The
Sabarmati
Riverfront
is
a
waterfront
development
project
situated
along
the
banks
of
the
Sabarmati
River
in
Ahmedabad,
Gujarat,
India.
The
project
was
initiated
in
the
mid-1990s
and
completed
in
2012,
with
the
aim
of
reclaiming
and
rejuvenating
the
riverfront
as
a
public
space.
The
Sabarmati
Riverfront
Development
Corporation
(SRFDCL)
was
established
to
oversee
the
project,
which
involved
the
construction
of
a
11.5
km
long
promenade
along
the
river,
as
well
as
parks,
gardens,
public
plazas,
and
cultural
facilities.
The
project
also
included
the
creation
of
a
new
river
channel
and
the
construction
of
42
bridges
to
improve
connectivity
across
the
city.
The
riverfront
promenade
is
divided
into
several
zones,
each
with
its
own
distinct
character
and
features.
The
lower
promenade
is
designed
for
pedestrian
use,
with
walking
paths,
seating
areas,
and
landscaped
gardens.
The
upper
promenade
is
designed
for
vehicular
traffic
and
includes
parking
facilities,
as
well
as
cycling
and
jogging
tracks.
The
Sabarmati
Riverfront
project
has
transformed
the
riverfront
into
a
vibrant
public
space,
attracting
thousands
of
visitors
every
day.
It
has
also
helped
to
mitigate
the
risk
of
flooding
in
the
city
and
improve
the
overall
quality
of
life
for
residents.
The
project
has
won
several
awards
for
its
innovative
design
and
successful
implementation.
