Partner:
Activating Poornapragna Park Corridor
Site context
A 100-metre buffer zone beneath a high-tension line adjacent to Poornapragna Park has been developed into a park. However, a 200-metre stretch south of the park, across 29th Main Road, remains barricaded and inactive, creating a physical and visual barrier within the neighbourhood. Integrating these green spaces into a continuous and safe corridor can significantly enhance neighbourhood vitality.
Issues
● The deserted and impermeable buffer stretch feels unsafe, especially after dark ● Heavy BMTC bus traffic from the adjacent depot and absence of pedestrian paths make movement difficult
Priority Interventions
● Introduce walking and cycling paths with adequate street lighting along the green buffer ● Create openings in the buffer to improve neighbourhood connectivity ● Integrate social spaces with seating for rest and community interaction ● Add pedestrian safety infrastructure at the junction connecting the proposed 200-metre park extension with Poornapragna Park
