Construction of the metro rail system in metropolis have brought out many vital environmental, social and other related critical issues which is required to be studied and addressed rigorously to make these mega infrastructure projects not only socially and environmentally acceptable, but also technically and economically viable. MG Road has become the hub of shops, restaurants and businesses. As the evolution of the road changed over the past, the facade of the road has also drastically changed. Even more changes were observed after the metro construction adjacent to that stretch. The metro construction plays a huge role on the exterior outlook of the road. The study majorly focuses on the changes that the road’s facades have gone through over the years, along with understanding, the views of the customers and the shop owners of the MG Road. The investigation is based on live and literature case studies, photographs and qualitative surveys providing a better understanding of the effect of metro construction.
