REGENERATION OF WATERFRONT DEVELOPMENT IN TIRUR
INTRODUCTION
Development of a waterfront area with an aim of connecting and integrating the city
with water. Waterfronts are settlements or civilizations or commercial developments
that come up along the water body. Waterfronts are dynamic and unique places where
the land and water meet. It is the interface of the aquatic and the terrestrial. A
waterfront zone is where interaction happens between the urban and the water. These
waterfronts have the potential to become the cultural and heritage hubs of the city that
lie on the banks or shores of waterfront as well as attract people from the city and
tourists
AIM.
To explore the importance of water front development for a cityscape : a case
study on Tirur .
OBJECTIVES
SCOPE
LIMITATION
Duration of research time
Less awareness to people about the development.
RELEVANCE OF STUDY
The study will serve as change that can help design the riverfont development
accordingly
METHEDOLOGY.
A row of houses, or the part of a town, that is next to a river. The land or property
alongside a river. A riverfront is a region along a river; often in larger cities that
border a river, the riverfront will be lined with marinas, docks, parks, trees, or minor
attractions. Waterfront development refers to any development in front of water and a
water body; a river, lake, ocean, bay, creek or canal. In the development area,
considered that a waterfront development may not necessarily need to be directly
fronting water but may only need to look attached to the water. A more detailed
defnition described the waterfront as the interface point where land and water meet,
between approximately 200 to 300 meters from the water line and 1 to 2 km to the
land site and also takes in land within 20 minutes walking distance.Today many river
fronts are a staple of modernism and city beautification. The term riverfront is
described as "the land or property along a river, the section of a city or town along a
river". The redeveloped waterfront acts as a driver for the re-launch of the entire
economy of a city, often re-locating it in an international context. For this reason,
many cities, even of a small and medium size, are adopting the recovery of their
border or of their former port areas in light of economic benefits and of a higher
quality of life. In this regard, it becomes necessary to learn from others. The design of
a successful riverfront development involves many steps. This dissertation present
what is involved in the formation of a River walk, what makes people use and visit
the site, and how it adds comfort to a city.

Principles for a Sustainable Development of Urban Waterfront
Area
Secure the quality of water and the environment: Clean water and
environment are the primary requirements of a waterfront.
One of the most innovative projects towards urban regeneration in the world to make
the city liveable & sustainable
Introduction:
Sabarmati is one of the most iconic river in India. The river situated in
Ahmadabad, Gujarat and refereed as a lifeline of the city. Due to rise of
urbanization river fell into neglect. This gave rise to pollution into the
river, slum encroachment on the river banks.
Sabarmati riverfront development project is great example of riverfront in
India. This project is an initiative by Ahmadabad Municipal Corporation
to develop the Sabarmati riverfront in the city. This project began as an
urban renewal project to enhance the habitat condition and spatial
structure of the river and adjoining area,
Aim of this project is to transform historic character of Ahmadabad yet
neglected river into a vibrant focus for the city of Ahmadabad.
Issues:
Pollution of river
Affected Sunday market on river bank
Lack of open spaces
Slum encroachment
Flooding
Dumping garbage into river
Strom water drain and nalaseject untreated sewage into the river
Inaccessible riverfront

RIVER HYDRAULICS
The objective of the river hydraulic study was to ensure for:
• River width in such a way that, expected High Flood Level (HFL) in the
river in its natural condition, does not significantly increase after it is
constricted and trained.
• Height of Retaining walls and Embankment in relevance to HFL
• The Depth of Diaphragm wall to protect scouring of the Riverbed
• Stability of existing bridges by protecting piers against increased velocity
as per the design 1--1FL
Sewerage Network
To stop flow of sewage and to keep the river clean
East Bank: 15
West Bank: 12.3
Total work:
Road Network
East Bank:
Connection with the fort wall city having many markets in central
Ahmedabad and biggest city bus terminus i.e., Lal Darwaja etc.
West Bank:
This is also four lane road of9.25 km length parallel to the major
North - South Ashram Road on this side.
This will help to manage traffic of commercial development of West
Ahmedabad and proposed Central Business District through 11
approaches.

Gadavari river divides the city into part north and south. North riverfront
crowded with gurudwaras and ghat. South riverfront is newer and sparser
development. Therefore south riverfront is comparatively undeveloped
which offers designer a great opportunity to design riverfront at south
side of nanded. This project is initiative of Nanded Waghala Municipal
Corporation for stretch 5km.
