MYSURU RISING

Mysuru is growing. The question is who shapes it. Residents have answered. Gathering, imagining, acting together. Mysuru Rising is that momentum, already in motion.

STAND WITH MYSURU

When streets are designed for speed alone, everyone else pays the price. Add your name to a growing movement putting people back at the centre of city planning.

What people Imagined

– Mysuru Resident

I Imagine my Ajji walking to the temple and back without me worrying the whole time.

– Mysuru Resident

A road that excludes the most vulnerable is not finished.

– Mysuru Resident

I Imagine Swimming in the Kukkrahalli Lake someday.


TURNING IMAGINATION TO REALITY

The Samavesha Vision

For months, volunteers walked this junction at rush hour. They counted near misses. They listened to caregivers, students, elders, and disability rights groups. Then they sat with architects and drew something better. The Samavesha plan is not a proposal waiting for permission. It is a city speaking for itself.

The Zebra Crossing

At a junction beside a national institute for persons with disabilities, crossing the road felt unsafe for the very people it was meant to serve. Residents, architects, and institutions sat together to redesign it. The zebra crossing was not just paint on a road. It was a demand. And Mysuru was listening.

How Mysuru redesigned a junction by refusing to accept that this is just how roads work.
