*/ /*-->*/Background
South Thimphu Urban Planning
ADB PROJECT:
Unprecedented urban growth coupled with inadequate urban infrastructure has resulted in a shortfall of basic urban services for Bhutan s urban residents. Infrastructure requirements across urban centers vary, but access to water, sanitation, solid waste management, and urban transport are often inadequate.
Multi Level Car Park
Thimphu City, the capital city of Bhutan, is experiencing increased levels of traffic and congestion due to wider car ownership and usage.
City Address System
The need for city addressing is critical for efficient functioning of Thimphu, owing to its size and ongoing rapid pace of urban development. Addressing system is evidently crucial for navigational purposes but even the most basic service requires locational information for effective and efficient service delivery. The brunt of a poorly designed system is borne by the Government as well as the citizens, which was alarmingly felt during the COVID-19 lockdowns.
