BENGALURU: Citizens can breathe a sigh of relief as one of the Smart City initiatives from Planetarium Road to Minsk Square will be completed within a week’s time, that is, November 1, as per its scheduled deadline. The road, green buffer zone, pedestrian walk as well as the cycle lane will be completed for citizens to use.
This comes despite the department having to overcome several hurdles, including the heavy rains in the past one week as well as illegal pipelines and cables which were not observed in the original plan. The work on the 0.92 km stretch had started in January and was stalled due to the pandemic lockdown.
