Planning & Design of Road Infrastructure in Hilly Region

The studio introduces the process of planning and design of road infrastructure in hilly region. In doing so, the studio explores through various activities the concepts of planning and designing of a road in hilly region and attempts to perform these activities on the case of a hilly road in the Taranga region of Gujarat, India, for which we assess both the existing alignment as well as an alternative potential alignment that could link the Taranga hilltop to the nearest state highway. In doing so, we were exposed to various concepts, skills, code provisions and ground realities that aid them in making decisions about the potentialities and limitations of various alternative routes.
