Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

FOREWORD

Punjab Municipal Development Fund Company (PMDFC) is implementing a project called Punjab Municipal Services Improvement Project (PMSIP) for institutional development of TMAs and improving municipal services delivery. The project is being funded by the World Bank and Government of Punjab. Apart from providing funds for improvement and development of municipal infrastructure, the key initiative of PMSIP is to assist TMAs in developing their institutional capacity by providing management support tools like planning and GIS, computerization of TMA functions, trainings, establishment of performance management system and financial management system etc.

Punjab is a rapidly urbanizing province and as a fallout of it the municipal service delivery services are overburdened since they are not developed at the pace of urbanization, particularly in small and medium sized towns. The main objective of PMSIP is centered upon to devise such a mechanism that would not only capacitate the municipal authorities for their day to day functioning of routine tasks but also to identify the main areas of development sectors to fund. The rapid urbanization of bigger conurbations is a direct consequence of leaving development of smaller towns un-addressed. It has other outcomes as well like increased poverty, less socio- economic opportunities and overburdening of the existing infrastructure. It is in this connection that small towns of Punjab be scaled up to act as engines of the economic growth.

These planning reports encompass a comprehensive view to formulate a city vision, investment plans and development plans endorsed by the citizen priorities. The report also addresses the capacity constraints and issues related to operation and maintenance of various development projects. Additionally, the reports focus on the short term and the long term aspects of development of the city. For short term plans Action Plans and for long term futuristic planning Structure Plans are prepared. The overall process followed is consistent with the Guideline, “Developing Strategies and Action Plans for Punjab Towns” published by the World Bank. We hope these reports will be a way forward in strengthening the local government system in Punjab.

CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION

1.1 Background

Planning is a part of Punjab’s local government system with the planning responsibilities of TMAs, set out in PLGO. Under the devolved system, the newly created office of TO (P) has the following functions; (i) develop plans; (ii) develop and apply building controls; (iii) manage CCBs; (iv) implement commercialization rules; (v) operate Punjab Housing Development Schemes; (vi) develop site development schemes. In addition, the PLGO identifies the preparation of spatial plans (Article 54 (a)), development plans (Article 54 (c)) and budget plans, long term and Annual Development Programs (Article 54(j)) as key functions of the TMAs. Unfortunately, in majority of TMAs TO (P)) office has not been able to perform as envisioned in the PLGO. Some of the reasons are inadequate staff and lack of up-to- date maps, equipment, management/ regulation/ and enforcement mechanisms. As a result, development works are taking place in a piecemeal manner and lack integrated and coordinated approach.

1.2 Punjab Municipal Service Improvement Project (PMSIP)

Under these circumstances the Government of Punjab launched Punjab Municipal Service Improvement Project (PMSIP) through Punjab Municipal Development Fund Company (PMDFC) .The project aims at the institutional development of TMAs through improving systems directly related to their functions and through investments in service delivery.

1.2.1 Key Features of PMSIP

The project has two distinct components; Infrastructure Development and Institutional Development (ID):

Infrastructure development: The project funds the infrastructure schemes after the identification of most pressing development issues of the respective town. 7 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

Institutional Development: To improve the municipal service delivery, a number of interventions, have been introduced such as establishment of systems like (PMS, CTS, CFMS) provision of trainings to TMA staff and development of GIS based municipal and Urban Planning Maps.

1.3 PMSIP Planning

Under PMSIP planning, rapid appraisal of municipal services is undertaken to identify service delivery gaps on the basis of technical analysis. The main function of PMSIP Planning is the involvement of stakeholders to make the planning exercise meaningful and demand driven. Outcome of this exercise is a municipal service data base, improved GIS based maps and a list of development projects, ensured by stakeholders that may be funded by PMSIP and other funding sources.

1.3.1 Limitations of PMSIP Planning

As every project addresses specific issues, PMSIP has been launched with some limitations as follows:

 The PMSIP development grants fund for municipal services only.  PMSIP planning exercise is undertaken for CO Unit Headquarter (Tehsil Headquarter).  The prioritized list that is developed is restricted to the CO Unit Headquarter (Tehsil Headquarter).

It is assumed that experience gained in the urban areas would be replicated in the entire Tehsil by the TMA staffs who have gained experience and training during the planning process, whose details are as follows.

1.4 The Planning Process

The adopted Planning process incorporates an overall strategy for highlighting the development options and the community’s agreed outputs. These outputs form the basis of spatial plan. It is a more inclusive approach aiming to ensure best use of land by weighing up competing demands.

The plan devised is an ongoing process for the sustainable development. To achieve such development a spatial plan has been developed. It addresses municipal development issues and infrastructure needs in a systematic way. The plan therefore emphasizes on engagement with the stakeholders and other organizations, the management and ongoing funding programs. This leads to identify community’s preferences for development process.

Following steps were adopted for the planning process:

1.4.1 Secondary Data Collection

First, the sources were identified for the previous attempts that were made in Attock for planning. It includes, DCR, online data and PHED services maps.

The study of such documents helped to gather background information about the town, infrastructure coverage and growth. It helped to have an understanding about the development patterns evolved over the years.

The maps from Public Health reflected the water supply and sewerage schemes. Information was also gathered whether the projects had completed their designed life. These plans were again used at the analysis stage and compared with the data collected during the current planning exercise.

1.4.2 Mapping

The first requirement before going to the field was to prepare a base map for the town. For this purpose, the mapping exercise was started in parallel to the secondary data collection. The image was procured for the TMA. It was then processed and a vectorized layer was made. The land marks were put on the base map using the secondary sources i.e. maps obtained from PHED. The land marks included the important roads, water features, big buildings, factories, graveyards etc.

The collected GIS based data was then processed to develop with the help of GIS technology, the updated maps of land use, water supply, sewerage, road network, solid waste management etc. All necessary landmarks, like the important buildings, religious structures, visiting places, etc. were put on these maps. These maps will assist to develop feasible plans for improved services in the town.

1.4.3 Field Data Collection

Preliminary Meetings

Once the data collection forms were finalized the planning team initiated the data collection process in the field. First, a meeting was held with the TMA leader ship (Nazim) to discuss the field data collection work plan. At this stage a planning steering committee comprising of TOs, and a working group constituting ATOs and other lower order officials was notified. The duties were assigned and a briefing was given to these officials about their role in data collection.

The planning team discussed the general development issues of the town with the TMA leadership

Infrastructure Data Collection

For infrastructure data collection, the planning team worked very closely with the working group. First the existing service maps available with the TMA were used as a starting point. To update the map the secondary source like information from Public health maps was added. This information was verified by the working group to prepare an updated map for the services.

This missing or additional information was provided by second line officials. For instance, for water supply, plumbers and sub engineers provided first hand information about the system. Where necessary, field visits were made to validate the information.

Urban Planning

A land use survey was conducted to update the TMA map. The residential areas, commercial, institutional and open spaces and industrial areas were marked on the base map. The team comprised for the survey was TO (P), urban planner from PMDFC and draftsman from TMA.

12 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

The Planning office guided about the growth directions of the town and a rudimentary survey was made in this regard. It was observed where the new residences were built and institutions were being developed. These factors determine the future expansion of the town.

1.4.4 Data Analysis

Once the field teams collected the data during its visit to town, data collection forms were arranged and data was entered. The collected sub-sector wise information was scrutinized and based on this analysis, the existing condition of municipal infrastructure was determined. Accordingly, the demand-supply gaps in the town were identified, focusing on roads, water supply, sanitation, solid waste management, slaughter house, park/open spaces and firefighting.

Based on the information collected from the field, the GIS based descriptive maps for all the municipal sectors like water supply, sewerage, solid waste, roads were developed.

The secondary information coupled with primary investigations helped the in identifying the areas with non-compatible landuses, deficient services and institutional weaknesses. PMDFC has analyzed the existing information; proposed rehabilitation, upgrading of existing projects where feasible, and proposed new development projects and suggested improvements and extensions in existing infrastructure, formulate urban planning strategies and recommendations.

1.4.5 The Visioning Workshop

The planning process stems from the stakeholders vision of the town which is further translated into the tangible and concrete targets. The salient feature of this step is the visioning and prioritization workshop. Participants of the workshop were the TMA leadership, senior TMA officials, including the TMO, TOs and staff members, councilors, local representatives of provincial departments, representatives of NGOs operating in the town, representatives of civic groups such as the trade bodies. A

13 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

comprehensive presentation was given to all of the stakeholders about the fabric of the municipal infrastructure in the town. They all shared their views about the future development options and investment decisions of their town. Once the vision was agreed upon and the objectives were established, a rigorous session was organized for the selection of the priority sectors.

At the end of the workshop the statement of agreed vision, objectives and priorities was summarized in written draft and circulated among all the stakeholders.

1.4.6 Structure Plan

PMDFC in close consultation with the TMA developed the Structure Plan, identifying the growth potential for next 20 years growth and future development of Town. The Plan focused on the infrastructure projects as proposed for developing town during the Workshop held with the Town’s Stakeholders.

The Structure Plan will serve as a guideline to address the immediate development problems of town including both sequential and phased interventions for long- and short-term urban development needs of Town up to 2031-32. The Plan would also identify the land requirement for future urban expansion, subject to two considerations: Firstly the location criteria of proposed urban development activities; and second the allocation criteria of land based on the population size and socio- economic factors.

CHAPTER 2 TMA PROFILE – MALAKWAL

2.1 District Profile – Mandi Bahauddin

2.1.1 History

Due to agricultural potential of the region a Mandi town was founded in 1920 by the British Government. This was named as Mandi Bahauddin because of a nearby small village . i.e. Mandi near Pindi Bahauddin. Later on, due to the expansion of Mandi Bahauddin, Pindi Bahauddin merged in the town and became a part of Mandi Bahauddin Town.

Initially Mandi Bahauddin was declared notified area or committee in 1920. In 1937, it was declared as a small town committee. Because of its population and revenue given to the government, it is given the name of Municipal committee in 1941.

CHAPTER 3 URBAN PLANNING

Urban planning under TMA has a crucial role in guiding the present and future growth of the town. The Planning office is responsible to produce spatial plans and exercise development control for change of land uses in the town. Further it maintains a comprehensive data base and information system on TMA and is responsible to execute and manage development plans for infrastructure projects. For the entire development of the Tehsil it is mandatory to produce different maps like base map, land use map, zoning map, etc. The planning office is responsible to prepare Annual development plans and long term plans. These plans are made under the direction of Tehsil Nazim.

3.1 Situation before Planning Exercise

At the start of planning exercise, the available information with the TMAs was very limited, out dated and rudimentary. The maps were either quite old, or were not present at all. Most of the mapping was done by hand drawings. The TO(P) office main function of development control was severely hampered due to lack of information such as updated maps.

The one of the basic objective of PMSIP exercise was to build the capacity of TO(P) Office. For this purpose availability of updated maps was kept on top priority. Satellite images were obtained and developed with the help of GIS technologies. All important information regarding urban planning and infrastructure situation was put on the maps.

3.2 Mapping by PMDFC

At present, with the completion of planning exercise in Malakwal a number of maps have been prepared and handed over to the TO (P) office. It included land use, density, growth direction, water supply, sewerage, solid waste management, roads and street light maps. Moreover, for analysis purposes various maps are prepared further. e.g. density maps, service coverage maps etc. These maps are helpful in making recommendations for improved services in the town. 23 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

In further as capacity of TMA would be enhanced the soft copies will be handed over so that they could develop/improve their own maps. These maps would also be prepared in Auto Cad.

3.3 TO (P&C) Office

As the Planning office is newly created in the devolved set up, the planning practices are not common with the TMA. The most important function of the planning office is the development control and sanctioning of the building plans. There is acute shortage of staffing in TMA Malakwal. The post of TO(P&C) is lying vacant for long. There are two posts for sub engineer that are lying vacant. The additional charge is handed over to TO(I&S) for the Planning office. The planning activities are hampered due to the shortage of staff. Following table 3.1 provides staff position in Planning section of TMA.

Table 3.1: Staff Position in TO (P&C) Office (June, 2011)

3.4 Building Control

For building control activities residents submit requests with a plan and other requisite documents. Building inspector visits the site and checks if the plan is according to the site. There is a requirement that residents after completion of their buildings get a completion certificate from planning office, but it rarely occurs. There

24 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

is need of such mechanism that residents have to get the completion certificate. The building control records are manually maintained.

Residential

Malakwal is a small town that is located on a branch road from the main GT Road, near Mandi Bahauddin. The town is bounded by Rukan Road in the east and a Bypass Road in the south west. Miani Chowk is situated in the centre of the town. At this chowk, railway track splits into two distinct directions. This is an unplanned town where streets are irregular and haphazard. The area along main bazaar is purely residential. According to the land use percentages, the residential area is 34.55% of the total land use. However, the standards for the same are 55-60%. The reason for its lower percentage is that many plots within the built up area are lying vacant.

Commercial

Main bazaar Road is the most densely populated road of the town. All of the major commercial activities are clustered around it. The percentage of the commercial area in Malakwal is 6.08% of the total land uses. The recommended standard is upto 5%.

4.2 Industry

Malakwal is a very small town. Most of the reliance of the people living in the town is on agriculture. There are very few industries in the region. Some of them are rice mills, flour mills and citrus packing and storage mills.

4.3 Recommendations

Curb Disguise Unemployment

Agriculture is the main source of earning of local population. This means more than required are engaged in agriculture, hence are under employed or disguise unemployed. The marginal productivity of such labour is zero. Such unproductive labour can be removed from land without fall in agriculture output and employed on cottage or small industries.

Labour Intensive Opportunities

The economy of the town needs maximum utilization of labour intensive techniques for production of goods and services. This will draw unproductive labour from agriculture sector and put into productive channel where their marginal productivity will increase. Such policy will not only economize the use of available resources but will create larger employment opportunities.

Recreation

Recreational facilities are a focal point in enhancing the economic activity in a town. It any town has high order recreational facilities, the masses are attracted from hinter land or from adjoining town to avail the facility. These are vital for social well being of the residents of a town and at the same time a source of generation of income and employment. Moreover, small business and enterprise sprout up in such an environment. However, it is a very small town but certain interesting points are identified.

36 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

Community Development Organizations

To raise agriculture productivity by using better techniques of cultivation, better seed, fertilizer, and marketing etc .It helps in skill formation, raises average productivity, income level and size of market. It promotes more employment.

Programmes

Programmes for small towns in which local community will be provided with tools and resources to retain and expand their current businesses.

Information Centres

The labour in small towns is not aware of employment opportunities in towns and industrial areas in their hunter land. It can be done by opening information centres within the town.

Micro Credit /Financial Institutions

Development of financial institutions can help growth of agro-industry. Corporate banks, micro credit facilities, financial and investment corporations can give much impetus to the local economy of the town.

CHAPTER 6 WORKSHOP ON VISIONING AND PRIORITIZATION OF DEVELOPMENT SECTORS

Once the data was analyzed for all the sectors it provided with an understanding of the existing situation. The next step was to develop a vision for the development of the town. This establishes immediate priorities in order to achieve the desired objectives. For this purpose all the stake holders were formally gathered under one umbrella to agree a shared vision about the town. The following methodology was adopted for the prioritization process

6.1 Pre-Workshop Consultations

PMDFC held meeting with Tehsil Nazim to discuss and finalize the workshop methodology. The purpose was to develop a common understanding and build consensus about the workshop methodology and the proposed projects. The Tehsil Nazim was requested to invite the participants for workshop and make available suitable venue for it.

PMDFC briefed how the workshop would proceed, including details about formation of groups, inter-sector prioritization (i.e. roads vs water supply vs sewerage etc).

6.2 Workshop Proceedings

The work shop was held on 4th December, 08. It commenced at 10:30 and was concluded at around 1:00 p.m.

6.2.1 Workshop Participants

The number of participants was 13 The stake holders were mainly the representatives of the Tehsil Council, members of trade bodies, Union Naib Nazims and councilors.

56 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

6.2.2 The Session

A presentation was given by PMDFC on the existing situation of the town and proposed list of projects. During the presentation, the participants took a keen interest, and asked a number of questions about the working of, and already projects under taken by PMDFC. They further updated the information about the existing situation, e.g. they added projects for street lights, as it was their priority in this particular sector.

6.2.3 Group Formation

The participants were divided into 5 groups at random, but it was ensured that people form same UC may not be included in the same group. Each group comprised of 6-7 persons.

In the first round, inter-sector prioritization was done. Each group was given a list of sectors i.e. roads, water supply, sewerage etc. They were to label their priority before each sector e.g. if they thought sewerage was the most important problem of the town they were to assign 1 before sewerage, etc.

The results of the Inter sector prioritization were entered into a ‘priority matrix’. In this matrix, the group-wise sector priorities were entered as assigned by the group members. Based on the frequency of responses, the inter-sector prioritization was finalized.

57 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

6.3 Prioritized List of Sectors

Thus a prioritized list of projects was developed for TMA Malakwal, as shown below:

Table 6.1: Prioritized Projects

SECTORS PRIORITY Sub-Project Sewerage 1 Improvement/Extension of Sewerage network Roads 2 Improvement /Extension of roads Solid waste 3 Improvement /Extension of SWM Management 4 Improvement/Extension of Water supply Network Water supply Fire Fighting 5 Development of Fire Fighting System Parks 6 Development of Parks

The prioritization process calls for the road map for the allocation of resources for the TMA. It is important to mention here that in Malakwal, sewerage was one of the most important problems of the town.

The Planning process adopted rules out the selection of projects at random or biasness, rather it reflects the ground realities and is demand driven. If the projects are not need based, they are not sustainable for long period of time and become redundant without any benefit to the community or the user. Even if such projects survive, they benefit only a specific group of people. It is therefore important for Infrastructure projects to be need based and both beneficial to and acceptable to the community. To make it mandatory, the involvement of stakeholders was ensured at all stages of planning, including the process of prioritization of the development projects. After the identification of sectors in the visioning workshop and assessing the options, the next step is to finalize the strategy and Action plans.

CHAPTER 7 OUTLINE STRUCTURE PLAN

Due to rapid urbanization, the cities in Punjab are growing in a haphazard manner, without any development control. The available infrastructure in these towns is deteriorating as the population pressure is not keeping pace with the available resources for the extension of the infrastructure. These towns face the problems like incompatible land uses, unhealthy environment, and loss of amenity. Hence, an Outline Structure Plan has been devised for Malakwal. This plan identifies the growth potential in an economical and contiguous manner for future development of the town.

7.1 Brief Introduction

This plan has been prepared as a part of the planning report of Malakwal. The report indicates that the town is expanding without proper planning and development control. The Outline structure plan, thus prepared describes the strategy, outline spatial plan, together with Action plans. In essence, the strategy identifies immediate development priorities for various service sectors. The spatial plan provides general information on planned land uses and the structure of development in the town. The Action plans are related to the priority sectors and areas identified in the strategy. Each Action plan consists of a number of proposals.

The plan provides a systematic approach to address the immediate development needs as well as long term development requirements for next 20 years. The plan highlights remedial measures to solve existing problems as well as suggests ways for future systematic growth of the town.

7.2 Visioning and Priority of Stakeholders

Focus of PMSIP planning is constant input of various stakeholders in all planning stages. Initial contact was developed with TMA leadership and the relevant staff. Field data collection was done in collaboration with line TMA staff and various segments of the society. This assisted in developing broad vision for existing fabric

59 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

of the municipal services. Finally, a formal stakeholder workshop attended by elected representatives, NGOs, important citizens etc prioritized municipal services to finalize a vision for the town. This process is hence the amalgamation of technical inputs and the aspiration of the stakeholders’ improved municipal services with an effective O & M framework were deemed a vision to improve life of citizens. Further, general consensus was developed on the priority sectors that needed immediate attention. The order of importance to stakeholders for improving various municipal serves is as follows: 1. Sewerage 2. Roads 3. Solid waste management 4. Water supply 5. Fire Fighting 5. Parks Therefore, improvement in sanitation and improved sewerage is the most important need of the town followed by roads and solid waste management.

7.3 Development Plan

Having established the priorities, the next step of the Plan was to provide broad guidelines to suggest measures to control the future growth of the town. This has been determined after assessing the potentials and constraints in the existing urban set up. The plan is prepared with 20 years perspective from year 2010 to year 2030. This section of the report deals with an outline of proposals regarding;

 Identifying the growth potentials for the town as a whole so that the provision and extension of infrastructure remains economical.  Identifying gaps in exiting municipal services as well as identifying needs for the incremental population growth.  Action plans to cater for needs of present and future population in municipal services. Capacity building for O&M of the municipal services is also proposed in these Action Plans.

Development Strategy

Malakwal is a small town of Punjab The following development strategy is recommended for Malakwal; . Since the trend of growth is towards south and east, so development should be encouraged in this direction. . Decentralization, by proposing more than one growth centers in either directions. . Emphasis is made on filling the vacant pockets within the town . The development should be contiguous development and to make provision of infrastructure facilities economical. . Future residential development to follow neighborhood pattern of growth. Self contained neighborhoods, provided with all basic public and utility services, be developed. . Provision of a park in the town. . Improving the existing infrastructure, its maintenance and operation. . Provision of municipal infrastructure to the newly suggested growth corridors. . Inculcate Operational & Maintenance culture with provision of capacity building for the same.

Table 7.1: Population Projections

Year 1998 2012 2032 Incremental population for next 20 years

Population 31,258 40,626 59,079 18,453 Growth rate = 1.89 %

The population of the Malakwal according to 1998 census was 31,258 persons. The estimated population for 2032 is 59,079 persons, i.e at the end of plan period. The total area occupied by the urban uses or the built up area is 1100 acres. The incremental population is estimated to be 18,453 for next 20 years time. This has been calculated by using the growth rate 1.89 %.

61 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

7.4 Growth Direction

The city is growing in south east direction. The areas that are newly developed are Fazalabad, Sabri Mohallah. Some more private housing schemes are also being developed.

The Malakwal town is located on a very fertile tract of land. But with the passage of time, due to urbanization, new residential areas are being developed. The south eastern side has more access to transportation as two major roads like Gojra Road and Rukan Road bisect each other

7.5 Densification of the Existing Built-Up Area

Densification criteria vary from city to city. Each city has its own growth and development potential, based on economic activity, social, cultural and geographically strategic importance. Not all of the incremental population shifts towards the newly developed areas, rather some of the percentage is absorbed in the existing one. This is mainly because of the economic reasons. Its most serious consequences are, the overburdening of the existing infrastructure, therefore upgrading may be needed with the passage of time.

The density map 7.1 shows existing density in the town. Malakwal is a very small town. It has grown along the railway track. In the north of the track is the densest area. Since the dark brown area (marked A) shows this part of the town. It is the oldest part of the town, therefore it is expected that not much vertical expansion occurs. Also, the structures are deteriorated and in shabby condition. The road widths are narrow and irregular. These structures are unable to bear the load of vertical expansion. Therefore, in this area densification would be low, i.e. between 10-20 % is expected in the plan period. Light brown area (marked B) is relatively less dense area. The approximate densification would be 20-30 % that may occur in this area during the plan period. Yellow area (marked C) is sparsely populated and 50-60 % may be densification may occur in the plan period. This part of the town is recently

62 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

developing area. Here new developments are taking place. This part also determines the growth direction of the town.

63 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

Figure 7.1: Population Density Map 64 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

7.6 Land Requirements for Future Urban Expansion

To identify the area required for future growth depends upon two important criteria. First is the location criteria and the second is the allocation criteria of land. The location criteria explain the availability of land in terms of the direction of growth, with respect to physical, socio-economic factors.

The allocation is defines the density. In turn the density determines the area requirement. The proposed growth strategy recommends filling up these vacant pockets first, then opening up new areas for development.

Present built up area of the town is 1100 acres. Taking present population of 38,623 present density is 35 persons/acre. Following table indicates land requirement for residential purposes for the plan period.

Table 7.2: Land Requirements for Projected Population

Year 2010-2015 2015-2020 2020-2025 2025-2030 Total Incremental 3,987 4,378 4,808 5,280 18,453 population After taking account 2,791 3,065 3,366 3,696 12,918 densification factor of 30 % Residential Land 75 83 100 100 358 Requirement (Acres)*

* Residential density of 37 persons/acre are assumed for proposed land use plan As residential area is approximately 70 % of the total land requirement for a small town such as Malakwal, total land requirement would be 358*3/10=107+358= 465 acres.

7.7 Proposals

65 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

The strategy suggests improving the connectivity among different parts of the town and filling of the vacant pockets first. There are still vacant areas within the town. It would be most economical to develop these areas first.

First stage

 Proposal I In the first stage, the vacant pockets in the town will accommodate the growing population. The areas adjacent to the existing built up area should be filled first. Though currently, the individual residential constructions are being taking place in the south, east to some extent in the north west of the town. It would be more economical to allow areas to develop in the immediate vicinity to develop first. It would make infrastructure to be provided at the economical cost. The map of the town shows the vacant pockets

 Proposal II With the increase in traffic, the existing roads needed to be expanded and widened. The Strategy is to facilitate free movement of goods and citizens in an efficient way. The most important roads of the town are Eid gah Road,Hospital Road, Darbar Road, Abdullah Road. The importance of these roads is due to these being the main arteries of the town. These roads bifurcate the entire neighborhoods. The main stream traffic running through the town is borne by these roads. Moreover, the commercial activities are prevalent over Islam pura road, Chaipur road and main Bazar.

Mostly the traffic is slow moving with motor cycles, bicycles , chingchi, etc that is borne by the roads with exceptionally narrow widths. It has been suggested to widen these roads since the right of way at certain places allow to extend the width. In addition, these roads be carpeted along with adequate drainage and street lights Despite the resurfacing and widening of the main arteries of the town, the next proposal is to reconstruct the secondary roads passing within the neighborhoods. The improvement of these roads will assist to lessen the pressure on the main roads,

66 TMA Malakwal – Planning Report Punjab Municipal Service s Improvement Project (PMSIP)

as internal roads will channelize the traffic, avoiding the town centre. The most important radial linkages are;

Second Stage

In the second stage, when the stage one area will be fully developed, the pressure will shift to peripheral localities. The most important roads along which such pressure will develop are Islam Pura Road, Rukan Road and the road towards Gojra in the upcoming years. The proposal to accommodate population is as follows:

 Proposal III: There is a dire necessity to develop other centers so as to decentralize the population pressure over the town centre. For this reason, in the south, an institutional- commercial zone has been proposed. Since residential development is occurring adjacent to the road, shifting of the institutions here would act as another centre of different activities. This would greatly help to diversify the land use activities, lessen the pressure over old down town area. The map shows the neighborhood plan. With the development of the institutions, it has been proposed to widen the roads and development should take place keeping adequate right of way for the roads.

 Proposal IV A park has been proposed along the proposed road R1. It will be adjacent to the proposed neighborhood. It will become a central place accessible from all directions for the future growth of the town.

Proposal V: The intervening pocket between Miani Road and Islam pura Road is a delta of land. This triangular pocket of land is bounded in all the three directions by major roads. A neighborhood centre is planned in the center of this pocket.
