In earlier times, stormwater in the cities had
natural pathways to eventually find its way
to discharge points or underground. With
the rapid urbanisation and development,
stormwater has started appearing as a
concern and hence requires management.
Ahmedabad witnesses problems of
waterlogging, flash floods, with minimal
groundwater recharge every time it rains.
The city assessment was an effort to
understand the concerns in detail and there the very origin which is addressed through
our study.
Sponge open spaces package caters to the problem of waterlogging and simultaneous
groundwater depletion by absorbing
stormwater through the selected public
open spaces of the city. This is done
through the creation of a comprehensive mechanism that weaves through innovative
institutional, technical, financial, policies
and programs aspects for Ahmedabad
city. The pilot demonstration is done for a
brownfield and greenfield site.
