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.

Parking: There could be a cloud based city parking map which should display parking space available in different locations. Advantages:- 1. Local Commuters can spot their parking place well advance rather than going to the destination and struggling to find a place. 2. This could reduce the travel time and cost to run the car/any vehicle to find a place to park and will also reduce traffic on the tight roads like market places, etc. 3. This approach could be extended to a city traffic map.

Smart Electricity: Automated electric meters or adapters to existing electric meters to connect to internet to push energy consumption data from every home in the city. Everyday push notifications or SMS alerts on daily consumption to the customers. Analyze customers consumption pattern and providing Electricity in different schema as the GSM Internet packs. This could help in understand the consumers energy consumption pattern more precisely and also help to reduce electricity theft.

1. Bring in 100% online services wherever possible. People should be able to get confidence in using these services. 2. Helpline in all the departments should function as promised. 3. Plan local community involvement in development and maintenance of common facilities like street lights, cleaning of streets, safety of locals, etc. This can be experimented with smaller groups at various areas of city. Once this system works, this will automatically spread within city.

1.smart grids installation should be encouraged as energy is something which is scarce today. 2.toll gates with automatic collection based on the RFID tags should be used,as it would save time. 3.billboards with NFC tags through which purchase of an item can be made just by scanning the tag with mobile should be kept everywhere. 4.houses with elderly people must be connected with the nearest police station so that in case of any emergency the information can be sent.

1.smart dust bins which recycles the garbage and also sends message to the nearest garbage collection vehicle to come and empty the bin,should be used this would be efficient as more people would use it just to see the machine in action. 2.density based traffic lights as opposed to the current timer based should be used as it would obviously save time and also would prevent people from jumping signals. 3.installation of solar panels have to be encouraged,and net meter system should be used.

In flats or seperate buildings it should be mandatory to have rain water harvesting.There are no flats or houses without A.C,or other equipments which run for 24 hours.The water that comes out of the plants will be several buckets from each equipment.just like rain water harvesting we make provision that is discharged from these plants water may reach the rain water harvesting channels to recharge the soil.
