Road history project will begin in January
BENGALURU: The long-pending road history project, which will help citizens keep a hawk’s eye on the previous construction works and other details on roads, will be put up on public platform by January 2020.
During an interaction with The New Indian Express, Deputy Chief Minister, Dr C N Ashwath Narayan said, “The project has been delayed for long but now it will be in place. The state government has given Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) three months time to get the road history project in public domain and by January 2020.”
The Geographical Information system-based road history of BBMP was initiated in 2013. However, due to the delay by the authorities, it was not implemented. In 2016, former BBMP Commissioner G Kumar Naik had stated that it would be launched in 2018, but it did not happen. However, now the DyCM brings in some hope that the project will be in place in 2020.
