The On-Ground Plot & Land Inspection Protocol

An approved township plan often shows wide 60ft or 80ft sector roads. However, during initial phases, the actual motorable asphalt width may only be 20ft, with the remaining right-of-way unacquired or encroached.

During your site visit, measure the full dedicated approach corridor from the main highway to the entrance gateway. Ensure that heavy construction vehicles and municipal fire tenders can safely access the plot.

Inspect the natural ground elevation relative to the central asphalt road. A plot situated significantly lower than the road level requires substantial soil filling costs to prevent monsoon water logging.

Look for natural seasonal streams (nallahs) or water channels. Statutory building bye-laws mandate strict non-construction buffer distances (typically 15 to 30 meters) from notified water bodies.

Modern premium townships install underground electricity cables, water supply pipelines, and optical fiber conduits. Inspect utility junction boxes, transformer locations, and dedicated underground sewage treatment plants (STP).
