Draft Master Plan 2040 includes 3 Special Development Zones

The draft master plan for 2040 includes the establishment of Special Development Zones (SDZ) aimed at planned development in specific areas, accounting for approximately 1.5 per cent of the proposed land use. Within this plan, three special zones, namely A, B, and C, have been designated for specific projects. These zones will accommodate public projects outlined in the master plan or other significant projects of importance to the corporation or government.

Special zone A is designated for the creation of a mobility hub, specifically a multi-mode mobility hub at Kochuveli, covering an estimated area of 105 acres. The objective of this proposal is to develop suitable land for the expansion of the medical college campus. In special zone B, approximately 22.5 acres have been allocated for the expansion of Thiruvananthapuram Medical College.

Special zone C, covering around 274 acres, aims to address the lack of available land for project execution. The document highlights that with proper connectivity, the land earmarked under special zone C could be utilized for public use and contribute to overall development.

The proposed location for the mobility hub is near Oruvathilkotta, chosen due to its advantageous geographical position. The area is flanked by NH 66 on the eastern side and Kochuveli railway station on the western side, while the airport is approximately 6km away. Access to the airport can be facilitated through the NH via shuttle services or by making the Parvathy Puthanar Canal navigable for inland water transport. The privately-owned land falls under the Kadakampally revenue village.

Similarly, the privately-owned land allocated for special zone B, designated for the expansion of the medical college, is situated in the Cheruvakkal village. The master plan proposes to set aside approximately 25 acres of land adjacent to the existing campus to cater to the development of the medical college. Additionally, accessibility to the campus will be improved through measures such as road widening, junction improvement, and the construction of flyovers.

Special zone C encompasses 0.5 per cent of the total corporation area, requiring the acquisition of land from 23 revenue villages to execute planned projects. The master plan designates 274 acres across 71 wards for special zone C, with land parcels ranging from 0.39 acres to 12 acres, depending on availability.

Given the current planning timeframe of 20 years, the creation of a land depository to accommodate present and future projects is deemed essential, as explained in the document's justification for special zone C.
