Rajkot urban body plans transit zone for phase 5 of Ring Road-2
A week after Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel inaugurated phase-3 and phase-4 of the Ring Road-2 (RR2) around Rajkot city, the board of Rajkot Urban Development Authority (RUDA) on Tuesday decided to create a transit-oriented zone (TOZ) for phase-5 of the ring road to connect National Highway 27 to Morbi Road.
At a meeting on Tuesday, the governing board of RUDA decided to create a TOZ within the area categorised as a green-zone between the NH27 and Morbi Road or State Highway 24 (SS24) in the RUDA’s Development Plan, 2031.
Under the Gujarat Town Planning and Urban Development Act, 1976, a local body or area development authority gets 40 per cent of land in a given area as land reserved for developing public infrastructure, including roads.
