The approval process for projects can be a time-consuming affair, with various factors contributing to the delays. For instance, the submission or isolated applications and the use of manual approval processes can slow down the process and increase the risk of errors. Additionally, coordinating with different departments can further complicate the process, leading to further delays. These delays can have significant consequences, including an over-assessment of risks and delays, an increase in overall project cost, and the need for higher risk cushioning. One particular cost that is affected is the variation of rates with a clear right-of-way (RoW) compared to the current situation. In projects where RoW is unclear, a minimum of 3% of the total project cost can be lost due to inefficiencies. For example, in a 100 Crore project, inefficient RoW management could result in a loss of 3 Crore, which could have been saved if the approval process were streamlined and well-coordinated. Thus, it is crucial to develop effective strategies to minimize the risks and delays associated with the approval process for projects.

Planning
- Creation of detailed network plan (GIS) of existing utilities w.r.t attributes. E.g. depth, diameter etc.
Compilation of the data and technical issues for creating a common platform.
Data to be compiled and digitized by using a GPR survey in the city.
The project is at the proposal stage only.
The formulation of right-of-way (RoW) norms can be significantly improved through the use of LiDAR (Light imaging Detection and Ranging) and GPR (Ground Penetrating Radar) survey techniques. These technologies provide accurate and reliable data that can be used to formulate RoW norms based on different road categories and widths. With LiDAR, high-resolution 3D images of the terrain and roadways can be obtained, allowing for a detailed analysis of the surrounding areas. Similarly, GPR can be used to scan the subsurface layers of the ground, providing valuable information on the presence and location of underground utilities and other structures.
Using this data, RoW norms can be formulated that are specific to different road categories and widths. For example, highways and major thoroughfares may require wider RoWs compared to smaller residential streets. Similarly, areas with a higher density of underground utilities may require larger buffer zones to ensure that new construction does not damage existing infrastructure. By taking into account these specific requirements. RoW norms can be formulated that are tailored to the unique needs of different regions and types of roads. This can help to minimize the risk of conflicts and delays during the construction process and ensure that projects are completed in a timely and efficient manner.
Effective right-of-way (RoW) management is crucial for the success and sustainability of infrastructure projects. The following are the impact of the RoW management system:
- Clarity on infrastructure is essential to ensure that resources are allocated efficiently and effectively. Clear visibility and information are critical components or achieving this clarity.
- Better asset management is also a key factor in RoW management. By implementing effective asset management systems, organizations can track the condition of their assets and plan for maintenance and upgrades accordingly. This can help to ensure that resources are allocated efficiently and that infrastructure is maintained at an optimal level.
- Cost savings can be achieved in RoW management by minimizing risks and implementing effective project management strategies. Thorough risk assessments and effective risk management can identify and mitigate potential problems before they become costly issues. Effective project management practices such as clear communication, regular updates, and a focus on expected results can help to ensure that RoW projects are completed on time and within budget.
- Regular updates and better planning can also contribute to cost savings and the success of RoW projects. By having an up-to-date understanding of infrastructure and a holistic view of city infrastructure, stakeholders can make more informed decisions and allocate resources more efficiently. Effective checks on non-compliances can help to ensure that RoW projects are completed in accordance with regulations and standards.
In summary, RoW management can be enhanced by having clarity on infrastructure, clear visibility and information, better asset management, cost savings, effective project management, and effective checks on non-compliances. Expected results from the project include better planning and updated information along with a holistic view of city infrastructure.
