Karnal, September 13
Karnal Smart City Limited (KSCL) has chalked a plan to convert leftover space below the seven flyovers on the National Highway-44 into recreational areas, which will work as an effective public space.
The KSCL has earmarked the flyovers and the consultant has been directed to design and develop these spaces with modernised parking provision for improving pedestrian connectivity through crossings, graffiti, lightning and public amenities.
Makeover on the cards
Beautification will be done at leftover spaces under the seven flyovers. The development of spaces will create a sense of belongingness among citizens and create an identity for the city.
Presently, these spaces are in a shabby condition. Some graffiti work was done a few years back on the walls below the flyovers, but with the passing of time, nobody paid attention towards it.
Some irresponsible residents have pasted posters on the walls. The KSCL has taken up these spaces under the Smart City project.
“Beautification will be done at leftover spaces under the flyovers near Karan Lake, Baldi bypass, Nirmal Kutiya Chowk, Sector 6 Chowk, Tau Devi Lal Chowk and Namastey Chowk,” said Nishant Kumar Yadav, DC-cum-CEO, KSCL.
He said the development of spaces would create a sense of belongingness among citizens and create an identity for the city. “It is our attempt to utilise the leftover spaces below the flyovers and make these beautiful,” he said.
