PWD set to begin redevelopment work on ‘Heritage Corridor’ project

NEW DELHI: After redeveloping the 1.4 km Chandni Chowk stretch, the Public Works Department (PWD) is all set to begin work on the ‘Heritage Corridor” and redevelopment of the six arterial roads. The department has completed all the formalities and has appointed consultants for the Phase-II project.

“The consultant has been appointed and we are waiting to start the civil construction on ground. As these stretches fall in the heritage line, it is looked at by the Shahjahanabad Redevelopment Corporation (SRDC). The Urban Development department sanctioned the funds to SRDC and then to the PWD,” said a senior PWD official.
