Shahpur, located within the Core Walled City zone under AMC’s jurisdiction, is a vibrant area blending heritage with urban growth. It has a dense mix of residential and commercial spaces, with a complex street network that offers connectivity but causes congestion. Transit hubs, Shahpur Darwaja and Lal Darwaja Bus Depot ensure good access, though poor walkability, safety issues, and encroachments remain challenges. Limited open spaces push activities onto streets, creating a lively community. Economic disparities affect transport choices, with formal sector households favouring private vehicles, while informal workers face constraints. Shahpur reflects the balance between heritage, growth, and infrastructure needs.
