The core areas are frequently densely populated, crowded locations with limited open space. They have a high population density and are also tied to the city's historical past. These core districts are deteriorating for a variety of causes, and this deterioration is now presenting a danger to the cities' heritage value. The fast-changing lifestyle of the residents of the region, changes in the economics of individuals living in core areas, neglect by local developing authorities, and a lack of connectivity with newly built sections of the city are only a few of the reasons for this deterioration. The heritage zone frequently encircles the core portions of cities, separating them from the newly constructed regions. The clogged roadways that link the city's key districts make them inaccessible to the general public. To maintain the rich legacy of such locations for future generations, there is a great need to connect the heritage core regions with the main metropolis. The study article aims to find a solution for the regeneration and conservation of core regions using mass transportation fast systems. Key Words: Mass Rapid System, Lucknow, public transportation. Urban Area. 1. INTRODUCTION India is a country with a history dating back over 7,000 years. India has several cities that are among the country's oldest. When there were no motorised vehicles on the land, these antique cities were built. India has grown in practically every industry in the last several years. The government's liberalisation programme has had a good impact on the country's economic situation. People's lifestyles have begun to change at a rapid pace as their economic circumstances have improved. Today, the country's ever-increasing population poses a significant transportation burden. In the last three decades, a country that was formerly famed for its agricultural dominance has begun to see increasing rural-to- urban migration. The size of urban centres is growing, which is hurting the density of the core portions of practically all of the country's cities. The country is currently at a fork in the road, with a rich cultural past on one hand and the prospect of future development on the other owing to economic growth. People are relocating out of the core regions as a result of economic and technological growth, and existing land uses are being changed into inaccessible commercial districts. We discover that historic residential settlements are being turned into wholesale commercial centres in practically all cities. This change in land use and mutilation of residential clusters in core regions affects not only the architectural heritage but also the intangible cultural legacy of these core places, which is linked to the people who live there. The absence of functioning public transportation infrastructure has made it difficult to link the city's core districts with newly built neighbourhoods. The striking contrast between newly built districts and neglected city core parts, clogged roadways and deteriorating core areas, all have a significant impact on the tourist business. 1.1.Vehicular Traffic Scenario In India The Ministry of Urban Development, the Government of India's prediction for the next few years shows a startling increase in the number of motor vehicles in India. With the expanding number of cars in Lucknow and across the country, it's more vital than ever to assess the current situation in terms of road traffic carrying capacity in the coming years. In reality, practically every city in India with a population of more than a million people now has a severe transportation challenge. The rate of population increase in metropolitan regions, as well as continual migration from rural to urban areas, is exacerbating the situation. Due to rising urbanisation, population expansion, and economic development, practically all Indian cities will confront a serious public transportation crisis. According to the report, residents living in Indian cities' urban districts have seen a significant increase in their economic standing. These economic changes have not gone unnoticed in the heart of the city. According to polls, the number of motorised cars possessed by persons living in cities has increased by a factor of ten. The percentage increase in the road network owing to restricted carriageways in cities has lagged far behind the pace of expansion in the population and number of motorised vehicles in recent decades. The growth of the economy in urban areas has been a primary driver of rural-to-urban migration. India has had rapid economic growth since 1991 when it implemented a liberalisation strategy. Today, the country is one of the world's fastest-expanding economies. As the economy improves, so does people's desire to get behind the wheel. India has not been spared from the phenomenon. Easy auto loans, as well as an increase in the number of small- segment vehicles and two-wheelers on the market, have
