If one goes by the Shimla Smart City Mission plan, the 1,500-m Sanjauli-Indira Gandhi Medical College (IGMC) road is set to become the first “smart” pedestrian path.
“It will have the lighting facility and also the public address system,” said Shimla Smart City Mission project engineers.
The pedestrian path aims at easing traffic chaos at the IGMC gate, which remains choked due to heavy rush of patients and their attendants.
Chief Minister Jai Ram Thakur today laid the foundation stone of the Rs 17.36-crore pedestrian path from Sanjauli to the IGMC, which can be considered a New Year gift.
