SYSTRA India is proud to serve as the Project Support Consultant to the Directorate of Town & Country Planning, Government of Chhattisgarh. Leveraging our decade-long expertise in providing PSC services to state and urban local bodies, we are delivering integrated, GIS-driven planning support that aligns with the state’s vision for sustainable, equitable, and mobility-centric urban-rural growth.

Our multidisciplinary team is actively engaged in end-to-end technical assistance to strengthen the Directorate’s planning capabilities across Chhattisgarh. The scope encompasses:

  • Preparation of Proposed Maps – Development of proposed land-use and development plans in line with statutory guidelines, followed by technical presentations to the State Level Committee
  • Physical Survey – Comprehensive ground-truthing and field investigations
  • Data Collection – Multi-source primary and secondary data gathering on land use, demographics, infrastructure, and socio-economic parameters
  • Traffic Survey – Detailed traffic volume, origin-destination, and mobility pattern studies
  • Base Map Study – High-accuracy base map preparation using latest surveying instruments and ArcGIS technology

Key features of the project

This engagement directly supports the Directorate’s mandate to foster planned and systematic urban and rural growth across Chhattisgarh through the following outcomes:

  • Implementation of comprehensive, integrated planning frameworks for orderly urban and rural development
  • Elimination of haphazard and unauthorised constructions through robust regulatory mechanisms
  • Optimum utilisation of scarce urban land resources for maximum public benefit
  • Creation of enabling conditions that encourage high-quality, planned construction activities
  • Strategic planning and provisioning of essential urban infrastructure (roads, utilities, open spaces, and public amenities)
  • Focused interventions to serve the basic needs of economically weaker sections, with special emphasis on upgrading urban slum habitats
  • Environmental upgradation measures to create healthy, sustainable, and liveable habitats for present and future generations
