Corporation of Chennai is preparing a proposal towards Smart City Challenge which would include city wide smart urban solutions as well as identification of areas within the city for its implementation.

Residents may post their opinion and ideas on civic services such as transport, parking, water supply, sanitation, energy, housing, IT solutions,health, education, safety and security. Your views, opinion and solutions on urban issues faced by Chennai would not only support a better tomorrow for Chennaites, it will also make Chennai a strong contender for getting shortlisted as one of the first 20 cities in India to implement Smart City Solutions in Phase 1.

Chennai citizen and community is its biggest strength. Let’s participate to make this proposal inclusive and meaningful for every common man, every citizen.

The development of older cities regenerating themselves as smart. In much more bottom-up fashion, which include many cities who are embedding new ICT as a matter of course. Examples of best practice are to be found in world cities where spontaneous developments of new technologies are emerging in places such as Silicon Alley (New York City), Silicon Roundabout (London) and Akihabara (Tokyo).

In-vehicle sensors will record the location and severity of a pothole or other road hazard misaligned drain or manhole covers, for instance – and push that data into a cloud-based computing platform. From there, the data is available in real time to other connected cars so drivers can avoid making the same mistake, as well as to local street repair authorities to help identify and prioritize maintenance.

need to be designed to cope with monsoonal inundations, and create urban environments where people can move in the shade of trees, shelter from rain, and where buildings promote the flow of air throughout the urban environment. In tropical cities trees and plants grow readily; these become the defining feature of great tropical cities – abundant green and cooling shade creates a beautiful urban setting.
