Priority Interventions

The proposed interventions focus on revitalizing the underpass through several key upgrades. 

  • To improve accessibility, the entrances will be redesigned and cleared of vendor encroachments, with increased overhangs added to provide better shade. 

  • Wayfinding will be improved on both sides to guide users more efficiently, and the internal infrastructure will undergo rigorous maintenance, including roof repairs and solar lighting installation.

  • Security will be prioritised through the placement of safety alarms within the underpass and more proactive management of nighttime usage to ensure a safe environment for all commuters around the clock.

Site context

The underpass links the Majestic Bus stop and metro station to 1st Cross Road, which provides access to the market and several lodges commonly used by short-term visitors.

Issues

The underpass contains an active market area that floods during the rainy season and requires roof repairs.
