This study is about proposing the development of cluster for the area at peri-urban areas. Two villages namely ‘Karadva’ and ‘Saniya Kande’ were identified as apt study locations in the South-east inner fringe of administrative boundary of Surat city in the Gujarat state of India. The threats of urban development such as poor land management and haphazard construction activities were identified in the study area. In addition, the study area location is not included for preparation of town planning scheme by the urban development authority. The current scenario is depicting a need for planning of land use and infrastructure for future. The same is attempted based on the prevailing norms of URDPFI 2015 guidelines. The inclusion of Smart components in the proposal is also studied and discussed in the context of the existing situation and proposed development. The component of smart water supply network proposal with a pro-rata cost estimation is discussed.
