Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) chief commissioner Gaurav Gupta Wednesday directed civic officials to speed up road repairs in areas where the Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) has finished work related to laying of pipelines and underground drainage system.
The instruction was given during a review meeting over infrastructural development works in 110 villages under BBMP limits. The meeting was attended by zonal chief engineers, divisional executive engineers, and assistant engineers, among others.
“Delay in road repair works will lead to action against the officials concerned. The state government had released a grant of Rs 1,078 crore for the restoration of roads in 110 villages and it should be completed by the end of May to enable smooth vehicular movement,” Gupta told the officials.
