Abstract

As in continuously the scenario of urban development in India we need to consider that there is also nonstop growth of the amalgamation of problems in transportation sector like the private vehicles, car ownership, congestion on roads, CO2 and GHG emissions, inappropriate land use integration, inappropriate walkways or pedestrian and cycle tracks, road accidents, infrastructure issues etc, in tier 1 and tier 2 cities of India. SUMP is a comprehensive approach to address all those issues and meet the mobility requirements of cities' employees and businesses (GmbH, 2019.). Having thus observed certain elements, the possibilities of walkability for food in the city are urgently needed to be identified. In this article, an attempt was made in order to find ways to turn Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities into a walking city where more people choose to travel as a first option for short trips and for longer journeys by walking and public transit rather than by using personal automated cars (Dibyendu Bikash Bhattacharyyaa, 2013). This paper has a few literature reviews to explain the idea of walking capability for developing SUMPs for Indian contexts and to complete all this literature core problems and challenges. This study shows the possibilities for movement and associated problems were studied and addressed, and there are plenty of ways for cities to move about. This paper provides some guidelines for SUMPs in the cities of India, Tier 1 and Tier 2.
