Road recarpeting in Sector 20 to begin next week: Mayor

The much-awaited road recarpeting work worth Rs 25 crore, which was to commence from the first week of March , is finally gathering steam in the city.

Work on the stretch between Red Bishop Hotel light point and Old Panchkula traffic signal started a week ago. Currently, recarpeting is underway in front of the Command Hospital. The road rollers are expected to move to Sector 20 -21 and later to Sector 6 roads. Tenders for these roads have been allotted.

The MC is recarpeting the roads after a gap of six years. Talking to The Indian Express, Mayor Kulbushan Goyal said, “Sector 20 -21 roads will be recarpetted from next week onwards for which budget allocation of Rs 275 lakh has been done for ward numbers 13 and 15.”
