Economic Infrastructure
s i t y
v e r
For a city to attract investments and to create the n i
a l U appropriate
c
economic infrastructure for employment opportunities, it has to first
g
identify its core competence, comparative
o i advantages and
h n
that is done, the gaps in required

Establishing Incubators and Creations of Jobs, Creation of a start-
c
up eco-system requires an incubator being set up and spreading
g i
the culture of innovative thinking and finding
o
solutions to everyday
o l
problems through technological intervention.
c h n
T e
It requires specific expertise and needs to be done with a long-term
r a t
view towards making the process sustainable. Each city will house an
a
incubator each and 1000 start-ups per incubator shall create at
yearu
j
least 1000 jobs per year. This will result in 1 million jobs created per
G and 10 million jobs in 10 years across these 100 cities through
the incubators

n i
a l U
By Institutional infrastructure it refers to the activities that relate to
c
the planning and management systems in a city. The new
technology has provided a new dimension
o g i to this system making it
o l
efficient, accountable and transparent.
c h n
T e
It includes the participatory systems of governance, e-governance,
opportunitiesafor
r t
inclusive governance, the sense of safety and security and the
a
creativity.

Governance structures do not have adequate people participation. People do
U
not get the feel of ownership of city. Therefore, there is a requirement of
involvement of citizens in decision-making processes.
c a l
og i
l
Procedures are cumbersome and citizens often find it difficult to secure public
o
services they seek. Further, responsibilities for different services are fragmented
h n
across multiple institutions, making the situation even more complex for any
c
Te
citizen.
ra t
Besides, many of these institutions report to different departments of the state
j a
government and local bodies have little influence on them. For example, even
u
within the transport system, metro rail, buses, roads, parking, traffic lights, street
G
lights, etc. are dealt with by different institutions.

Access to water supply is important for all the urban residents

rates high in

Dual water supply systems that serve the needs of drinking
l U
water and other needs would help in recycling water and
a
i c
conserving it. Adoption of new methods especially smart
l og
metering for reducing loss and energy consumption in water
o
n
networks needs to be ensured.
c h
Te
This is possible by installing sensors in the supply system that
t
ra
measure water consumption, water levels, and water flow rates on
j a
a real time basis. These models will help in not only identifying
u
G
and localize leaks, it would also assist to optimize energy
consumption in the network.

Special attention is required for Solid waste Management, where:
a l U
c
1. Segregation of recyclable and non-recyclable waste as well as wet and
og i
dry waste at the source so that there can be 100% recycling of solid waste;
o l
n
2. Appropriate technology should be adopted for treatment of waste at
c
decentralized locations;
h
t Te
3. Put in place an effective collection and disposal system;
j a ra
4. Encourage use of products based on recycling of solid waste especially –
G u
power, compost, building material (based on cycling of debris & construction
materials).

Priority is also given to Storm water Drainage in order to adopt a storm water
l U
management approach. This would include preserving and maintaining the
a
i c
natural hydrological cycle, groundwater recharge, natural drainage system, etc.
og
Provisions for storm water to feed lakes and water bodies would enable
recycling of the storm water.
o l
c h n
Smart cities needs to have universal access to electricity 24x7. This may not be
Te
possible with the existing supply and distribution system. The cities should,
ra t
therefore, shift towards smart metering at the household level and the
a
establishment of a smart grid and its integration with the renewable sources to
u j
meet the demand such as solar and wind energy.

A 100 Mbps internet backbone coupled with 100% coverage of the area by
l U
cell phone towers and a high level of telephone penetration will be essential in
a
i c
a Smart City as most services will have to be offered online.
o l og
Urban Development, in terms of development control regulations and many
n
policies governing urban areas are old and need to be reviewed in view of
c h
the changing needs of the city. The building bylaws are archaic and the
Te
provisions like parking space requirements and building heights etc. provided,
ra t
do not meet the demand for the present day. Land in cities is at a premium and
a
the existing FARs does not permit development of high rises, which results in
u j
high cost of housing. To ensure availability of affordable housing for every
G
citizen, the existing FARs and bye-laws needs immediate revision.

Social infrastructure relate to those components that work towards developing
the human and social capital
c a l
og i
Education - The city should have quality educational facilities, both for schools
o l
and higher education in every neighborhood. This can be achieved with e-
h
education and digital content.
c n
Te
Healthcare - High quality healthcare facilities are important factors in making
ra t
a city liveable and attractive for people and businesses. This would necessitate
j a
creation of Electronic Health Record for every resident and adoption of
u
telemedicine in every neighborhood.

Theatres, concert calls, auditoriums, cultural centres, open spaces and plazas

allow opportunities for recreation, so important for healthy and happy living.

Good sports facilities – Children park, stadium, swimming pools, neighborhood

sports complex, golf courses.
