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.

The proposal would be defined primarily based on voice of Chennai residents. An extensive citizen engagement programme is established by Corporation of Chennai to document the views and concernsfor the same.

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 last date to submit your comments is 15th November, 2015.

Citizens should be able to go to any of these centers instead of to government offices and seek video conference based face to face with government and civic officials.Facilities should be developed to enable submission of digitally signed petitions and other documents.

Using this experience divert road systems in citizen cultural activity areas to go underground, and make the ground level entirely free for pedestrian access. Suggest following locations for initial implementation: Panagal Park, Gandhi Mandap area, Marina Beach/ Anna Square, Vadapalani.

ONE OF THE BIGGEST DRAWBACKS OF CITY LIFE IS THE EXPLODING VEHICLE POPULATION LEADING TO DELAYED MEETINGS AND LATE ATTENDANCE AT SCHOOLS AND COLLEGES. A SMART CITY WILL PROBABLY BE ABLE TO DEAL WITH IT WITH A PLANNED NETWORK OF VARIOUS MODES OF TRANSPORT
