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.

Vision of smart cities should be an ecologically healthy city. Eco-Cities are places where people can live healthier and economically productive lives while reducing their impact on the environment. It work to harmonize existing policies with their natural resources and environmental assets. Eco-Cities strive to engage all citizens in collaborative and transparent decision making, while while being mindful of social equity concerns.

10.Teaching the citizens to segregate the garbage will make the biogas plants a success. 11.Storm water drains are clogged because of the garbage, which has to be cleaned before rainy season. The main problem is because of the people throwing garbage all over the roads, fine has to be imposed and they have to be punished -like cleaning the street for one week. This will surely stop the people from throwing the garbage all over.

Plant more trees,make Chennai greener. At all road junctions,where 3or4roads meet provide small"Island"of bushes in the centre with traffic signals. Venders ,shop keepers should not occupy footpaths.,pedestrians must be able to walk freely instead of coming down to roads to walk risking their lives. Two wheelers are parked haphazardly on both sides of the roads, m asking the roads smaller, preventing smooth flow of traffic.This must be prevented. Provide more of zebra crossing at busy road

6.Cleaning of lakes has to be done, lots of new building are coming up in lakes which has to be stopped immediately. 7.All types of transportation has to be unified for easy transportation. 8.Expanding the roads in ECR[near Thiruvanmiyur RTO has to be implemented really fast, this is causing lot of problems for the pedestrians and there by many accidents as well]. 9.Setting up more biogas plants in different localities[like perungudi etc] will solve the garbage problem.

Encourage people to use cycles and make people to walk which can be done only by allocating separate tracks for cycle and walking tracks respectively. 8. Proper and futuristic planning must be done to cater the needs of the ever increasing working population in Chennai atleast for the next 50 years from now.

4.Unification of various transportation must be done swiftly. 5.Public transportation must be improved and developed in a very rapid scale. Metro rail must cover the greater chennai also. OMR must definitely have metro rail facility which will reduce the usage of 2 wheelers and 4 wheelers to a great extent thereby reducing the carbon foot print.
