CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

The real challenge before planning and development of towns/cities is to have a


balanced development in all spheres of urban life: physical, social and economic in a
comprehensive manner. For this preparation of Master Plan becomes the guiding
principle for wiping out the deficits in urban infrastructure and the potentials of the
town and village.
“Master Plan (MP)” is identified as a strategic tool to achieve the objectives.
Considering the role and importance of rational and orderly growth of urban centres,
the State Government intends to streamline the development process in urban
settlements to ensure that these settlements continue to achieve their objectives of
improved efficiency and productivity. Accordingly, it is desirable to have a stringent
check on haphazard development and have an optimum land use plan for these
cities/towns.
Thiruttani is a sacred place with a unique character of, Hindu religious
institution contributing to a sizable increase in the growth of population, also economy
of the town and surrounding areas. Its importance due to the location of shrine on
Hills dedicated to Lord Subramanian temple. The celebrated shrine which has for
centuries attracted enormous number of pilgrims from all parts of India. The
pilgrimage to Tirupathi on the return Journey visits the temple of Thiruttani and pay
homage to Lord Subramanyaswamy. Thiruttani is a town in the Indian state of Tamil
Nadu. It is one of the main tourist centers in Tiruvallur district about 84 km from
Chennai. Thiruttani Murugan Temple is one of the six abodes of Lord Muruga.
Thiruthani is 15 km from Andhra Pradesh state. Nearby Famous temples are Madhur
Arulmigu Mahishasuramardhini temple, Nallatur Arulmigu Veera Anjaneya temple,
Arulmigu Arumugaswami temple and Sholingar Narasimma swamy temple.

The surrounding villages of the town are important for their agricultural
products such as vegetables and sugarcanes. The raw agricultural produce are sold and

1
transported to neighboring border state Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. This is also a
major economic potential which can be made use for creating employment
opportunities to the local committee by introducing industries based on the available
resource.

1.2 NEED FOR THE STUDY

2.4 DELINEATED STUDY AREA – TIRUTTANI LPA
The process for delineation of Tiruttani Planning Area began with analyzing
the two taluks surrounding Thiruthani Area. These taluks were Tiruttani and
Arakkonam. The basic premise of analysis is the physical, demographic, economy,
transportation and Social aspects in order to delimit the jurisdiction of the planning
area, on the basis of the parameters. These parameters are analyzed using the overlay
analysis of ArcGIS tools software. To delineate the Tiruttani Local Planning Area,
study needs to be carried out in selected 21 Panchayat Villages in Thiruthani Block
and One Panchayat Village Arakkonam Taluk. The Total number 22 Panchayat
villages in Planning Area.
Tiruttani Panchayat formed as early as 1982. As the town, the Collector
constituted a committee called Township committee. Later it is upgraded as special
grade town panchayat, consist of Thiruthani (Part), Meldevadanam (Part), Matham
(Part), Nallamguntam (Part), Kildevadanam (Part), Meldevadanam (Part),
Amirthapuram (Part) and Kumaramangalam (Part). The special grade Town
Panchayat was up graded as Grade III Municipality in 2004.
The delineated study area comprises jurisdiction of erstwhile Tiruttani Local
Planning Area and its influencing Areas. The total population of Tiruttani Local
Planning Area is 119620 out of which 44781 is urban and 74839 is rural having 2011
census, an Total Planning Area is 185 sq. Km. The outside core Area surrounding is

3.1 DEMOGRAPHY

3.1.1 INTRODUCTION
Demography is the statistical study of human population in terms of size and
structure distribution spatial changes etc. Understanding demography of an area helps
in determining current and future public needs.

3.1.2 POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS

Demography contributes in understanding changes in populations, including


how people inhabited Tiruttani and growth taking place. Social and economic
development processes and outcomes are depended upon the detailed study of
population characteristic of any planning area.
As per 2011 population of Tiruttani Planning Area is 119620 out of which
population of Town Area is 44781 which is about 37.44% of the total population,

3.1.5 POPULATION PROJECTON
Arithmetic Increase method
This method is based on the assumption that the population is increasing at a
constant rate, i.e. the rate of change of population with time is constant. From the
population data for the last 3 decades, the average increase per decade is calculated
which is then used as the design rate of increase for calculating the design population

Geometric Increase Method


In this method, it is assumed that the percentage increase in population from
decade remains constant. Therefore, the average value of the percentage increase is
calculated and the future populations are calculated at this rate.

Incremental Increase Method


In this method the average increase per decade is found out. The average
incremental increase for each decade is also found out. The future population is
calculated from the average increase and average incremental increase of population.
This method is a combination of the above two methods. The method in which the
population is to be projected is validated by the existing data.

Considering the growth drivers and in order to arrive at future population for
Tiruttani Local Planning Area, population projection was done for urban area and
rural area separately using various methods. The past growth trend was considered to
arrive at a method for projection of population in all the areas. The urban area is
expected to grow very less and compared to outside rural villages.

census 2011, the workers are classified into four categories cultivators & agricultural
laborers, household industrial workers and other workers. In Tiruttani Planning Area the
distribution of economic base into type of sector namely primary sector, secondary sector
and tertiary sector for the development of entire planning area and creation of potential
canters of developments.
The trend of the exorbitant increase in the employment in tertiary sector is 55.03%
indicative of the engagement of workers mainly in the service sector. There is a need to
balance this transformation into tertiary sector as well as primary sector for balanced
economic development.

3.3 TRANSPORTATION

3.3.1 INTRODUCTION
Tiruttani is situated on the state highway road connecting Chennai and
Tirupathi. A number of important places located within and outside the state of Tamil
Nadu are connected to Tiruttani and regular daily buses are plying from Tiruttani to
various others places. The state capitals of the two southern states viz Chennai to
Bangalore are directly connected to Tiruttani and scheduled buses are operated
between these cities to Tiruttani. Besides these the pilgrims canters Like Salam,
Pondicherry, Kanchipuram in the state of Tamil Nadu, Tirupathi, Kalashasti and
important towns in Andhra Pradesh are also directly connected to Tiruttani. There is
one railway station in Tiruttani, which is a broad gauge that connects Chennai and
Tirupathi.

3.3.2 EXISTING ROADS IN TIRUTTANI

3.3.2.1 Roads Maintained by Highways Departments

Chennai to Chittoor road is running East to West dividing the town into two halves
and road from Renigunta is meeting at the railway line crossing which is a broad
gauge and running from Arakkonam in South and to Renigunta in North. The other
important roads available within Tiruttani Municipality and their length are shown in

3.3.2.3Bus Stand

The existing bus stand located behind the Municipality Office. It consists of 12
bus bays. About 200 to 300 buses enters and leaving daily to and from surrounding
districts and neighboring state i.e., Andhra Pradesh. The bus stand is inadequate to
cater the demand since space in very limited, especially during peak hour it creates
heavy congestion. There is no proper geometrical design for smooth turning and
facilities of traffic control.

Figure: 3.3.2.3.1 Anna Bus Stand


36
Figure: 3.3.2.3.2 Existing Bus Stand Layouts

Calculation parking Bus Bay:


During peak hour (9.30 am to 10.30am) the bus enter and exit bus stand
= 20 minutes
Frequency available buses during peak hour (9.30 am to 10.30am)
= 3 times
Available bus bay = 12 no’s
To calculate number of bus bay requirement = {Available bus bay *
Frequency available buses during peak hour (9.30 am to 10.30am) }
= 12 * 3
Number of Bus Stand Capacity = 36 no’s
During peak hour (5.30pm-6.30pm) no. of Buses Entry and Exit = 75
Requirement of Bus Bay = 75/3
= 25
Demand Assessment calculation of bus bay = (Requirement of bus
bay – Available bus bay)
Demand of bus bay current situation = 25 – 12
= 13 no’s
The present Bus Stand function both mofussil and town bus services but
especially during peak hours very demand. There is creating traffic jam during festival
days and parking buses peak hour’s very demands.

37
3.3.2.4 Roads and Intersections

The carriage way width is very less in many roads and unable to carry the
present traffic volume. The parking of vehicles in front of shops accelerates the
problem by reducing speed of vehicles and sometimes traffic jam. It also pose greater
difficulty for the pedestrian and vehicular movement. The following locations
identified as problematic intersection based on high intense of traffic.

1) MPS Salai – KSM intersection


2) Bus Stand Junction
3) Akkaiya Naidu – MPS Salai intersection
4) Akkaiya Naidu – Chittoor Road intersection
5) Arakkonam Road Junction
6) Railway Crossing / Bye –Pass Road junction

Fig: 3.3.2.4.1 Bye Pass Junction Fig: 3.3.2.4.2 Arakkonam Road Junction

As the shops encroaching the road spaces. The width of carriage way reduces
and resulted in creating bottle neck for easy movement of vehicles. The present roads
mostly in damaged condition and the town is reeling under lack of parking facilities
especially it needs large area for parking the vehicles.

38
3.3.2.5 Parking

Authorized parking for tourist bused are provided near choultry. The present
capacity of this parking area is 12 buses only but nearly 26 are parked on the road.
The excess buses are parked on the road opposite to choultry which causes difficulty
for the movement of vehicular traffic as well as for pedestrians.

3.3.2.6 Pedestrian Path

There is one foot path which starts near choultry consists of 365 steps. During the
months pilgrims flow is very easy. But during the peak months especially during Adi
Kiruthigai the pedestrian foot path are very crowed. The devasthanam authorities’
paths are completely encroached by the shops.

About 90% of the pilgrims reach Lord Subramanyaswamy temple from


Tiruttani by buses, 7% by car, taxi, two wheeler and 3% by walk. During Adi
Kruthigai festival time pilgrims find it very difficult to walk due to heavy crowed.

3.3.3 TRANSPORTATION IN TIRUTTANI

Tiruttani Railway Station is located near to kamala theatre. At present 30% of


pilgrim’s are coming by train. Generally pilgrims coming by train go to devasthanam
bus stand that present at choultry II from where they will go to hill temple to worship
Lord Subramanyaswamy.

There is one bus stand from where bus services are operated to Tiruttani from
various places. At present 72% of pilgrims reach Tirupathi by bus. About 143 bus
services operated daily from Tiruttani to other places and vice versa. Beside these
about 40 to 50 bus services are being operating from Tiruttani to various others nearby
places i.e. Sholingar, Nagari, Pallipet and Arakkonam. The transport operation of
public and private sectors are shown on Table No 3.3.3.1

The share of public and private is the ratio of 62:38. Out of the total trips, 28%
of trips are operated towards Chennai, 25% of trips operated towards Tirupathi and
remaining trips cover the other direction.

3.3.4 TRANSPORTATION PROBLEM IN TIRUTTANI


 Due to inadequate parking area excess tourist buses are parked in the opposite
road to choultry II is and there is creating problem for free flow of vehicles and
pedestrians.
 The Anna bus stand can occupy only 12 buses at a time, hence it creates bottle
neck, congestion, Traffic hold up and delay etc.

40
 The Kamaraj market is only market for entire Tiruttani town and its
surrounding area. The available facilities & number of shops are niot adequate.
Hence road side shops are developed reducing road width resulting in traffic
problem.
 Tiruttani being a pilgrim center attracts a large number of vehicles but there is
no sufficient parking space. The situation becomes worst during the festival
season.
 The intersection of roads is not well designed, no proper signs and Marking and
Channelization.
 Similarly to regulate the pedestrian movement road marking which include
Traffic lanes, Symbols Words, Object Marking, Road divide or other devices
are absent.

3.3.5 ANALYSIS OF TRAFFIC VOLUME COUNT AT INTERSECTION


Traffic Volume Count is recording /counting of number of vehicles passing
through a road over a period of time. It is usually expressed in terms of Passenger Car
Unit (PCU) and measured to calculate Level of Service of the road and related
attributes like congestion, carrying capacity, V/C Ratio, identification of peak hour or
extended peak hour

The study of Classified Traffic Volume Count is to understand factors that form the
basis of:

a) Checking the efficiency/saturation of the road network by comparing current


traffic ….volume with the calculated capacity or by identifying level of service

b) Establishing the use of the road network by vehicles of different categories, traffic
….distribution PCU/vehicle
c) Need of median shifting or road widening
The survey is carried out in Highway department intersections at Tiruttani

It is found to Intersection junction of all roads is 2- way land and undivided


road in PCU value vehicles is 1500. To Analysis of Volume per Capacity index (V/C
Ratio) is all the intersection of junction of value more than one. Therefore
improvement all the intersection for 4- way lane and 6-way lane divided roads.

Calculation: Projected Traffic Volume Survey

As pre IRC Recommendation, formula is Pn = P0 {(1 + r)n}

Where, Pn is Projected Traffic Volume,

P0 - is as per base year of Traffic Volume,

r - is annual growth rate assumption (8 – 10 %)

n - is number of year

42
Calculation: V/C Ratio

The practical capacity PCU value of assumption

i. Two way lane undivided road is 750 PCU


ii. Two way lane divided road is 1500 PCU

3.4.4 EXISTING AND PROJECTED HOUSING NEED AND DEMAND


While dealing with housing, it is necessary to clearly distinguish between
housing need and its demand. According to ―URDPFI GUIDELINES, MINISTRY
OF URBAN DEVELOPMENT the definition for need and demand has been given.

‘Need’ refers to inadequacy of existing provisions when compared with


socially acceptable norms.

‘Demand’ is an economic concept wherein standard an amount of housing


demand is related to household‘s income and ability today.

Housing Need and Demand Calculation for 2018:
Population for 2018 = 131197
Existing Housing for 2011 = 29450
Need for Housing = Population for 2018/Household Size
(Let assuming HH size is 4) = 131197/4
= 32799
Demand of Housing = Need for Housing – Existing Housing for
2011
= 32799 – 29450
= 3349
Requirement of Land = Population for 2018/Density PPH
(Let assuming Population density Person per Hectare is 100)
= 131197/100
= 1312 Hectare
Existing Residential land = 909 Ha
Residential Land Requirement for future = 1312 – 909
= 403 Hectare.

3.5.1.3 WATER SUPPLY SCENARIO IN RURAL AREA

The water supply in rural areas within the planning area is managed by the
Rural Water Supply System department. There is no problem drinking water supply
through pipelines, also providing excess of water supply in rural village. The majority
of the rural population is depending on various ground water sources and tube wells.

About 5.88 MLD of water is supplied for rural village area with the help of
ground water source. The other sources of water in the rural area include OHT’s
capacity of 10000, 30000, 60000 and 1000000 litres per capacity of tanks are located
in various parts of the Rural Area. These are the main source of water supply for

3.5.1.5 WATER SUPPLY IMPLEMENTATION MECHANISM

There is an additional requirement of 17.97 MLD (existing supply 13.16 MLD)


water to meet the drinking water demand of Tiruttani Planning Area by horizon year
2038. As ground water potential of the area appears reasonably enough to support the
drinking water needs, the present trend of relying solely on it may continue. But, apart
from providing individual tube wells, a system of collector wells (cluster of tube
wells) with an arrangement for treating the raw ground water is recommended for safe
drinking water. Majority of the drinking water demand can be met using the
surface/sub-surface flow of River Nanthi as a source of supply through collector
wells/intake wells.

53
Action Plan

 Planning, design and implementation of a sustainable water supply scheme


mainly based on surface/sub-surface/intake wells water supply from the river
Nanthi and ground water Covering the entire planning area with a continuous
water supply system assuring 24hr supply with adequate pressure in the
distribution system even at the tail ends.
 Controlled use and management of ground water assuring treatment with
disinfectants before distribution.
 Public awareness against misuse of water.
 Adequate reforms so as to balance the O&M cost with the revenue out of the
water supply distribution.

54
3.5.2 DRAINAGE

3.5.2.1 INTRODUCTION

In Tiruttani the drainage system consists of natural drains and man-made drains
along the roads. The road side drains are either pucca or kutcha. The entire drainage
system is open in Tiruttani planning area. These drains discharge all waste water to
minor drains, which finally discharges into river Nanthi.

3.5.2.2TOPOGRAPHY

Tiruttani is located along the river Nanthi and the general topography of the
town is a gentle slope from east to west. The variations between the altitudes are 249
feet. The river part is higher elevation of 348 - 470 m whereas it elevation reduces to
101 - 145 m while moving northern and southern side.

3.5.2.3 DRAINAGE SYSTEM

Tiruttani has no underground drainage system. But there are open drainages up
to 40 km. further this can be divided in two category namely Pucca drainage and
Kutcha drainage to a length of 24 km and 16 km respectively. It serves very small area
but major area to covered by drainages. The existing drainage is maintained engage
three drainage cleaners. However the drainage near temple area i.e. from ward 12 to
19 respectively.

3.5.2.4 CRITICAL ISSUES OF CONCERN

 Lacks proper and efficient drainage system in both urban and rural areas.
About 16.5 % of the total road network is covered with drains against the
standard of 80 % in urban areas.
 The low lying areas along with Nanthi River lack drainage system hence these
areas are highly prone to water logging situations.
 Most of the drains are choked with solid waste and causing water logging
situation in many of the residential areas.

55
 Storm water drains of Tiruttani planning area have functioned as carrying
sewage.
 Further due to absence of proper sewerage system and lack of awareness
sewage from residential areas is discharging into drains.
 The available drainage system of the Tiruttani is not properly and frequently
cleaned. Majority of drains are cleaned twice in a year before the monsoon or
on complaints. Heavy silting of drains resulting into overflow of water and
water logging in rainy season.

56
3.5.3 SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT

3.5.3.1 INTRODUCTION

The solid waste materials in cities are the natural outcome of human activities.
Most of our cities and municipalities in third world countries like India is a major
concern of the government due to the health problems associated with improper
disposal of waste. The rapid growth of population and urbanization decreases the non-
renewable resources and disposal of waste matter and toxic waste haphazardly are
some of the major environmental issues posing threats to the existence of human
being.

The most common problems associated with improper management of solid


waste include diseases transmission, fire hazards, odor nuisance, atmospheric and
water pollution, aesthetic nuisance and economic losses. Waste disposing is an
important part of waste management system, which requires much attention to avoid
environmental pollution. Only major cities have some sort of waste disposal system.
In this study we did a identifying a suitable site for solid waste disposal in Tiruttani
municipality and Outside of panchayat village in planning area.

3.5.3.2 AIM AND OBJECTIVES

The study aimed at understanding the current problems of waste disposal in


Tiruttani local planning area and suggest best possible site for waste disposal to
identified area.
3.5.3.3 EXISTING SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT STATUS
In these towns the Bio-degradable contents are high and forms nearly 68% and
recyclables forms nearly 45%. The primary collection takes place with the help of
push carts and tricycles. The secondary collection takes place through tractors and
TATA ace. The waste is then taken to the landfill site where the bio-degradable are
converted to manure in the compost yard and the remaining is dumped on site. Half of
the sanitary workers are employed through the government and the remaining is out
sourced from the Self-help groups.

57
Tiruttani municipality generates 22 MT of Solid Waste per day out of this
nearly 20 MT of the Solid Waste being collected, transported and disposed daily,
which works to per capita generation of 410 gms /day. The total garbage collected
constitutes 48% of the domestic wastes 42% commercial wastes and 10% of
construction wastes. The Urban Local Body also carry out weekly mass waste
cleaning programme to clear the left out wastes by making extra vehicle trips in the
town. At present Compost Yard/ Dumping Yard are located at periyarnagar with in the
town in an extent of 1.50 acres. Which are not sufficient for waste disposal and also
projected for future.
The collection efficiency and garbage generated in the Tiruttani municipality
town and Outside of panchayat village is given below.

3.5.3.5 SCHEMES AND IMPLEMENTATION
Swachh Bharat Mission
The details of Compost / Recyclable waste generated in SWM village
panchayat in Tiruttani taluk .As per the Policy Note (2015-2016) of Rural
Development and Panchayat Raj Department of Tamil Nadu Village Panchayats have
been identified for implementation of solid waste management.
Implementation:
New dumping yard has been identified at pothadurpet Road and Tirupathi
Bypass Road. There is 2 km away from the town center, which occupy area is 2.5
acres.
 Currently in both the urban and rural areas Solid Waste is managed efficiently
and the recyclables recovered and compost generated is sold.
 Hence the landfills present in the urban areas will be adequate for the next 20
years.
 The streets also cleaned regularly whereas in panchayat village and town waste
was witnessed along the roadside. Hence waste from the roadside should be
cleared on a regular basis.
 As per the Government Order (Ms).No.69 dated 16.06.2016 the following are
mandatory at the Village panchayat Level.
 Door to Door collection of waste.
 Treatment facilities such as compost pits, segregation cum
storage shed to be provided at the Panchayat / Cluster Level.
 Dumping pit to be provided at the Panchayat / Cluster Level.
 Workers engaged under Mahatma Gandhi National Rural
Employment Generation Scheme.
 Solid waste Management Committee to be formed at the
Panchayat level.
Hence SWM facilities should be formed at the Municipalities and Panchayat level
landfill can be identified.

3.6 SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE
3.6.1 EDUCATION
3.6.1.1INTODUCTION
The quality of life in any area depends upon the availability and accessibility to
quality social infrastructure. It refers to the facilities and mechanisms that ensure
education, health care and recreational improves the physical quality of life and
human wellbeing that are pivotal for increased productivity.
Education and health sectors are the most important and constitute the social
infrastructure that forms the foundation for economic and human development. In the
Millennium Development Goals (MDG) also, education and health are major
challenges. Thus both education and health are important components of the Human
Development Index. The proximity to schools has also been analyzed based on service
area and road accessibility.
3.6.1.2 EXISTING EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES
Educational Facilities ranging from primary schools to institutes of higher
learning in Tiruttani have been set and run by government as well as by private
institutions. Some of the important institutes providing various courses at graduate
and post-graduate level include GRT institute of Engineering & Technology,
Subramanian Government Art & Science College, Saravana ITI and Tiruttani
Polytechnic College etc.
3.6.1.3 FUTURE REQUIREMENTS OF EDUCATION
Considering the population growth to 163355 by horizon year 2038, the
existing number of educational facilities at various levels will have to be augmented.
In terms of schools, by 2038 the maximum requirement will be of pre-primary
schools, where 65 more will have to be added to the existing 118. In higher education
facilities, there is a need to setup more professionally institutes providing courses in
engineering and Polytechnic College.
The assessment of future requirements for educational facilities has been done
based on the recommended norms specified by the URDPFI guidelines and given in

3.7 TOURISM

3.7.1 INTRODUCTION
Tourism is vital for every place, due to the income generated by the
consumption of goods and services by tourists, the taxes levied on businesses in the
tourism industry, and the opportunity for employment and economic advancement by
working in the industry.

3.7.2 TEMPLE AND FESTIVALS IN TIRUTTANI TOWN

3.7.2.1 Subramanyaswamy Koil

Lord Murugan’s SIX PADAIVEEDU (Tiruttani ranks prominent as the crown


jewel of Lord). As its very name indicates, when propitiated the lord in this hole
shrine. He blessed devotees with mental peace and bodily happiness, his righteous
indignation towards the ASURAS for their currently is used to have been quelled and
cooled at this place. Which is therefore known as Shanthipuri (Above of Peace)? As
the prayers and desires of the devotes who worship Lord ‘Thanikesan’ on this hill with
unservicing faith and interse devotion are fulfilled in no time, this hill also called
“Thanikasalam”, When Lord came to this hill after wedding Goddess VALLI at
Vallimalai, she implored him to enlighten her on the importance and greatness of this
hill.

Now Tiruttani is famous as a pilgrims centre. The temples cover an area of one
Hectare and faces east and is square in shape with four gopurams. There are five
gopurams and devotes have to ascend a flight of 365 steps to reach the temple, which
is denoting 365 days in year. Sir Valli and Sri Deivanayaki, wives of Lord
Subramanya and Sir Apthsagaya Vinayagar are located is separate Garbagrahas in the
temple complex.

The Lord Subramanya’s moolavar is 3 to 6 inches in height and is known as


Murugar and Gnanasakthidarar. The Tamil version of Sthalapuranam written by sri
Kachiappa Munivar which is known as “Thanikaiprranam” and the Sanskirt version is
known as Kallargiri Mahatmiyam.
