A new state administration was set up to govern the new state, and the development of a new administrative center, Amaravati Capital City, was announced. The site of the new capital city was finalized by the Government of AP at a location of great historical significance, strategically selected given the area’s economic potential, good access to a skilled labor workforce and water to cater to a growing urban population. The nearest cities to the new Capital City are Vijayawada at a distance of 30 km, and Guntur at a distance of 18 km. The Capital Region, is characterized by strong network of transport infrastructure via rail (Vijayawada and Guntur cities have major railway stations), roads (the NH-16 and the NH-65 pass through the region), and a domestic airport near Vijayawada city (proposed to be converted into an international airport). Further, the region is located in proximity of a proposed sea port in Machilipatnam. The economy of the Capital Region is primarily driven by agricultural (production of crops including cotton, sugar-cane, pulses, spices, etc.) and service sectors (trading, construction, hospitality, etc.). The industrial activity in the region is limited to upstream manufacturing and characterized by disorganized industrial units across sectors such as food processing, textile, non-metallic minerals, pharmaceuticals, aquaculture, etc. Amaravati City and the surrounding region is also known for the perennial Krishna river, scenic islands and various religious and cultural heritage sites such as Durga temple, Buddhist Stupa, Undavalli Caves, Bhavani temple, Narasimhaswamy temple, Dharanikota, etc. At the time of the announcement of the Capital City the area predominantly consisted of agricultural fields, mainly with commercial crops. Amaravati City is spread across 25 villages in three mandals (Thulluru, Mangalagiri and Tadepalli) of Guntur District. In 2011, the population in the area was almost 100,0001. The Government of Andhra Pradesh directed the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (APCRDA) to undertake development schemes in the Capital City area and accordingly the Capital City Development Project is under implementation. The World Bank supported – Amaravati Sustainable Capital City Development Project – ASCCDP (the project) – is aimed at providing select urban infrastructure in designated locations of Amaravati Capital City, and to develop capacity of its urban governance institutions. The total budget for the project is

Research archive 3. Project outputs 1. INTRODUCTION On June 2, 2014, Andhra Pradesh (AP) was divided to create the new state of Telangana, the result of a long-drawn movement for a separate state. Under the terms of the bifurcation, Hyderabad would remain the joint capital of both states for ten years, but the newly elected Chief Minister of the residual state, N. Chandrababu Naidu, wanted to construct a new capital city and shift the administration out of Hyderabad as soon as possible. After much debate, a centrally located site in Guntur district was selected for the project – an agricultural area just across the Krishna River from Vijayawada (the second largest city in residual AP). To achieve his ambition of creating a well-planned, ‘world-class’ city, Naidu requested the Singapore government to help design the master plan. By February 2015, over 30,000 acres of agricultural land had been assembled through a land pooling scheme, and by early 2016 six large administrative blocks had already been completed and the process of moving government staff to ‘Amaravati’, as the new capital has been named, had begun.
