Civic body planning to resurface major roads
NASHIK: The NMC
is planning to resurface around 21 major roads, which have not been
resurfaced for the past 10-15 years, across the city. The proposal is to
be tabled on March 18 at the general body meeting (GBM) of the NMC for its approval.
The resurfacing is estimated to cost Rs 19 crore and is to be carried
out through private contractors by inviting tenders. The civic
administration will commence the tender process after an approval of the
GBM.
The roads, which are to be resurfaced, include the road
from Chamunda chowk to Gunjal Mala and Meenatai Thackeray stadium in
Panchavati division at the cost of Rs 1.19 crore. The road from Dindori
Road to Mhasrul on Mhasrul-Adgaon link road is to be resurfaced at the
cost of Rs 1.45 crore.
The other roads are Makhmalabad Road from Indu
Plaza to Dream Castle, Datta Nagar to Makhmalabad Road and Kumawat
Nagar to Janata Raja colony, Aurangabad Naka to Hirawadi Road, service
road from K K Wagh College of Engineering to Left Canal, Ahilyabai
Holkar bridge to Raviwar Karanja in Panchavati division, Modak Point to
Doodh Bazaar, Prasad Circle to Nirmala Convent school, road from Central
Bus Stand to Canada Corner and the road from Govt Milk Dairy to
Sambhaji chowk in Nashik West division.
A senior NMC official
said, “The roads must be resurfaced once every four-five years. Most of
the city roads have not been resurfaced for the past many years.
Considering this, we have undertaken resurfacing of major roads on
priority basis.”
The total length of the city roads are around
2,809 kms, including 1,647 kms of tarring, 752 kms of khadi (rock) roads
and 410 kms of concrete roads. Roads with total length of 75 kms were
constructed in the city during the last three years. The roads in the
city have not been resurfaced after the last Simhastha Kumbh.
