Shahpur is situated on the eastern banks of Sabarmati and lies in the central zone of Ahmedabad. This ward is known as ‘Lohamandi’ (Iron market) of Ahmedabad. Nowadays several problems have cropped up in these age old small iron manufacturing units due to lack of space and high land price. So after analyzing the situation through primary and secondary survey we proposed suitable solutions.
