摘要：Improving walkability is an important aspect to consider, given growing urbanization in India and globally. Walkability has been studied as an outcome of the built environment and linked with better health outcomes and completeness of transportation network. In India, the Smart City Mission has considered improvement of non-motorized transport via projects like Smart Streets. This study is an attempt to look at one such smart street in Pune where a stretch of road segment was redesigned to facilitate pedestrian movement. This being a pilot attempt for the future street redesigning, a qualitative assessment is presented here depicting pros and cons of the same. Our initial findings indicate that despite its many obvious shortcomings at the moment, a dedicated walkability and Smart Street infrastructure is a welcome step in creating sustainable, equitable and inclusive smart cities of the future..
