PROGRAM
Designing the Anarkali Orange Line Station
involves several important aspects:
1. Connecting Different Modes of
Transportation:
Make sure that people can easily move
between the Orange Line metro, buses,
rickshaws, bikes, and walking paths.
2. Adding Natural Elements:
Include things like vertical gardens, green
walls, rooftop gardens, and water features
to make the station look nice and improve
the air. Use local plants to help local
wildlife.
3. Honoring Lahore’s Culture:
Use traditional designs and art from
Lahore to make the station feel special.
Things like arches, tiles, and symbolic
structures can help.
4. Helping People Find Their Way:
Put up signs, digital maps, and guides to
help people find their way around the
station. Make it easy for people to know
where they are.
5. Using Technology:
Use technology for things like tickets, real-
time info, and screens to make the station
better. Make it eco-friendly with efficient
lights and climate control.
6. Creating Spaces for the Community:
Design open areas for people to hang out
and enjoy. Add art and sculptures to make
the place interesting.
7. Being Kind to the Environment:
Use solar power, collect rainwater, and
recycle water. Use materials and methods
that don’t hurt the environment.
8. Helping Everyone Get Around: Make
sure people with disabilities can use the
station easily. Everyone should be able to
reach everything.
9. Keeping People Safe:
Use cameras and people to keep everyone
safe. Make sure the station is well-lit and
people can see what’s going on.
10. Teaching and Sharing Information:
Set up places where people can learn
about the station’s cool features and its
culture. Have workshops and programs
about sustainability, culture, and
transportation.
11. Taking Care of the Station:
Think about how to keep the green areas,
art, and facilities in good shape for a long
time. Involve the community in managing
and improving the station.
All these ideas will help make the
Anarkali Orange Line Station a great
place to be, with a mix of nature,
culture, and technology that benefits the
community and the environment.
