The masterplan

Lanes named after trees: Amaltas, Mahua, Semal

A lane name can be just a number. The Neer Creek by Bhavya - twenty-one private villa plots at Saroda, near Rai University on SH-144 - takes a different approach on its masterplan: the internal lanes are planned to carry the names of trees. Amaltas, Mahua and Semal are the names you will see on the plan.

Why tree names

The idea is simple. A weekend community should feel like a landscape, not a layout sheet. Naming lanes after Indian flowering trees gives each street its own identity from day one, and it signals what the planting along that lane is planned to grow into over the years.

Amaltas, Mahua, Semal

Each name belongs to a tree most Gujaratis know well. Amaltas (the golden shower tree) covers itself in yellow blossom in early summer. Mahua is the old village tree whose flowers and shade have anchored gathering spots for generations. Semal - the silk cotton tree - grows tall with bright red spring flowers that birds visit in flocks. On the masterplan, the lane names and the planting theme go together.

Part of a larger planned landscape

The lanes are one layer of a masterplan that also shows a grove, a sensory pond, an open maidaan, a playground and a party lawn as planned shared spaces, with a security cabin and clubhouse planned at the heart of the community. These are planned features on the drawing, and the site today shows the land and early work taking shape.

Reading the masterplan on your visit

When you visit, ask to see the masterplan and walk the lane alignments in person. Standing on the land makes it much easier to picture where Amaltas lane runs, which plots face it, and how the planned planting will frame each entrance over time.

Walk the lanes on your visit
