. The agriculture land use is mainly seen in the northern and western side of the
planning district. This is a mixed land use planning district. Apart from the residential area of 21
pc, 8 pc of the area is under commercial use. This high percentage of commercial use in this
district is due to the location of Indian oil storage, FCI go downs, Depots, TAPCMS and Private
Hospitals. Apart from roads and streets under traffic and transportation use, a major portion
comes under railways and KSRTC bus depot in Bannimantap. Industrial area accounts for 6 pc
and they are mainly small scale industries. Area under public and semipublic is mainly under
educational use.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 41

1. The vacant land in the industrial zone shall be retained under industrial use.
2. Adequate land on the eastern side of railway track is reserved for any possible expansion of
rail transport facility.
3. There is very little scope to suggest any new land use as residential areas have come up,
major land uses like transportation and public and semipublic uses are under the central and
state government and private institutional control. The future residential use with a provision
for commercial land uses like super market and motels are recommended on the ring road.
This area is currently under agricultural land.
4. The B.N. road, from Ring road intersection is proposed for widening to accommodate four
lane traffic, running through Fountain Circle, FTS, KSRTC bus stand, Chathrimara
intersection, Harding circle, Doddakere Tank Bund road up to the ring road intersection in
the south.

3.1.42 Planning District 42

Existing Scenario:
Nanjangud Town is considered as a separate planning district in the Local Planning Area. This
planning district includes the Town Municipal Limits i.e., Nanjangud Town and the industrial
layout developed by the KIADB. The Town Municipal limits include the Chamalapura village
and Devveramanahalli area. The old town is compactly developed between the B.N road and

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 56


Master Plan II - 2031

Chamaraj Nagar road. The Gundlu River and wetlands acts as a barrier on the southeast. The
total area of the planning district is 1779.46hectares.
The existing landuse pattern gives a picture of two main arteries, i.e. the Bazaar road from
Visveswaraya Circle upto the Nanjundeswara temple and the Rastrapathi road from B.N road
upto Nanjundeswara temple, as the two commercial corridors with residential developments on
either side. The Nehru circle (Railway Station area) and the Visveswaraya circle area are the two
important commercial nodes, where commercial developments are concentrated. Compact
residential developments are seen in the old part of the town and in the extension on the east of
B.N road, where as residential spot developments are seen in a scattered manner in the west and
south western outskirts in the private approved layouts. It is observed that these layouts are not
properly laid out and executed although land for formation of roads is provided. Roads which
have been actually laid out and executed are shown in the landuse plan.
As far as the industrial developments are concerned, the major industrial development is
confined to KIADB area, which is adjacent to Sujatha textile industries, which is now sick.
Apart from this, the remaining industrial activity is confined only to the rice mill and cement
concrete building block and other minor industries located in different part of the town.
The main Public & Semi Public uses are the temple and the health and education facilities spread
throughout the town.
The vacant land in the developed residential layouts, both in the private approved layouts and the
MUDA scheme account for 202.72hectares. This is observed to be adequate to meet the
projected population of the town for the plan period.

The following planning proposals are made in the light of the above situation.

Planning Proposals:
1. Kabini River, which forms the northern boundary of the town and the Nanjundeswara temple
(Srikanteswara temple), which is notified as a National protected monuments are the two
important identities of Nanjangud town. This is an important religious and tourist place in the
State. The river banks on both the sides are the flood prone areas during monsoon. Therefore,
there is need for the town to be developed from the religious, heritage, and environment,
(with safeguard measures to meet the flood hazards) considerations. The following proposals
are made to meet these aspects.
a. The entire stretch of the southern bank of the river in the conurbation is proposed to be
declared (zone) as “no development zone” as indicated in the land use plan. It is
suggested that the entire belt be developed as “River Front Open Space Developments”.
Suitable action plan has to be worked out to develop recreational open space in this area
without any constructions.
b. The meter gauge railway track with the Old Rail Car on it, is now an art piece, which is
located in between the B.N road and new railway track. This area is also part of the
protected area on the left bank of the river. This area is suggested to be developed as a
rail museum.
c. The village “Hijjige” is located on the northern bank very close to the temple area.
Presently country made ferry is the means of the transport to this village, apart from the
road communication, which is circuitous. It is suggested to develop a suitable ferry
point near the Bathing Ghats to ferry the people across the river and provide adequate
safe guards.

Master Plan II - 2031

d. The temple area has been declared as protected monument area, by Central Ancient
Monuments Archeological Sites Act. Therefore, this regulation area is proposed to be
covered by “the special developments control regulation” under this Act. Any proposals
of developments in the regulation area are proposed to be examined by the Heritage
Committee under this Act.
2. Adequate land for locating Public & Semi Public uses are made along the Chamaraj Nagar
road. This will meet the requirements for a Fire station, expansion of Government Hospital
and other Public & Semi Public uses, needed at town level.
3. Apart from the two main commercial corridors, that is the main Bazaar road and Rastrapathi
road; commercial developments are suggested along B.N road, Chamaraj Nagar road,
Hullahalli road and Deveramanahalli road.
4. Adequate land is reserved for the expansion of railway yard and KSRTC bus terminal.
5. The Hullahalli irrigation canal passes through the town. It is proposed that the entire stretch
within the town be suitably protected to prevent any mishaps. The land available on either
side of the cannel to be developed as open space buffer.
6. The existing wet agriculture land between B.N road and the railway line, which is being
irrigated, is suggested to be retained as agricultural use only and ultimately be developed as
open space in future, preventing any other urban activity.
7. The improvements to circulation, adopting the various approved residential layouts in the
south western part of the town, are indicated in the land use plan.
8. It is proposed to link Nanjangud-Chamaraj Nagar Road and B.N road in the south-eastern
part of the town crossing Gundlu River and the Mysore-Chamaraj Nagar rail line by a 24 m
wide road, as a bypass road.
9. It is also proposed to link Chamarajanagar Road with B.N Road near K.S.R.T.C Depot by a
grade separated crossing across the rail line.
10. Proposals to improve the circulation by road widening, adapting building line regulations are
suggested, as a separate proposal.

Master Plan II - 2031

4.1 Proposals for Traffic and Transportation

Introduction:
A perusal of the existing road network, as already presented in the data collection and analysis
report may be referred. Based on the findings of the analysis, Proposals of Circulation plan for
the entire Local Planning Area has been worked out and the same is discussed in the following
paragraphs:
4.2 Existing Scenario:
The Mysore-Nanjangud Local Planning area is traversed by the Bangalore-Nilgiri road from
north to south, connecting Mysore City and Nanjangud Town. Mysore city is also connected by
other State Highways namely, Hunsur road, Bannur road, T. Narasipura road and H.D Kote road.
All these roads are of State Highway standards. Mysore is also connected by other important
Radial Roads like Mahadevapura Road, Gaddige road and Suttur road. An existing road
(Madras-Cannanore road), connects B.N road to Mysore- Hunsur road bypassing the Mysore
City Urban Area. This is partially passing through the local planning area in the periphery and is
acting as a peripheral road, in the North and North-west. The B-N road, which passes adjacent to
the existing Airport, is proposed to be diverted to meet the requirements of the expansion of the
present Airport.
Nanjangud Town, which is located in the alignment of B-N road, is also connected to Chamaraj
Nagar via a State highway linking Tamil Nadu. The other important roads are Hullahalli road
and Suttur road.
The local planning area is also being served by the broad gauge links, with Mysore city as a
railway junction. The railway tracks meeting at Mysore are the Bangalore-Mysore link,
Arasikere –Mysore link and Chamaraj Nagar-Mysore link. There are facilities of rail sidings for
RBI complex, the FCI godowns and Indian oil storage. The existing airport facility has been
renovated and is being expanded.
4.3 Urban Transportation System:
The analysis of the existing urban transportation in Mysore reveal that the Mysore city and the
rural parts of the LPA are well served by the State owned city transportation network. The city
Bus transportation network is also extended to the tourist places, such as Srirangapattana, KRS,
Nanjangud and other peri-urban areas and rural parts of LPA. The existing city and mofussil
service was being upgraded under JNNURM.
Mysore city is assuming importance in the region, in view of the all-round development
experienced in the recent past. The upgrading of the rail and road transportation network and the
proposed express highway will ensure further growth of the city and region. It is observed that
there is urgent need to provide for diversion of the regional traffic, which is not meant for the
city. The existing Outer Ring road is already functioning to perform this role on the western side
of the city and to a certain extent on the eastern part also. However, in view of the growth of the
city beyond the Outer Ring road, there is need to think about the peripheral road links, which
will perform this function.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 63


Master Plan II - 2031

The following proposals are made for the Mysore-Nanjangud LPA area
4.4 Mysore City
It is proposed to have a peripheral road all round Mysore city, so that the traffic on the State
highways, which do not intend entering the city, may make use of this road for fast movement
and economy. This road is proposed to be of 45m width and is suitably aligned in the outskirts of
the Local Planning Area, along some of the existing rural road network. (Straightened where
ever necessary), suitably widening to 45mts width. In the north-eastern part and southern part,
suitable existing major district roads (MDR) are available. These links are proposed to be
considered as peripheral links even, though they are just outside the LPA.
On the north-eastern side, the proposed peripheral road links the B-N road (N) to Mysore-Bannur
road via Naguvinahalli, Melapura, Mahadevapura and Chanahalli, starting from B-N road (N)
near Bommuru in Srirangapatna Taluk and joining Bannur road near Harohalli. This link, at
present is an existing major district road. The peripheral road on the eastern side links the Bannur
road near Vajamangala village to B.N road in the south near Kadakola village. Similarly on the
western side the proposed peripheral road links Hunsur road near Elwala to B.N road at
Kadakola. This proposed peripheral link also links the State highways like Manandavadi road
(H.D Kote road), T. Narasipura road and other important roads like Gaddige road and Suttur
road. This proposed peripheral link along with the existing Madras –Cannanore road, which is
also proposed to be widened to 45mts width, forms the peripheral Ring road system connecting
all the important radial roads.
The proposals of the circulation pattern of the approved Master Plan are retained in this revised
master Plan also. The important are detailed below.
The B-N road is proposed to be of 45m width, in the LPA limits except for the stretch within the
thickly built city area, where the proposed width is 30mts. The other State highways (main
arteries) such as Bannur road, T. Narasipura road, H.D Kote road and Hunsur road are proposed
to be of 30mts width, except in the stretches of thickly built area, where proposals of road
widening and building lines are suggested. The stretches between the inner ring road and
intermediate ring road are proposed to be of minimum 24 m, wherever feasible and whereas,
between the intermediate ring road and outer ring road they are proposed to be of 30 m width.
Beyond the outer ring road up to the local planning area boundary the road widths is proposed as
45 m. The other important radial roads that are of 30m width in the outskirts are Mahadevapura
road, K.R.S road and Gaddige road. These roads are also proposed to be of 45mt widths beyond
the outer ring road. It is also proposed to provide service roads along these radial roads in the
process of development.
The proposed Major Road Network outside the existing built up areas of both Mysore and
Nanjangud have been worked out, taking into consideration the various schemes developed by
the Urban Development Authority and also the various developments that have come up in the
private sector. Missing links in the major circulation have been identified between the developed
layouts and approved layouts. Further new links have been suggested to connect the missing
part, which, if connected, would ease traffic in the already congested stretches of the city roads.
The following are the major proposals.
1) A 24 m wide road, in continuation of the new Kantharaja Urs road to link the treasury
employees HBCS layout, which has already been developed. Beyond this approved layout
this road is proposed to be continued up to the LPA boundary.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 64


Master Plan II - 2031

2) A 24 m wide road link from Ramchandra Nagar layout area to the new Kantharaja Urs
road and also to link a missing portion of about 280m up to Gaddige road.
3) To upgrade the existing road link from north eastern end of Shivaji road to the newly
developed MUDA layouts in Devanur area beyond the existing burial ground, with an 18m
road.
4) Proposals to link the Kesare extension and Rajeev Nagar layout by an 18m wide road.
5) Proposals to widen the existing road from the intermediate ring road in the race course area
to Chamundi hill road and link it on to the proposed outer ring road via, the Lalithadripura
road, by a 24m wide road. This link requires a new stretch of 24m wide road, for a length
of about 1km, from Chamundi hill road up to Lalithadripura road (Proposed on the south of
Thavarekatte) and a stretch of 0.50km from Lalithadripura road up to the proposed outer
ring road.
6) There are a number of missing links of 24m wide roads between the developed layouts and
the main arteries in the eastern part of the city between the Bannur road and T. Narasipura
road. These may be taken up on priority.

Access Control:
It is observed that the circulation pattern, which is conceived as a system of ring roads of the city
coupled with the existing arterial (Radial) and other important roads, have to function as through
roads, for uninterrupted fast moving traffic. This system to function efficiently has to have a
systematic access control. It is proposed to achieve this objective, by devising adequate traffic
safe guards in the development control regulations. The following are suggested in the thickly
built area, along the inner and intermediate ring roads, where provisions of service lanes are not
feasible in certain stretches.
i. To provide for medians along the inner and intermediate ring roads, where provision of
service lanes are not feasible to segregate the traffic movements. All inlets and outlets from
the system shall have only left turning traffic and make provisions for U turning
movements across the medians at intervals of not less than 200 m apart or only at
important intersections, whichever is feasible.
ii. Along the intermediate ring road and other important roads of 24 m and above width,
inbuilt provisions for providing service lanes shall be made with suitable access control in
the development control regulations.

Major Road network in outer areas:


The existing road network linking the urban areas with the various rural habitats is also
considered while working out the Major Circulation. The important regional district roads and
the village roads are proposed to be widened, to either 24mts or 18mts, depending on the
requirement of the circulation. It is suggested that suitable deviations of these existing roads shall
be worked out in the limits of gramatanas and bypass links can be developed, treating these rural
habitats as urban villages, in the plan period.

Road widening proposals and building lines stipulated:


Further realizing the need for the widening of some of the important roads, proposals of road
widening have been made and building line have also been proposed for all important roads. A
comprehensive list of proposals of road widening and building lines is given in table 4-1.

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 65


Master Plan II - 2031

4.5 Nanjangud Town


In Nanjangud Town, the B-N road is proposed to be of 30m width from Hullahalli channel up to
the conurbation boundary in the south. The rest of the stretches of B-N road is proposed to be of
45m width. It is proposed to link the B.N. Road with Chamarajanagar road across the railway
line, at two places, one near the KSRTC Depot and in the south-eastern part of the town. The
other important roads in the Town, namely Chamaraj Nagar road and Hullahalli road are
proposed to be of 30m and 24m respectively.

Road network at local levels:


The detailed proposals of road network, outside the existing developed area is limited to 18 m.
And the lower level circulation is not worked out. However it is proposed to adopt a flexible
policy to consider the detailed road network in the urban system analogous to a river system.
Every activity area in the urban system contributes traffic flow into access roads of prescribed
width, as per the DCR, which in turn flow into collector roads. Such collector roads empty into
the major roads of the neighborhood. This concept is considered to be healthy and is proposed to
be adopted to achieve a healthy pattern of circulation. The sub division regulations, prescribed in
the DCR of Master Plan gives guidelines, with regard to various standards of road widths and
space standards for various uses ,which is proposed to be adopted for development, while
working out neighborhood planning exercise, at local levels.

4.6 Urban Transportation System


The analysis of the urban transportation system in Mysore local planning area reveals that in
Mysore city, as already stated, is well served by a bus transportation system managed by the
State Road Transportation Corporation. The existing infrastructure is being upgraded under
the JnNURM program. Four new terminals are being developed at Kuvempunagar, Sathagalli,
R.S Naidu Nagar and Yelawala, in addition to the existing city bus stand and the moffusal bus
terminal. Necessary land for locating a new bus terminal in Bogadi road is made near K.
Hemmanahalli.
The proposed district centers along the Outer Ring road and at the intersection of major road
network (shown in the landuse plan), may also provide local bus terminal facilities to cater to
the new residential areas.
It is observed, that in the plan period, the existing bus transport system is adequate to meet the
mass transportation requirement up to 2021.The details of bus transportation system
specifying the routes etc., could be worked out by an action plan by the concerned authority
using the proposed road network and the new proposed Bus terminal facilities. Improvement
of the efficiency of the Bus transport system, judicial planning of the various Bus routes and
increase of the frequency of the bus services, may encourage the individual vehicle owners to
take to the mass transport system and thereby reduce congestion in the central areas.
As already stated above, the existing transportation system is adequate to cater to the
immediate needs of the city. However, it is felt necessary to anticipate, if not in this plan
period or a couple of plan periods, an RTS for Mysore city may become a reality in future. It
is therefore necessary to at least identify the probable Monorail Corridor in the present
network itself and provide for any contingency measures.
In the existing road network we have wide roads of 24mts (Proposed to be widened to 30mt),
which may be identified as future Monorail corridor. An attempt is made here to identify this
corridor. However, a detailed study, as to the feasibility etc., may be taken up in this regard.

4.7 Future Mono Rail Corridor


A future mono rail system may connect the Mysore city railway station near CFTRI to the
Outer Ring road near Metagally and also link Hunsur road, Bogadi-Gaddige road, H.D Kote
road, B-N road (south), Bannur road, Mahadevapura road, proposed Mysore -Bangalore
express high way and B-N road (north), along the outer ring road. The rail may also link the
Airport area in the south and the industrial areas in Hunsur road and KRS road up to the
proposed peripheral road (MC road). A link from Ring road towards the University of Mysore
may run up to Mysore-Chamaraja Nagar railway line or/and from Outer Ring road to

Mysore Urban Development Authority Page 81


Master Plan II - 2031

Radhakrishna avenue along Vishwamanva double road, towards university area in the west
and from Outer Ring road up to Teresian College in the east. Similarly the Hunsur road link
may be originated from a point closer to the intermediate ring road near premier studio
building. It is necessary to properly integrate this corridor with the Bus transportation system.
Adequate land to facilitate location of rail station and bus transportation local terminals are
suggested at the important junctions along the ring road such as KRS Road, Hunsur Road,
Bogadi Road, R.T..Nagar Junction, HD Kote road, near Paduvana Road in Vishwamanava
Double Road, Kukkarahalli Tank (East bank) B.N.Road Junction (south and north), Bannur
Road, Mahadevapura Road, Yelawala and B.N.Road near airport..
The proposed district centers conceived in the new areas may also be planned to provide for
the facilities for Bus transportation and parking areas.

4.8 Parking Areas


Vehicle parking in different locations of the city, depending on the need is one of the major
urban issues that have to be catered. In the core area of Mysore city the availability of suitable
land for parking is limited. The existing parking facilities available in the city have been
discussed in the report of the data study analysis (Chapter 5.5 volume I). These are in addition
to the on street parking areas identified by the City Traffic Police. To meet the future
requirement, the City Corporation has taken up the renovation of the Rangacharlu Memorial
Hall (Town Hall) which provides for basement parking facility under JNNURM scheme.
The KR circle area, which is the heart of the CBD, has acute parking problems. In this area all
possible potential proposals of parking needs to be examined. The recently renovated bus
stand under the JNNURM program has utilized the entire area for city transport services only.
There is still scope for exploiting this area for providing public parking by suitably designing
the entire bus stand area into parking lots over an upper tier by suitably providing approach
ramps from the New Sayyaji Rao road and the Albert victor road. Suitable designs have to be
worked out to meet the heritage requirements in view of the location of this area in special
heritage control zone. The design shall be got approved by the special heritage committee
under development control regulations as these proposals are within the heritage control area.
Therefore, for further augmentation of the parking need, the following proposals of parking
areas are proposed in the CBD area (PD No.1 & 11) in the Master Plan. Suitable designs
needs to be worked out and action plans prepared. The design shall be got approved by the
special heritage committee under development control regulations as these proposals are
within the heritage control area.
An upper tier of parking lots over the existing city bus stand by suitably designing the parking
area keeping in view the heritage requirements and obtaining clearance from the special

Master Plan II - 2031

heritage committee constituted under the development control regulations of this plan.as
stated above.
A MLCP is proposed in Irwin road in the vacant land available in Wellington Lodge Premises
with due consideration of Heritage aspect in view of the fact that the Wellington lodge is a
notified monument and necessary concurrence from the concerned department be obtained
and the design shall get approved by the special heritage committee under development
control regulations as these proposals are within the heritage control area.
A MLCP is proposed in B-N road opposite to the KSRTC bus stand adjacent to the taxi stand.
A Two Level and Three Level basement parking is proposed along Lokaranjan Mahal road
and B-N road in Doddakere Maidan, with access from the tank bed and. the design shall get
approved by the special heritage committee under development control regulations as these
proposals are within the heritage control area.
A MLCP is proposed in the vacant land in the premises of the Nanjaraja Bahaddhur Choultry
and. the design shall get approved by the special heritage committee under development
control regulations as these proposals are within the heritage control area.
A Two level car parking is proposed in Dhanvantri road taking advantage of the dip of the JK
ground premises.
A MLCP is proposed in the vacant land between JLB road and the railway property near the
Railway station. This will be in addition to a suggestion that the Railway Authorities can also
work out for upgrading and developing the existing parking area in front of the city Railway
station. It is suggested that a suitable design for a MLCP matching the architectural facade of
the city railway frontage and the Railway Divisional level offices can be implemented to
augment the parking requirement.
The Old Exhibition Buildings (Medical College premises) is also suggested for providing a
MLCP facility.
Proposal for a basement parking is suggested in Devaraja Market (This may be part of the
proposed remodeling of the city market). The design shall get approved by the special
heritage committee under development control regulations as these proposals are within the
heritage control area.
Proposals for basement parking are also suggested in VaniVilasa Market and Mandi Mohalla
Market (This may be part of the proposed remodeling of these markets). The design shall get
approved by the special heritage committee under development control regulations as these
proposals are within the heritage control area.

Master Plan II - 2031

4.9 Pedestrian subways, Flyovers, Geometric designs of intersections, etc


Some of the proposals of the approved comprehensive development plan like the subways in
Sayyaji Rao road near Devaraja market are already completed. The proposed road under
bridge across Mysore-Chamarajanagar railway line along Radha Krishna avenue is about to
take off.
Detailed study for the provision of the subways in KR circle and Chamaraj circle have to be
taken up in view of the necessity, keeping in view, the Heritage and beauty aspects the
designs have to be worked out in consultation with the Special Heritage Committee.
The intermediate ring road, which crosses Mysore-Bangalore and Mysore- Arasikere railway
lines in Yadavagiri, needs a fly over bridge for smooth flow of traffic. Detailed proposals
have to be worked out.
Geometric designs of the Important Junctions and channelization of traffic: Considering
the heritage characteristics of the city, provision is made in the DCR for taking measures to
maintain and enhance the beauty of the city at Important locations, such as circles/intersection
and junctions, which have been have been identified in chapter 11 of DCR. It is proposed to
take up action plans on priority, to work out geometric designs of these circles, channelization
of roads at intersection to achieve smooth traffic flow, keeping in view the heritage and
beautification aspects at the respective locations.

Master Plan II - 2031

5 Chapter 5
5.1 Phasing of Development
The revised Master plan for the Mysore-Nanjangud local planning area is worked out for the
plan period up to 2031.The urban Development authority is the main developing agency in
the local planning area and is also the planning authority to regulate the developments in the
local planning area, as required under the K.T.C.P Act. The authority also permits the private
developing agencies to participate in development under the KUDA Act.
The phasing of development by the urban development Authority in the LPA is proposed to
suit the programmes of the urban development authority along with the private developments
within the conurbation area. It may tentatively be phased in Mysore conurbation area, by
tackling the ongoing schemes of the authority for their completion and the schemes of the
authority proposed to be taken up immediately for Land acquisition and development, to
cover a population of 13.80 lakhs in the first phase up to 2016. These schemes along with the
private developments contiguous to existing developments will constitute the first phase.
In the first phase ,it is also proposed to take up the identified missing links in the circulation
network within the developed area and also the links, which are proposed in the plan to ease
the through traffic and reduce the traffic congestion within the city, are to be taken up. The
following important links are proposed to be taken up in the first phase.
1) The outer ring road linking Bannur road to Bangalore-Nilgiri road, in the south east and
south of Chamundi hill. (This link will complete the outer ring road of Mysore; thereby
help the traffic to bypass the central city area from north and east)
2) The proposed link of about one kilometer length (24mtr road), linking Chamundi hill
road to the proposed outer ring road via Lalithadripura road may be taken up on priority.
This, once completed will establish link from eastern side i.e., Bannur and T. Narasipura
side to the city without entering the Lalith Mahal road or Nazarabad road, which are
entrances to the heart of the city. Simultaneously, the existing village road from T.
Narasipura road to Lalithadripura road which is proposed as a 24mts wide road may be
taken up for improvement immediately, as it would cater to divert the traffic from T.
Narasipura road to this new road link and on to Bangalore –Nilgiri road.
3) The missing link between north eastern end of Shivaji road and Devanur extension and
missing link between Kesare extension and Devanur layout by upgrading the existing
links.
4) Missing links identified between developed schemes of MUDA and developed private
layouts.
In the second phase, the land acquisition and development by the urban development
authority and the private layouts may be taken- up, upto the conurbation boundary.
In the case of Nanjangud town, the urban development authority has already completed a
scheme and has no fresh schemes on hand. Here the available developed land is likely to
cater to the immediate needs. The authority may take up any new scheme depending on
the demand in the second phase.

6.1 Financial Implications
The financial aspects of the implementation of the master plan include working out the total
cost of the development of urban and rural areas in the local planning area. Various
government agencies, which have jurisdiction in the local planning area, the various private
organizations and individuals, are involved in the process. Therefore, only an outline of the
cost of development in the conurbation limits only of Mysore and Nanjangud are worked out
here under the following heads.
1) Land acquisition and development of the land proposed for development within the
conurbations of Mysore city and Nanjangud town.
2) Land acquisition cost of proposed areas under
a) Public and semipublic use and public utility areas.
b) Parks play grounds and other open spaces.
c) Land proposed for transportation uses.
3) Approximate cost of land acquisition and development of the proposed major circulation
in the local planning area.
4) Cost of water supply augmentation works under taken under JnNURM scheme.
5) Cost of UGD up gradation in Mysore and Nanjangud.
For working out the cost of development, a conurbation area of 279.82 sq.km and 17.79
sq.km for Mysore city and Nanjangud respectively is considered. It is assumed that the cost of
the land is 25lakhs per acre and an equal amount for land development, the total cost of the
land acquisition and development would be Rs 1.25 crores per Ha.
No Major uses of development Area in Ha Cost in Rs Crore
