Urban Transition in Juna Vadaj

Juna Vadaj, situated near the Sabarmati Riverfront along Ashram Road, is a historic precinct that showcases Ahmedabad's urban evolution. Once predominantly residential, it has transitioned into a blend of organic and planned settlements. The street networks create distinct boundaries, influencing development patterns. Over time, organic neighborhoods have turned into slums, serving as an entry point for migrants. Recent urban initiatives, including metro connectivity, riverfront redevelopment, and slum rehabilitation, have driven changes in land use, with some areas becoming mixed-use and commercial hubs. Despite these advancements, challenges in walkability, inclusivity, and waste management persist, reflecting the complexities of its transitional growth.
