Abstract	Bathinda, the largest city in southern Punjab, is undergoing rapid urbanisation, driven by industrial expansion, infrastructural development, and rural-to-urban migration. While this transformation has created economic opportunities, it has also produced significant pressures on civic amenities, transport infrastructure, water resources, and environmental sustainability. This paper examines urbanisation patterns in Bathinda, focusing on major affected roads—Mansa Road, Dabwali Road, Mall Road, Railway Road, and Old City areas— and analyses the impacts of increased traffic volume, water demand, sewerage generation, and solid waste management. Using secondary data from municipal records, census reports, and planning documents, the study highlights the need for sustainable urban planning and effective policy interventions.
