South Gate - campus layout
The layout of the Southern Service
Node or South Gate aims to make this
the formal entrance into Auroville on
the Residential Zone side. The current
entrance via the Certitude poramboke
will need to be closed to effectuate
this controlled entry.
The campus is designed with a
parking/ mobility transit hub, a bus
access and bus stand with a waiting
area, existing buildings integrated into
future developments, of which the first
phase will include a Food Court
building including a store, an info and
e-vehicle rental desk. Along with this,
in the building is included a space for
Swiggy/ Parcel delivery office, which
contributes to a large portion of
Auroville’s motorized traffic today.
With FAMC these services will have to
be formalized, and Aurovilians who
order food or goods will need to pick
them up from the pick-up point, and
no longer be able to receive the items
at doorstep.
