Urbanization and the paradigm shift have been expeditious over the last decade. The rapid expansion of geographic extent of peri-urban and rurban areas have far outreached the carrying capacity and physical infrastructure. India being a densely populated country presents itself with multivariate and complex problems leaving behind a huge gap between people and place. There is no synergy in planning between the city core and the periphery. Introduction of smart infrastructure and mobility under the Smart Cities Mission has certainly boosted development aimed at sustainability but the argument of holistic development still remains. Smart mobility is advantageous in several aspects ranging from environmental to economic viewpoints. Sustainable development under SDGs 2030 also emphasizes on the use of sustainable transit system. The Mass Rapid Transit System (MRTS) has received a boost in several cities across India. The city of Nagpur in Maharashtra was also identified as one of the beneficiaries of this system. It is the first metro to be implementing the “one project one platform” principle of 5D BIM with ERP. The main intent was to connect the urban fabric and provide last mile connectivity for commuters. This research focuses on analyzing the role of Nagpur metro corridor and supporting feeder system in the city core. The analysis shall take into consideration a number of parameters including a pilot survey to understand the impact of this MRTS corridor in order to provide suggestive measures based on the research existing research gaps for future improvement
