BENGALURU: Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) Administrator Gaurav Gupta and Bengaluru Smart City Managing Director Rajendra Cholan on Friday inspected the ongoing Smart City works in the city. Speaking to the media on the sidelines of the inspection, he said that the CM will soon inaugurate nine more roads of the total 36. “Five of them have already been opened,” he added. He instructed the officials to complete the works at the earliest.
He inspected Raj Bhavan Road, Nehru Planetarium Road, Cantonment Road, Queen’s Road, Kasturba Road and Raja Ram Mohan Roy Road. At Raj Bhavan Road and Planetarium Road, Gupta directed the officials to clear the pedestrian underpass as it was unused and was becoming a place for illegal activities. He also asked them to clear all illegal OFC cables lying on the roads and fix the dangling ones. He called up BESCOM managing director and asked him to shift all utilities underground at the earliest.
