Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan is perceived as a tool to translate the broader goals that are outlined in the Structure Plan for Sarpang into a viable urban setting. It facilitates the implementation of specific objectives proposed in the Sarpang Structure Plan. These objectives include the accommodation of increased population over the coming decades, the distribution of population density in a sustainable way, the realization of an efficient public transit system, and the appropriate patterning of infrastructure services. It also illustrates the implementation of Precinct Sanctions within local area and at the individual plot level. The plan addresses local issues such as the provision of community amenities within a comfortable walking distance and the restructuring of land plots into a rational urban system.

1.1 A IMS AND O BJECTIVES

The Shechangthang Local Area Plan is prepared with an overall aim to facilitate the implementation of Structure Plan proposals at the local level.

The plan attempts to achieve the following broad objectives:

a. Facilitate a pattern of development, which can accommodate the area’s share of projected population;

b. Facilitate provision of efficient infrastructure in a planned and sustainable manner protecting the existing scenic beauty and topography;

c. Provide for the required amenities within comfortable walking distance;

d. Effectively link the Urban Hub of the city to other nodes in an efficient manner;

e. Rationalize the land subdivision in a manner, which allows the efficient introduction of urban infrastructure and services;

f. Assure that all plots are facilitated through a road network, which provides access; and

g. Protect the environment and greenery.

1.2 VISION AND A PPROACH

Within the entire framework of the Structure Plan, Shechangthang stands out as a local area accommodating concentrated city level commercial development and public facilities which will cater to all the north-western areas of Sarpang. Apart from this, the focus of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan is to promote environmentally sensitive urban development, which facilitates high-medium and low-density population concentrations required for the city

6

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

to accommodate growth over the next quarter century. An estimated population of about 11,323 people will have to be housed in Sarpang City over the coming twenty-five years.

Population accommodation is one of the main concerns in Shechangthang. The area can support a population of about 2,600 dwelling units. The concept here is to project the future population growth of the city and then to accommodate that population within the city core, proposed new Urban Hub and to densify and infill the new Urban Villages identified in the Structure Plan, of which Shechangthang is one.

A major concern of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan is to configure plot sizes suitable for apartments and row houses in and around the proposed Urban Hub. These plots will be provided with adequate infrastructure services and access to achieve relatively medium and high-density population. It is also proposed that private developers, in collaboration with landowners having land in and around the proposed Urban Hub, develop large-scale housing schemes at Shechangthang, in appropriate phases. Financial institutions can facilitate both the “developers” with short-term loans during the implementation, and households in the process of purchasing these dwellings, thus accelerating the supply of affordable housing. This approach, replicated across the city, can rationalize the housing market in Sarpang by providing the consumers with a variety of choices. This approach is envisaged to be an important tool towards resolving the shortage of affordable housing. It will also be an incentive to the fledging private sector in the country.

High-density population concentrations have positive implications on the provision of services. The current trend of service provision with almost no transfer of capital costs to the consumers is not sustainable over the long run. At the same time, scattered low-density population does not allow a self-financing and cost effective infrastructure system to emerge. These services require a minimum threshold of population density to pay their own way. Otherwise, the far-flung civil works raise civic capital investments far beyond the public’s “ability-to-pay”, leading to a non-sustainable urban system. To viably operate a public transit system, for example, with a trip frequency of ten minutes, or to ensure a quality water supply, or an efficient sewerage management system, fairly high population densities are required. The high-density population concentrations proposed in the Shechangthang Local Area Plan ensure provision of infrastructure services, which can be established and run in a sustainable manner. At the same time, the plan promotes a mix of plots, accommodating bungalows, cottages and row houses. Thus, the present life style of Shechangthang can be sustained and enhanced. The new population will join with the existing population in paying for modern and enjoyable services, utilities and amenities.

By using “land pooling” it will be possible to implement the Shechangthang Local Area Plan. All possible measures have been taken to avoid land acquisition. The roads and public open space system will be rationalized. There are also a series of public spaces planned. These spaces can become evening hangouts for local people and also for people in other parts of the city. Along

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

with the public amenities and services, provision will also be made for the city level amenities that would be housed in the Urban Hub.

An important ingredient of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan is the establishment of an Urban Hub, which will house a range of services and amenities. An Urban Hub would be a city level business center with the following provisions:

• Office spaces

• ATMs and other Banking facilities

• Whole sale and retail commercial activities along with the convenience shops

• Entertainment facilities - cinema halls, bowling alleys, restaurants and hotels, bars, discos, etc.

• Basic health unit

• Crèche

• Library

• Bus station with buses leaving every ten minutes, during peak hours to the urban core and other nodes and hubs in the city.

• Postal facility

• Police Station

• Fire station

• Taxi stand

• Larger auto repair workshops

This Urban Hub will also serve the already developed government offices and institutions, and the newly developing ones. It will bring an enhanced quality of life to the people of the local area and for those who would be commuting daily to this business center from various parts of the town. It will free people from dependence on automobiles, will reduce the pressure on the City Core for fulfilling day to day needs of the people residing in peripheral areas, and create a convivial urban setting, as envisioned in the Intelligent Urbanism theory, which underlines the Structure Plan. Provision of this multi-nucleated Urban Hub would also achieve the following three objectives of:

a. Achieving an even distribution of traffic

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

b. Preventing a helter-skelter spread of the higher order commercial activities creating ‘Developmental Diseconomies’

c. Taking pressure off of the Urban Core.

1.3 PEOPLE’ S P ARTICIPATION IN THE P LAN F ORMULATION:

1.3.1 WHAT IS A LOCAL AREA PLAN?

Each local area plan is conceived as an Urban Village identified in the Structure Plan. These are areas bound by major roads, streams, the Sarpang Chhu, the forest line, and other natural boundaries. Within these defined areas, a high-density zone of walk-up apartments, with an Urban Hub or Urban Village Square in the centre, is identified. This hub or village square is usually near the Urban Corridor, or a major road, so that the local area citizens can be served by express buses to the City Core, Urban Hub and other nodes. The idea is to provide high density, compact, walk-able communities, surrounded by medium-density residential plots, which in turn are surrounded by low-density garden bungalows, usually with houses nestled into orchards, or privately developed green areas. This density pattern is also governed by topographical and other environmental constrains. The central Urban Hub contains Urban Village level, and City level, amenities like convenience shops, wholesale and retail shops, taxi stand, news and telephone kiosks, police station, a fire station, a post office, a clinic, a crèche for working mothers, a library, a toddler’s park, vegetable market, pub, ATM’s and other banking facilities, office spaces, parking, larger auto repair workshops and a bus station. The roads are laid out in a hierarchy so that all plots are well served. The right-of-ways are also used for sidewalks, water supply networks, sewerage drains, storm water drainage, street lighting and solid waste collection.

1.3.2 LAND POOLING

Land pooling is a method of rationally planning an area in which all the local citizens are faced with the problem of no proper services, no clearly laid out roads, many plots with no access at all, and no potential for further development. In such a situation, no civic amenities like parks, solid waste collection bins, or basic health services are possible. Without a rational street network, fire engines and ambulances can never reach their emergency destination sites. Without a street network, no water supply network, storm water drainage, communication cables, or street lighting is possible. In land pooling all of the land is brought into one “pool”. A rational road layout, with all of the services required is planned. These roads, amenities and services may take up to thirty percent of the land. To “create” this land, the percentage of land needed for these common facilities is deducted from each plot. Now the original plots which were of odd shapes, are reconstituted into rectangular shapes. These new plots, which are proportionately smaller than the original land, are, however urban plots! Their value immediately increases! Over the period of time as the area is upgraded with services and roads, the value increases even more.

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

1.3.3 THE PLANNING PROCESS

In the planning process, each plot is measured through a Total Station survey, identifying all structures on it. It is correlated with the city land records so that the owners know exactly where and how much land they own. Then it is located in an Urban Precinct (or functional area under the Structure Plan zoning), which determines the allowable plot coverage, setbacks, building height, etc. Structures cannot be constructed in sensitive environmental zones (forests, steep orchard lands, marshlands, migrant bird habitats, etc.).

Thus, at the beginning of the planning process, each participant knows what their “starting condition is.” Next a professional planning team studies the area within the concerned urban villages, locating natural features, adjusting Urban Precinct zones from the Structure Plan to suit local conditions, noting water, electrical and other services, resources and existing roads. The number and sizes of the existing plots are also studied.

1.3.4 PARTICIPATION

From the above a Concept Plan is generated, showing the proposed green areas, Urban Hub or Village Square, low-density and high-density residential areas, road network and urban facilities. At a public meeting to which all the landowners are invited, the entire scheme is explained. The people are given written “briefs” with a map, showing their plot and stating their “starting condition,” and future “planned condition.” Through a series of such meetings, where suggestions and complaints are heard, the plan evolves.

To further the interaction a small committee of four or

10

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Introduction

five representatives is elected. These representatives maintain contact with the professional planners. Furthermore, the planning team keeps an “open house” every day. Any household from the local area may drop in and discuss their concern.

1.3.5 INTEGRATION OF THE LOCAL AREA PLAN WITH THE STRUCTURE PLAN

There is a link between the Structure Plan and the Local Area Plans of Urban Villages. The Structure Plan includes the non-negotiable elements and components of land utilization, which rule over all local area plans. These non-negotiable elements and components include; the sanctity of forest areas, river and stream set-backs, steep slopes likely to erode, habitats of rare flora and fauna, and other protected environmental areas. These must be conserved in the local area plans. Next the Urban Corridor right-of-way, access points on to the corridor side, service lanes, and other major roads are “givens” in the local area plans. Each Urban Village requires a central service node and high-density housing around it to accommodate future population. The people of every local area must be aware of all the parameters and concerns which are formative in the plan making. Wherever they are affected, they must know why. There are costs, but there are also benefits. Both must be explained in detail.

1.3.6 POPULATION AND ECONOMIC VIABILITY

Local area plans are for the future, and not only for today. There must be adequate density in each Urban Village so that the households can share the costs of services and facilities. Without an Urban Hub or Urban Village Square and high-density housing, the Urban Village will not have enough population to share the costs, and the per-household costs will go beyond the ability to pay. This usually occurs in low-density, higher income group areas where bungalows and cottages are spread over large, difficult to service areas. In such cases the rest of the city dwellers wind up subsidizing the costs of the low-density dwellers. To balance this inequity, fewer services are provided to low-density residents. They have to provide their own roads, water supply lines, sewer lines, electric lines, telephone lines, etc.

Finally, the Structure Plan is for the coming generations. Each Urban Village will have to house its “fair share” of people as calculated by projecting the future population, estimating the total potential buildable area in the city, and also in the local area, and correlating the percentage share of population, the local area plans must house.

2.0 EXISTING PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT

2.1 EXTENT AND B OUNDARIES OF SHECHANGTHANG L OCAL A REA P LAN

The Shechangthang Local Area Plan covers an area of 90.22 hectares, which lies to the south- west of Sarpang Chhu. The southern boundary is defined by a pathway, the northern by Sarpang Chhu and the western boundary by the Sarpang-Damphu highway. The area under the Shechangthang Local Area Plan was previously under Hilley Gewog, before forming a part of the Sarpang Municipal Corporation boundary.

Most of the area under the Local Area Plan slopes eastwards towards the Sarpang Chhu. But the topography is such that the entire project area falls under the developable zone with gentle slopes. Shechangthang has an existing access from the Sarpang-Damphu highway and is connected with the rest of the municipal area with a bridge across the Sarpang Chhu. Most of the internal areas of the Urban Village are currently served with non-asphalted roads. And foot trails.

2.2 EXISTING L AND U SE CHARACTERISTICS

Within the Shechangthang local area, one may observe a distinct land use pattern in different pockets. Based on the predominant land uses, the Shechangthang local area can be sub- divided into:

• Residential Areas: The Shechangthang Urban Village has a sparse residential development. Most of the buildings are scattered while the only concentration is seen along the Sarpang- Damphu highway. Most of the houses are in the form of temporary structures are surrounded with agricultural fields.

• Forest Areas: A large cover of natural vegetation can be noticed on the steeply sloping western belt below the Sarpang-Damphu highway.

• Vacant Area: Almost 41.33% of the project area is vacant with no pre-dominant use.

12

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Existing Physical Development

• River Bed: Few of the plots along the Sarpang Chhu are located in the river bed. This has occurred due to a few flash floods in the past that has eroded the entire belt along the river bed. The river bed forms almost 9.7% of the project area.

• Commercial Use: The commercial development, especially in the form of temporary hutments, is found along the Sarpang-Damphu highway. These consist of small grocery shops that serve the day to day need of the residents.

• Recreational Use: An informal football field below the Sarpang-Damphu highway is the only means of recreation to the local residents.

2.3 EXISTING H OUSING AND P OPULATION DENSITY PATTERN

The existing population of Shechangthang is estimated to be in the range of 100-125 persons. The population figures were provided by the Sarpang Dzongkhag officials. A few of the houses have informal shops, like general stores and bars, which serve the existing sparse population of the entire area. Thus, the gross density of the area is less than 25 persons per hectare.

Most of the residential structures are temporary in nature with an individual outdoor toilet and water storage tank.

The relatively older houses are all multi-family dwelling units. The majority of people residing in this area have self-owned accommodations and their work places are at Sarpang Bazaar and Sarpang Tar.

2.4 G ENERAL S TATUS

2.4.1 LAND OWNERSHIP PATTERN

Almost all the plots in Shechangthang are privately owned. The only plots with government ownership are the existing football field, the Food Corporation of Bhutan, Royal Bhutan Police and the Community Hall. Other unregistered land under the road right of also form a part of the government ownership.

2.5 CIRCULATION NETWORK

2.5.1 EXISTING VEHICULAR AND PEDESTRIAN CIRCULATION

Shechangthang has about 3.01 kilometers of surfaced roads, and 3.22 kilometers of un- surfaced roads. Shechangthang is connected with other city areas by the Sarpang-Damphu highway. The primary road (Sarpang-Damphu highway) is approximately 6.0m wide while the non-asphalted roads are approximately 3.5m wide.

Foot trails: There are several foot trails. They are not well defined and not surfaced or paved. As the road network is not in existence, pathways are the most developed element of the circulation network.

Parking Places: There are no public parking places in Shechangthang. Not all residences have proper parking areas within their premises and it is common to see vehicles parked outside, along the roadside, particularly during night time. These common open spaces used for parking purposes are mostly the plots that are undeveloped.

2.5.2 EXISTING PUBLIC TRANSIT SYSTEM

Private taxis are the only means of local transport other than privately owned vehicles. As the development in Shechangthang is sparse with a very low density it is not viable to have a public transit system in place in the present scenario. Shechangthang lacks in a designated taxi stand.

2.6 EXISTING A MENITIES AND SERVICES

2.6.1 HEALTH AND EDUCATION FACILITIES

There are no hospitals, dispensaries or basic health care units in Shechangthang. The settlement’s nearest medical facility is at Sarpang Tar. The hospital at Sarpang Tar provides the resident of the town with basic health facilities while for higher and specialized facilities the residents are dependent on the hospital at Gelephu. As far as educational facilities are concerned, there are no schools in Shechangthang. The nearest education facility is located at Sarpang Tar, the Sarpang Lower Secondary School and Sarpang Higher Secondary School. These are at a distance of almost 2kms kilometers from the settlement in Shechangthang.

2.6.2 OPEN SPACES AND RECREATIONAL FACILITIES

There is no organized recreational space in Shechangthang. The informal football ground on the government land located towards to north of Shechangthang is the

19

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Existing Physical Development

only recreational space available to the local residents. This solves the purpose of a certain age group only.

2.6.3 HERITAGE AND RELIGIOUS SITES

Shechangthang does not have a heritage or a religious site present within the Urban Village. The only religious site in the entire municipal area is at Sarpang Tar in the form of a monastery. It is located almost 2.5kms from the settlement.

2.6.4 SHOPPING AND OTHER COMMERCIAL FACILITIES

There are no commercial complexes or community shopping centers in Shechangthang. The Urban Village has scattered kind of development and informal shops located within the residential buildings that serve the day to day need of the local people. The residents of Shechangthang are dependent on the Bazaar area for their weekly supplies and household items. It is located at a distance of almost 1.5km from the settlement.

2.6.5 OFFICES AND OTHER WORK PLACES:

There are no offices or commercial centers at Shechangthang. The nearest location of workplaces is the Bazaar area and the offices at Sarpang Tar. Hence all the residents other than those involved in farming are dependent on Sarpang Tar and Bazaar area for livelihood.

2.6.6 OTHER AMENITIES AND FACILITIES: There is a police post adjoining the bridge connecting Shechangthang with the rest of the Municipal area. There are no other amenities like the fire station, public library, bank or postal facility in Shechangthang. Sarpang Tar serves the need of the residents of the entire municipal area with facilities like the bank, post office, educational and health facilities, etc.

2.7 EXISTING U TILITIES AND I NFRASTRUCTURE

2.7.1 WATER SUPPLY

Shechangthang does not have a designated water supply system. Water is drawn from the Sarpang Chhu and from a few perennial streams above the Sarpang-Damphu highway on the west by the local residents. Each house owner has an individual small water storage tank within their plot. Few of the residents use the perennial source above the bazaar area as the only source of drinking water. Water is carried in small containers from a distance of almost 2kms by means of private vehicles.

2.7.2 SEWERAGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The Shechangthang local area does not have a city sewerage management network. Houses employ ‘septic tank-soak pit’ systems. Private septic tanks were made mandatory only in 1997. An overall level of hygiene is maintained in the area and open sewerage flow is uncommon. It is difficult to clean the septic tanks by mechanical cesspool cleaners due to the remoteness of such tanks.

2.7.3 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

Municipal solid waste consists of household waste, construction and demolition debris, sanitation residue and waste from streets. This garbage is generated mainly from residential and commercial complexes. With rising urbanization and change in lifestyle and food habits, the amount of municipal solid waste will increase rapidly. Presently the solid waste is been collected through trucks and disposed off in open. There is no proper Solid-Waste- Disposal site in Sarpang. Hence, most of the households dispose the waste to a temporary waste disposal site located near the old piggery area ahead of the Sarpang Bazaar. Development of a landfill site is required on environmental and health ground.

2.7.4 STORM WATER DRAINAGE

The only designed storm water drainage that takes care of the rain water surface runoff is along the Food Corporation of Bhutan. The storm water collected through these drains is disposed off to the Sarpang Chhu. Other areas of Shechangthang do not have a drainage pattern in absence of natural gullies or streams in the Urban Village.

Bhutan Power Corporation is responsible for the power connection, supply and maintenance in Shechangthang. All the houses in Shechangthang have a power and private cable TV network connection. Due to accessibility to Bhutan Telecom’s mobile phone network only a few houses, FCB, Gup office, Royal Bhutan Police campus and the RNR building have permanent telecommunication lines. The present telecom network is formed by overhead lines but the Bhutan Telecom has plans to convert them into an underground network.

It is important that the network for the above basic infrastructure is planned in coordination to each other as well as an integrated system of natural hierarchy as a whole.

3.0 ANALYTICAL ASSESSMENT OF THE SHECHANGTHANG URBAN VILLAGE

3.1 LAND SUITABILITY

The main objective of land suitability analysis is to identify the developable land. Land covered by forests, environmentally fragile areas, protected areas, and steep slopes are not suitable for any kind of urban development, and are not considered for the calculation of “developable land.” A fifty-meter wide stretch on either side of the Sarpang and the reclaimed land from the river bed are also not considered appropriate for development. Over the long run, this is a public asset, which will enhance the land values and quality of life in the area. The green margin also protects the new structures from soil erosion and improves the soil bearing capacity.

The topographical character of land is the most important factor governing the density distribution of this local area. The Local Area of Shechangthang is divided into two prominent zones of flatter terrain and those with high slopes. The areas to the west are the areas with steep slopes that are densely forested and are found not suitable for development. The other areas in Shechangthang have gradual slopes and are best suitable for densification. Thus this area can be developed for medium and high-density housing, which will enable Shechangthang to accommodate its share of future growth of the city.

3.2 P OPULATION A CCOMMODATION

The Sarpang Structure Plan estimates the current population of Sarpang to increase to 11,323 in the coming twenty-five years. Strategies and phasing to accommodate this additional population within the municipal limits, as well as in the contiguous region, are proposed in the Structure Plan.

As a part of these strategies, the Shechangthang Urban Village will accommodate low, medium and high-density areas. Apart from that, with the development of the Urban Hub, Shechangthang will also have a floating population of employees working in the in-housed commercial and institutional complexes, which provides staff accommodation.

The Local Area Plans and the development of population concentrations around the Urban Hub are proposed to accommodate the additional population. The increased population densities will also facilitate provision of infrastructure and other utility services. This will also fulfill the housing requirements for the people from various economic classes.

3.2.1 SHARE OF SHECHANGTHANG URBAN VILLAGE TO THE TOTAL PROJECTED POPULATION OF SARPANG CITY.

The Sarpang Structure Plan has identified areas suitable for urban development, for housing in-fill, and for the expansion of existing housing across the city. Based on the proportion of the “developable area” in Shechangthang to that of the total population of Sarpang, which needs to be accommodated, the planned population for Shechangthang has been determined.

Based on the proportion of total developable land in the Shechangthang Area, the population accommodation share is 10,673 people!

Assuming an average household size of 4.1 persons, the number of dwelling units required to house the estimated future population in Shechangthang is 2,600!

The above population figures are derived broadly based on the gross area available for development and not taking into consideration the population allocation based on other factors like the slope criteria and the accessibility to various pockets of the local area. Above figures are tentative and are looked into in further details in Chapter 4 of this report upon getting the actual areas based on the Precincts Plan prepared for Shechangthang Local Area Plan.

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Analytical Assessment

3.2.2 LAND HOLDING AND DENSITY DISTRIBUTION PATTERN

The present population of Shechangthang is mainly concentrated along the highway. The residents of Shechangthang are mainly from the higher-middle and middle income groups. More than half the plots (53.27%) of the total land holding falls in the size range of 401sq.m to 750sq.m, while almost one-fourth (24.11%) plots are above size 2,000sq.m. A minimal of 4.17% of the total plots has sizes less than 400sq.m.

The entire Urban Village of Shechangthang has an existing population density of less than 25 persons per hectare. The areas adjoining the Sarpang-Damphu highway, areas surrounding the proposed Urban Hub location and pockets towards the north of the Urban Village with smaller land holdings are best suitable for higher and medium density development. The areas adjoining the forest and area with steep slopes towards the west are found to be best suitable for low density development with cottages and detached bungalow kind of structures.

3.3 CIRCULATION NETWORK

Shechangthang has about 3.01 kilometers of surfaced roads, and 3.22 kilometers of un- surfaced roads. Shechangthang is connected with other city areas by the Sarpang-Damphu highway. The primary road (Sarpang-Damphu highway) is approximately 6.0m wide while the non-asphalted roads are approximately 3.5m wide.

Foot trails: There are several foot trails. They are not well defined and not surfaced or paved. As the road network is not in existence, pathways are the most developed element of the circulation network.

Parking Places: There are no public parking places in Shechangthang. Not all residences have proper parking areas within their premises and it is common to see vehicles parked outside, along the roadside, particularly during night time. These common open spaces used for parking purposes are mostly the plots that are undeveloped.

A need to strengthen the pedestrian network linking all the areas to the proposed Urban Hub is felt necessary in the Urban Village. Development of various hierarchies of roads thus segregating the town level and local level traffic movement needs to be planned for! The primary roads should be designed to take the load of the city level traffic with a strong network of public transit system. Parking arrangements along the secondary roads is a must to avoid future issues that are sighted in most of the urban areas. Road sections should hence make provisions of parallel parking in the residential areas. The future commercial areas/ Urban Hub should have designated parking lots for long term parking.

3.4 U RBAN HUB

The Urban Hub will cater to the entire town and the region’s population and would have all the facilities of a Village Square and much more! The Urban Hub will be the setting for upscale

26

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Analytical Assessment

shopping in branded stores. In addition, it would have entertainment facilities, such as cinema halls, bowling alleys, restaurants, bars, discos, etc. It would have a space for a town level library, banks, post office, town hall, police station, fire station, banks and hotels as well. In Sarpang, the existing town core is centrally located and is proposed to be redeveloped and upgraded into an Urban Core, which will cater to most of the needs of the present day. On the other hand, instead of having a Village Square at Shechangthang, higher level commercial activity is proposed in form of an Urban Hub. As the land in the present Bazaar area is limited, Urban Hub at Shechangthang acts like an extension to the Urban Core. This Urban Hub will not only take off the load of the Urban Core but would also cater to the need of surrounding villages. Though the junction of the present Sarpang-Damphu highway and the future highway connecting the Phibsoo Wild Life sanctuary is felt best suitable site for the Urban Hub, but based on a series of discussion and stakeholder’s requests the Urban Hub is moved towards the centre of the Urban Village.

The Urban Hub would have residential accommodation of high density. The predominant housing typology would be walkup apartments.

The following classification of the facilities in the Urban Hub is based on the neighborhood and city level facilities:

3.5 A MENITIES AND S OCIAL SERVICES

Based on the city level proposals as prescribed in the Structure Plan, the Local Area Plan for Shechangthang needs to provide for the following health and education amenities:

Neighborhood Clinic: A clinic is required, in close vicinity of the Urban Hub, to provide for basic health care facilities, within easy reach of the local population. A neighborhood clinic will require approximately 50 square meters of built-up area.

Primary School: There is a requirement for a primary school in Shechangthang area, in absence of any kind of educational facility. This school will also cater to the children from the neighboring villages and hamlets that are presently dependent on Sarpang Tar for the basic level educational facilities. It will be located in the close vicinity to the Urban Hub, as it has the facility of the express bus service and hence would be helpful for the children coming from far distance.

Crèche and Nursery School: Urban areas face a challenge for working couples who do not have appropriate places where their kids could be taken care of during the day time. Crèches and Nursery schools are best suitable to overcome such problems. It is felt necessary that each Urban Village should have such facilities. It should be centrally located and should be easily accessible to the residents of the Urban Village.

Designed Public Spaces: The open space system and the plazas in the Urban Hub form important public spaces in Shechangthang, which can be designed as spaces for safe pedestrian movement and leisure. The rear side setbacks of the commercial spine could be linked with pedestrian pathways surrounded by landscaped areas. These will in turn create tot lots for the children residing in these high density areas. Open air informal café’s in these landscaped areas would give a different identity to the commercial spine.

28

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Analytical Assessment

Communities Open Spaces: The neighborhood level community open spaces would be evenly distributed in the local area of Shechangthang based on the local context. It will be in between 4-5 percent of the local area. As proposal have been made in the Structure Plan to develop the areas along the river bed as Open Spaces of National Importance, where in Shechangthang has a bigger share of it, this percentage has been reduced down from the actual planning norms of six percent. The provision of these planned community open spaces would restrict the present use of the streets as the play areas for the children. Also the green belt along the Sarpang Chhu will be a good alternative to be used for the purpose during off seasons for playing archery as a long strip of open space is achieved through these green belts.

3.6 UTILITIES AND I NFRASTRUCTURE

Water Supply: Water Supply demand for the Shechangthang area is estimated to be 1.6 mld1. The Sarpang Chhu is considered the primary source of water for Shechangthang. A gravity- filter plan for the purification purpose will be required before the water is supplied to the residents. The favorable topography of Shechangthang facilitates the gravity based water supply network proposed.

Sewerage Management System: The current provision of individual septic tanks does not provide for an adequate and sustainable method of sewerage and waste water management. Provision for an independent treatment plant for Shechangthang Urban Village is proposed at Shechangthang in the Structure Plan proposals. A suitable location, at the lower most point in Shechangthang, to the extreme southern corner of local area is been identified to setup the mechanized sewage treatment plant.

Solid Waste Management: To be served adequately with the management of solid waste requires a proper system of waste collection bins located at frequent intervals, and a frequent collection system. The Local Area Plan proposes local level collection and disposal of collected waste to the landfill site proposed in the Structure plan.

Storm Water Drainage System: A drainage system, mainly running along the road network, to collect the storm water, is essential to be developed in Shechangthang. Due to the potential of draining the area to the Sarpang Chhu, the storm water drains are designed to culminate in the Sarpang Chhu.

Power, Telecommunication and Cable: Though there are no lacunae observed in the provision of these services, increased population in the area will definitely pose greater demands for power, and the number of telephone and cable connections. The provision of underground ducts, under the footpaths, will facilitate running these services in an integrated way, and will make the maintenance of the cables easier.

4.0 PROPOSAL

4.1 P LOT RECONFIGURATION

A major focus of the Shechangthang Urban Village Local Area Plan is to reconfigure the existing developed land in such a manner that each landowner retains their original land parcel, but with proper access, amenities and services. By reconfiguring the layout of land, the plots shall be regular in size and shape allowing efficient development. This is essential because the land has been subdivided and sold in a haphazard manner, with no provision for the inclusion of modern infrastructure, which will assure hygiene, health, communications, electricity, drainage and access. The process is thus an operation of corrective surgery! But this is a participatory process, in which the people of Shechangthang are completely involved.

The re-configuration of plots involves designing a new layout for the entire area under consideration and the area’s redistribution into regular plot sizes, with access roads of a minimum width. This will also allow for the provision of adequate storm water drainage and the laying of underground infrastructure. This process is carried out in a consultative process, where the owners are kept informed of the process of restructuring and redistribution. The new rationalized plots will be “re-issued,” after equitably deducting areas from parcels for road widening and extension, public open spaces and amenities.

In this process the land values are enhanced and the price of property goes up. Generally, the landowners end up with a smaller property package, yet of much higher value than when they began! The value of the land pooled for civic improvement is far less than the “value added” to the property at the time of redistribution. The amount of land deducted from parcels, is a percentage derived by calculating the total land required for roads (widening and extension), open spaces, common infrastructure and community amenities in the new layout, distributed equally over the original total land area. Where an individual property is too small to deduct an equitable proportion as a “development fee,” a Development Tax is charged to the landowner to cover his fair share of the cost of improving the area. This Development Tax must be reinvested into the Shechangthang Local Area for infrastructure improvement by the Sarpang Municipal Corporation (SMC). For this purpose, a Development Fund must be created for each local area. Each Local Area Plan in the city thus requires its own account, with complete transparency as to the operation of that account.

Besides these objectives and modalities, the accommodation of the estimated future population and its appropriate distribution through variable densities, also has governed the reconfiguration of land in the Shechangthang Local Area Plan.

The following table provides a break-up of the land according to the proposed layout and plot reconfiguration.

6b Rounding off the LP percentage to 30.00%

Based on the proposed layout and plot redistribution, this comes to 30.00 percent of the land. This will be deducted from each plot, while the remaining land shall be returned to the landowner. Where there is an occupied, habitable structure on a plot, that same plot, minus the “development land” will be returned to the original owner. In cases, where there is no structure on the plot, an alternative plot may be allotted to the original landowner, in a nearby location. This reallocated plot will be calculated by taking the original plot area and deducting the 30.00 percent of “development land”.

In cases, where the land owners get a plot size smaller than the minimum required size, it is proposed to have a common wall system (plot consolidation) with the adjoining property owner. In such cases with smaller plots they benefit by saving on one side setback and still develop their individual properties. Precautions have been taken to serve all the owners equally and provide them with best suitable options for future plot level development.

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

The plot-wise reconfiguration and reallocation details are attached in the table at the end of this chapter.

4.2 P ROPOSED P RECINCTS P LAN

Though, the precincts proposed in Shechangthang Local Area Plan is derived from the Structure Plan, their boundaries are rationalized according to new plot configuration and road layout.

The predominant land use of the proposal is residential divided across two precincts, namely, Urban Village-Core (UV2) and Urban Village–Periphery (UV3). According to the main permitted uses in these two precincts, allowed building heights and bulk regulations proposed in the Development Regulations, UV2 is a medium-density residential precinct, while UV3 is a low- density residential precinct. Ground floor commercial activities, local level retail shopping, service establishments, and small restaurants are permissible in these predominantly residential precincts, based on which a mix of residential and commercial development is envisioned to come up in these areas. The development envisioned in UV2 will provide housing for middle income and lower income level groups.

A new Urban Hub precinct (UC2) is proposed in Shechangthang where the facilities provided range from the small scale retail commercial uses at a convenient location catering the residents of Shechangthang to the city level commercial, recreational and institutional facilities. The Urban Hub Precinct will house convenience shopping, a crèche, a neighborhood clinic, post office, garden, an automobile service station and other facilities on the neighborhood level. At the city level it will also have a cinema hall, an auditorium, sports and other recreational facilities, bus routes connecting Shechangthang with the rest of the town, telecommunication facilities, a police station and fire fighting facilities. High-density residential structures shall be developed around the Urban Hub Precinct.

Protection, as well as enhancement, of environmental resources is a major theme and concern of the Structure Plan. Implementation of these concerns is ensured through various environmental, open spaces and agriculture related precincts. The Forest Environments (E-2) and Flood Protection Zone/Environmental Conservation (E4) precincts, proposed in the Shechangthang Local Area Plan, provide protection by prohibiting development activities in the areas rich in environmental resources. Since flooding occurs in Sarpang Chhu, a 50metre wide buffer is kept for flood mitigation and also for the conservation of the rich environment.

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

Under the provisions of the Environmental Conservation Precinct (E1), no development is allowed within a fifty meters wide strip (reclaimed land) along each side of the Sarpang Chhu. The forest in the extreme west that are located on steep slopes, defining the western city boundary, has certain private ownerships are also protected under the provisions of the E2 precinct, which allows only those activities undertaken on behalf of, or permitted by, the proposed Development Control Regulations manual. Plots that fall partially in UV3 and a part in E2 have been worked out meticulously. The part of the plot that falls under UV3 is considered under land pooling based on the polygon areas and the part under E2 is been excluded from land pooling. The part of the plots in E2 precinct are rationalized based on the contours and allocated adjoining to their properties in UV3 thus allowing pedestrian access to these non-developable parts of their properties.

The table below illustrates the distribution of precinct areas in the proposed Shechangthang Local Area Plan.

4.4 P ROPOSED U RBAN HUB

4.4.1 URBAN HUB AS AN IMPORTANT AREA LEVEL FACILITY

The basic idea of an Urban Hub is to create an alternative commercial center with public facilities. The Urban Hub in Shechangthang will not only serve the population in Shechangthang but also population residing in nearby villages and hamlets. The commercial areas and Public facilities will reduce the pressure on the City Core at the present Bazaar area. The people in the western areas of Sarpang may not have to depend upon the City Core for their work places, basic needs and other recreation facilities.

4.4.2 URBAN HUB AS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT IN THE TRANSIT ORIENTED DEVELOPMENT

The Urban hub can act either as a destination or a transit node with facilities for ‘modal split’ within the entire framework for transport suggested for Sarpang city in the Structure Plan. Thus transport facilities like an intra-city bus stop and a taxi stand will connect the Urban Hub with the rest of the city. Public parking will be accommodated within the Hub. People in other parts of Sarpang, can drive to the Hub acting as a workplace and as a center for recreational facilities, park the car and enjoy the pedestrian oriented environment within the Urban Hub. At a smaller scale, an Urban Hub in Sarpang acts like a shopping mall in America, or a “district center” in New Delhi.

The Urban Hub can be split into the following three components:

• Commercial component.

• Recreational component

• Public conveniences component

4.4.3 COMMERCIAL COMPONENT:

This will include mainly the city level commercial activities like shopping arcades, large departmental stores, bookshops, net cafés, bars, restaurants and cafeterias. It would also house the private office spaces required for the growing business community. The area above public buildings can also be used to accommodate additional commercial areas like a stock exchange, company offices, professional suites and studios. Based upon the development control regulations, there can be separate guidelines to control the ground coverage and height of the commercial buildings. There should be urban design controls over the massing and facades of these buildings. There should be provisions to accommodate plot level parking either in, basements or under stilts. Apart from this, every commercial building should have off-street parking in the front to accommodate the visitor’s vehicle parking.

40

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

4.4.4 RECREATIONAL COMPONENT:

This will include city level recreational facilities like cinema theatre, auditorium and bowling alleys. These facilities can be under the private ownership. The recreational component also includes area level sports facilities like an indoor swimming pool, tennis and basketball courts, table tennis, squash, archery field, etc. The sports facilities are proposed in close proximity to the river edge as these active recreational areas can intermingle with the passive recreational areas proposed in the environmental conservation precinct along the river edge. The National Importance Open Space along the river bed is proposed to be a city level recreational space that will house the exhibition ground, picnic spots for people of all age groups, jogging tracks, pedestrian and bicycle connectivity through pedestrian bridges to the other parts of the town.

41

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

4.4.5 PUBLIC CONVENIENCES COMPONENT:

This includes the public facilities provided by the government like post office, banks, fire station, fuel service etc. Most of the public conveniences need to be built and maintained by the Government. The public buildings should provide for the plot level parking. The design of the Urban Hub is such that it brings the public buildings together along the central axis. Most of the government facilities are proposed to be a part of the Government Plot that is located adjoining the FCB go-down. It is also proposed that private buildings should accommodate facilities like the ATM, Dispensary, other banking facilities, cinema hall, automobile workshops, etc. These will generate good revenue for the private land owners and government land could be utilized for the development of government institutions. This gives a better opportunity to visually organize the central open space by controlling the visual massing and facades of these public buildings through Urban Design guidelines. Utility structures like service station, workshops and sewerage treatment plant should be built with utmost care, such that they are not visually repulsive and should be based on urban design guidelines to make them ideal in the surrounding urban-scape. The effluents generated from these workshops should be well treated before they are finally discharged to the river.

4.4.6 OPEN SPACE SYSTEM:

The Urban Hub is proposed to look inward to an open space system composed of pathways and plazas creating a pedestrian oriented environment. Thus, the buildings served from streets and parking lots surrounding the hub will be facing inward to an open area. The open space system will also be significant in connecting most of the Urban Hub components with pedestrian linkages without crossing any major vehicular roads.

Public parking lots and linearly organized road side parking are provided to accommodate the future parking requirement. Apart from these, the commercial buildings should have provision for off-street visitor’s parking within their plots.

4.4.7 THE IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS FOR THE URBAN HUB:

The proposed Urban Hub at Shechangthang is mostly owned by private owners. Unlike other Urban Hubs in various towns, there would be no land acquisition made for public amenities. Most of the space required for the public amenities would either be located in the government land or be would developed by private owners and leased to the individual government agencies. This will generate good revenue for the private land owners. On the other hand Development Control Regulations need to be strictly followed in order to make the Urban Hub pedestrian friendly.

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

4.5 P ROPOSED P ROJECTS IN SHECHANGTHANG

The Shechangthang Urban Village Local Area plan proposes enhancement of the entire area by the development of few inherent potentials, present within its boundaries. This includes conservation of steep slopes along the western hill slopes and development of vegetation on reclaimed land on both sides of Sarpang Chhu. The area adjoining the river bed conservation zone is proposed to be developed as a recreational place for the future residents of Sarpang. The urban hub itself will be a project in itself based on the proposed Development Control Regulations. The commercial plots will be developed by the land owners themselves and rented out for office or institutional purposes. The existing football ground is proposed to be developed into a sports complex that will house both indoor and outdoor sports facilities like the swimming pool, football ground, tennis court, badminton court, basket ball court, table tennis, etc. In future possibility of having a sports training center with residential facility for trainees cannot be neglected.

4.6 P ROPOSED C IRCULATION NETWORK

Primary objectives of the proposed circulation have been:

• To ensure public safety

• To provide access to each plot;

• To facilitate uninterrupted vehicular movement;

• To prevent vehicular-pedestrian conflicts; and

• To provide for an efficient public transit system

The existing road network in Shechangthang largely pivots around the Sarpang-Damphu highway. The average existing width of this primary road is 6 meters. It can be upgraded technically to a primary road, capable of carrying the public transit system, which will be based on a mix of peak hour express buses, with local buses during intermediate hours. It has been proposed to be upgraded into an Urban Corridor with 4-lanes and footpaths on both the side. This will take the load of the traffic generated within the Urban Village of Shechangthang and also take care of the highway traffic. It is proposed to have a 17.5 meters wide right-of- way. As a result this Urban Corridor will link Shechangthang with the rest of the areas of Sarpang town with an efficient transit system.

The Urban Hub is surrounded along the proposed 20 meters wide road link that is appropriately linked to the Urban Corridor. This commercial spine will have 4-lanes and footpaths on both the sides. Parking provisions along this spine is avoided in order to have a smooth flow of fast moving vehicular traffic. Taxi parking is conveniently proposed on both sides of this road in order to have a smooth traffic flow and keeping in mind the convenience

43

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

of the users. This will also discourage the users of public transport to cross over this busy street to avail the transportation facility. Angular entry into and exit from the Urban Hub is planned based on the direction of the traffic movement.

Other pockets of the Shechangthang Local Area will be connected by means of eleven and fourteen meter wide roads. These roads will serve both the residential and commercial pockets of Shechangthang. These will have two lanes to accommodate the vehicular traffic and a continuous pedestrian footpath on one side and intermediate parallel and angular parking facilities at regular intervals on the other side.

All the residential pockets are well connected with a network of off-street pathways with a width ranging in between 2 to 3 meters that links the commercial hub and the recreational areas that are proposed at the periphery of the Urban Village. This will help minimize the use of vehicles and as a result make the entire Urban Village pedestrian friendly.

4.7 P ROPOSED A MENITIES AND S OCIAL SERVICES

4.7.1 HEALTH FACILITIES

Based on the detailed requirement analysis carried out in the Structure Plan, there is a need to provide for a dispensary/ clinic in Shechangthang. The clinic is proposed to be in the Urban Hub in a private property and will be run on a rental basis. This clinic will have a preliminary diagnostic facility. There will not be any in-patient facility at this clinic as the hospital at Sarpang Tar is proposed to be upgraded to a 30-bedded hospital with such facilities. The facility will provide a range of out-patient care facilities, including therapy, drug administration and monitoring of body element levels.

4.7.2 EDUCATION FACILITIES

There is a requirement for a primary level education facility in Shechangthang not only for the residents of Shechangthang but also for the people, who reside in the nearby villages. Presently the nearest primary educational facility is available at Sarpang Tar that is almost 2kms from Shechangthang wherein in absence of a school bus facility and public transport the students have to walk to and fro to the school. Hence it is proposed to have a primary school in Shechangthang. This reason plays a vital role in terms of identifying an appropriate site for the school. Beyond solving the purpose of the residents of Shechangthang, the proposed primary school will serve most of the western areas of Sarpang. For this private land has been pooled in! A public open space is proposed adjoining the proposed primary school in order to make use of it in the form of a play ground during the school hours. The same could be made available as a public open space to the local residents during the off-school hours. Adjoining area outside the municipal limit could be used as an extension to the primary school as and when the up-gradation of the school is felt necessary demanding for additional land.

4.7.3 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Shechangthang is proposed to be served by a door-to-door kind of solid waste collection system, under which, the community will have to hire the services of the Sarpang Municipal Corporation (S.M.C) trained workers to collect the waste from each household. The workers will be trained to segregate the waste into recyclable and non-recyclable categories, and will dump the waste in the bins classified respectively. The bins will be installed at walking distance across the locality. Disposal of this waste will be carried out by Sarpang Municipal on a regular basis from the bins. In the low-density areas, the S.M.C will promote compost pits with “vermiculture” for the production of garden compost. Only metal and glass will be collected from the low density areas on a weekly basis. Paper and other timber based waste materials will be used to kindle fires or composted in low-density areas. The waste thus collected will be disposed off to the solid waste disposal site identified in the Sarpang Structure Plan.

50

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

4.7.4 RECREATIONAL AND SPORTS FACILITIES

As a part of the recommendations from the Structure Plan of the Sarpang city, the Shechangthang Local Area Plan proposes both active and passive recreational facilities, including provision of space for the enhancement of traditional sports like archery. As a part of the facilities provided a sports complex is proposed at the existing football ground, which will house various sports like football, tennis, basketball, badminton, table tennis and indoor swimming pool. These facilities will not serve only the residents of Shechangthang. Apart from these, the proposed fifty-meter green corridor for the Sarpang Chhu and the National level Open Space would also act as passive recreational spaces where people can picnic, walk, jog, gather, relax, exercise and enjoy the nature.

4.8 P ROPOSED U TILITIES AND I NFRASTRUCTURE

4.8.1 WATER SUPPLY

An exclusive water supply system is proposed for the Shechangthang area, which includes filtration, storage and distribution of water.

The water supply and sewerage waste disposal systems proposed in this respect are merely “notional ideas” to begin serious designs by the ST’s competent public health engineers.

The Sarpang Chhu is identified as the primary source. A Filtration Plant is proposed at Shechangthang that will take care of the water filtration process for the water supplied to Shechangthang and also the other areas within the Sarpang Thromde limits.

A Main Reservoir for storage is proposed along with the filtration plant. The Main Reservoir is to be of 1.6 million liters capacity. This reservoir is to be constructed to serve the entire Urban Village of Shechangthang including the Urban Hub.

The storage reservoir will be constructed on the ground and water will be supplied in these areas through partial pressurized pumping system and partially through gravity-flow system. The distribution network is composed of Galvanized Iron / Ductile Iron pipes of the following diameters:

Table 7: Details of the proposed water supply distribution network

Distribution network category Pipe Diameter

Primary Network 300-250 mm

Secondary Network 200-100 mm

Tertiary Network 100-25 mm

51

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

Note: The local area plan limits itself to proposing a notional system of water supply based upon the total station survey and data provided. Pipe diameters should be calculated and designed by the experts only after detail hydraulic analysis. The proposals given above are to initiate the process and to allow the first cost estimates.

A maintenance centre is also proposed in the urban hub that would have a bill collection centre and a complaint cell.

Drawing 15: Proposed Sewerage Management System

54

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

Fire fighting requirements for the Shechangthang Urban Village Area:

To satisfy and safeguard the fire fighting requirements of the Shechangthang urban village, it is proposed that there should be a reservoir of approximately 6.7cum (6,700 Liters) capacity. This recommendation has been adopted from the recommendations of the Draft Planning Standards for Urban Settlements in Bhutan, by the Department of Urban Development and Housing, MoC, 1999, which recommends a reservoir capacity of 30, 000 gallons.

It is proposed that this reservoir be established within the Shechangthang Urban Village to satisfy the fire safety requirements. In the same regard, it has been proposed that a pressurized network of water supply be established to enable the setting up of on-street “fire- hydrants” within the Shechangthang Urban Hub and medium-density residential area.

4.8.2 SEWERAGE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

Shechangthang is proposed to be served by a sewerage network. The network is designed to collect sewerage from the area, and direct it to the proposed mini-treatment plant in the south-east pocket of the local area. The proposed Shechangthang treatment plant is of 1.25 mld capacity, which will serve the future population of Shechangthang.

A network of main trunk and collector branches is proposed to run mainly along the roads underneath footpaths. No sewer will run under the carriageway, which hinders traffic flow during the maintenance. The proposed sewer network is composed of pipes of the following diameters:

Table 8: Details of the Proposed Sewer Network

Sewer Network category Pipe Diameter

Primary Network 500-350 mm

Secondary Network 350-225 mm

Tertiary Network 150 mm

Treatment Plant

Taking into account the expected sewerage load and its future implications, a detailed study needs to be carried out to decide upon the location and the treatment system of the new treatment plant. The following set of guidelines can be of assistance:

• The sewerage treatment plants should not be located near ground water resources, in areas with high water percolation rate and in lands suitable for agricultural use.

55

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

• Locations of the plants need to be decided considering the drainage and slope pattern, so as to minimize the needs for pumping station.

• The new treatment plant should be designed with provision for expansion to meet the requirements in the future.

• Treatment technology options which are less land intensive should be explored for the new plant like the Ecoline System as implemented at Damphu.

• Periodic flooding and ground water levels must be considered.

Deciding upon the technology to be used in the proposed treatment plants will be based on comparative analysis of candidate technologies, with respect to local environmental considerations; as well as on the techno-economic feasibility studies.

4.8.3 STORM WATER MANAGEMENT

The favorable topology facilitates smooth drainage of storm water in the streams and the Sarpang Chhu from Shechangthang. The proposed storm-water drainage network runs primarily along the roads and underneath footpaths. A typical drain laid under the footpath, will have vertical grills as part of the level-difference between the footpath and the carriageway. This arrangement is suitable to prevent blocking of the drains due to garbage and other waste being accumulated on the horizontal grills.

Figure 16: Typical Cross-section of Storm Water Drain

4.8.4 POWER, TELEPHONE AND CABLES

The existing level of these services is insufficient for the current population and they will need to be upgraded in phases to provide for the expanding population of Shechangthang. All the services are proposed to run underground as against the existing over-head cables.

56

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

4.8.5 STREET LIGHTING

An adequate street lighting system is proposed along the road network in Shechangthang. Since there is no existing street lighting system in Shechangthang, the entire system needs to be installed. Care should be taken during the laying of street lights on the Urban Corridor as it will be taking the load of most of the traffic generated in the town. Details of the proposed street lighting system are as follows:

4.8.6 TREE PLANTING

Tree planting in the Shechangthang Urban Village is an important aspect because nearly 11.41 hectares (12.65%) of area in the Urban Village are forest areas. In the areas on the west of the Urban Village there already exists a cover of natural vegetation, which will have to be protected. Most of the forested areas can be maintained by the Forest Department. They can promote ‘eco-trails’ within these forested areas for tourists and students, giving valuable information about the bio-diversity of Bhutan. On the western boundary of Shechangthang local area, the slopes gradually become steeper and drift gradually into the hilly areas outside the municipal boundary, which are covered with natural vegetation. The forest cover in the Shechangthang Urban Village area will serve as a ‘transition’ between the urban areas and the wilderness. Tree plantation is a must on land with steep slopes that are facing land erosion issues. Also, the land reclaimed from the river bed and proposed as the river protection zone and national level open space should undergo plantation with the locally available species of plants and trees. As a result this will stabilize the soil in the reclaimed land and save the river edges from getting washed away by any future flash floods.

4.8.7 ROADSIDE PLANTATION:

The Primary Road within a local area can be treated as an avenue of wide spread shading trees. Most of the primary roads are also major shopping spines, which need shaded areas to facilitate the pedestrian as well the road-side car parking. Evergreen trees with dense foliage, wide-spread canopy will be suitable for primary roads. A mixture of flowering trees can be planted as second row at wider road sections for seasonal variation in streetscape. Secondary 57

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Proposal

roads and access roads can be treated with medium sized flowering trees with dense foliage to provide shade to road-side pedestrians, as well to the residential neighborhood.

4.8.8 DEVELOPMENT MANAGEMENT:

The Shechangthang area will undergo continuous up-gradation, repairs, infill and the construction of buildings, roads and infrastructure systems. This continuous process will be a source of continuous air pollution, traffic conflicts, visual pollution and ripping up and slightly repairing roads, sidewalks and plot fronts. A system must be devised to regulate the timing and entry paths and of construction and repair vehicles. Separate underground infrastructure from being under streets and footpaths. In advance provide large pipes and conduits under streets, particularly at corners.

6.2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The preparation of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan is the primary task of the Department of Urban Development and Engineering Services (DUDES) under the Ministry of Works and Human Settlement (MoW&HS), Royal Government of Bhutan (RGoB). This Investment Plan Report presents and discusses projects which are proposed as a part of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan. Looking at the demographic studies it reveals that population will reach a figure of 11,323 while the accommodation capacity of Shechangthang would be 10,673 by the year 2035.

71

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Investment Plan

The Investment Plan proposal can act as a reference to plan carefully, to take care of the infrastructure needs of this growing population. This Plan deals in detail with infrastructure projects. It aims to help various departments to work together more efficiently and to execute the projects in a coordinated way and to provide greater transparency for the community on the infrastructure strategies and projects. Along with this process the implementing authority should also stress on the issues of maintenance and of implication for the provision of new infrastructure; on the possibilities for multi-year budgeting for infrastructure projects, and on new technologies and their implications for infrastructure.

While making the proposals for action three major criteria are used to assess the merits of an infrastructure project.

They should:

• Meet a clear social need;

• Be consistent with existing government policies and requirements; and

• Produce more benefits than costs.

The community’s need for an infrastructure project may emerge from a number of factors. The report takes in to consideration population factor: population growth, population movements and the characteristics of new population distribution. The community’s need for infrastructure may also stem from the demands of economic change over and above that required simply to sustain a growing population.

The Shechangthang Local Area Plan is prepared considering four key policy points within which strategies, plans, initiatives and individual infrastructure projects would fit.

These are:

• Integrating environment protection into all activities;

• Encouraging economic development and employment growth;

• Achieving greater social justice for all members of the community and creating livable towns; and,

• Delivering more financially responsible programs that reduce public debt and unfunded liabilities.

Some of the most important initiatives aimed at helping, meet these commitments are:

• Reducing pollution from storm water and sewage;

• Integrating land use and transport planning;

72

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Investment Plan

• Investing in information technology infrastructure;

• Improving access to affordable housing; and

• Enhancing recreational and cultural infrastructure.

The Investment Plan specifies the proposed projects and recommendations that will deliver these initiatives.

As per the analysis of the proposed projects mentioned in the ‘Proposals for Action’, the Investment for the Shechangthang Urban Village (within the proposed municipal boundary limits) will be about Nu. 707.923 Million (USD 15.732 Million) and within Municipal Limits and outside the Municipal Limits add to Nu. 897.233 Million (USD 19.939 Million) up to the year 2035, for the projects of various SECTORS.

6.3 P ROPOSED P ROJECTS: COST E STIMATED (SECTOR W ISE)

6.4 P ROJECT I MPLEMENTATION AND P ROJECT M ANAGEMENT

6.4.1 IMPLEMENTATION

The Structure Plan is implemented through a variety of means including Local Area Plans prepared for various zones. The implementation may be done through the following methods

• Urban Strategy and Action Programme

• Economic Strategies

• Guidelines for Developer’s Contributions

• City Conservation/ Forest Protection Strategy

• Recreation Strategies

• Tourism Strategies

• Urban Fringe Countryside Management Plan

82

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Investment Plan

• Local Transport Plans

Supplementary planning guidance does have to be prepared in order to assist in implementing the strategy. The particular supplementary planning guidance should contain broad guidelines about the requirements for developer contributions towards the services and facilities needed to support new development.

It is proposed that implementation of the Shechangthang Local Area Plan, Sarpang Municipal Corporation would be the Implementing Authority. There is an immediate requirement to set up a Municipal Corporation at Sarpang by recruiting technical professionals in the engineering and management fields.

Also, the Sarpang Municipal Corporation along with the Department of Urban Development and Engineering Services (DUDES) should explore the commissioning of the external or international consultants for design and project management of the jobs. Corporation representatives can be a part of the team so as to get trained and also as a means of direct exposure to the work.

The records from the Construction Development Board confirm that contractors under various categories are capable for executing projects of different scales, thus strengthening the capacities of the building construction contracting industry.

A provision in the projects implementation process is that the work should not be necessarily awarded to the lowest cost bidder. It should be ensured that this provision will take care of the quality of the job. But, again this may not suffice, and, a very strict monitoring by a team of technical professionals has to be lined-up for close supervision and monitoring.

With the execution of the projects there has to be a back-up of a very strong maintenance team. This team will ensure regular monitoring and maintenance of the jobs being executed to keep them intact and functioning.

6.4.2 RESOURCES

The Implementing Authorities have a good idea of the resources that are likely to be available to implement the Local Area Plan’s proposals. This includes taking account of the city’s economic policies, the financial policies of implementing agencies and the likely availability for the use of land, labor and other material resources. As the Structure Plan for Sarpang sets out policies and proposals for land use in broad terms and over the long term, such an assessment can only be made in general terms and will inevitably be subject to some uncertainty.

The Sarpang Structure Plan and the Shechangthang Local Area Plan provides the strategic precinct planning framework for the decision making by a wide range of public and private sector bodies and agencies whose contribution will be necessary to implement the Plan. In preparing the Plan consultation took place with concerned bodies regarding amongst other

83

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Investment Plan

matters the use of resources. The Implementing Authority will need to work with these other bodies and agencies to secure the necessary resources to implement the Plan. Making effective use of resources will necessitate genuine partnership working both between the Implementing Authority and various bodies and organizations operating at the strategic and more local levels and with local communities.

Public investment includes funds made available from Local Authorities and those secured from the Government via bidding arrangements as for the Local Transport Plans and from other organizations. The restrictions on public expenditure means that much will depend on securing private finance to implement the development requirements proposed in the Plan.

The above mentioned guidelines dealing with requirements for developer’s contributions towards the services and facilities required to support new development will be particularly relevant in this respect.

6.4.3 MONITORING

Monitoring plays an important part in the Local Area Plan implementation process. In order to assess the effectiveness and progress of the Plan, policies should be regularly monitored by the Implementing Authority.

There are two main elements of the monitoring process:

• Scrutiny of emerging Local Area Plan in terms of their conformity with Structure Plan policies.

• Identification of appropriate indicators and the continuous monitoring of social, economic and environmental data to assess the effectiveness of the Local Area Plan.

The second element will be undertaken by the use of a selected number of key indicators and targets that will measure specific policies or groups of policies. It will provide a consistent basis to judge whether the Plan is achieving its objectives, and to identify where policies need to be strengthened, maintained, changed or removed as part of future reviews.

The following factors have been taken into account in identifying the key indicators

• The ability of the Local Area Plan to influence the indicator;

• The overall objectives of the Plan set out in Strategy Policy;

• The policies themselves;

• The availability of source data; and,

• Their compatibility with other national, regional and local indicators.

84

Shechangthang (Ranibagan) Local Area Plan Investment Plan

The indicators will monitor progress towards meeting the targets set by the Plan. The measurement of such indicators will provide an initial indication of the effectiveness of the policies. However, further analysis will be required to be undertaken to give a more informed consideration. The analysis of indicators and implementation of the policies through Local Area Plans will provide an opportunity to identify areas requiring further investigation and, where appropriate, the need for new policy responses in a future review of the Structure Plan and the Local Area Plan.
