Cabinet Minister Bharat Bhushan Ashu today inaugurated the work of Phase 3 of the Sidhwan Waterfront project. He said around 1 km-long stretch along the Sidhwan Canal, starting from Dugri Road to Dhuri Railway Line, would be developed for the benefit of residents in the next few months. He was also accompanied by Mayor Balkar Singh Sandhu.
Ashu said under the third phase of the project, a waterfront would be developed from Dugri Road till Dhuri Line. He said at present, the 1-km stretch was lying useless and when the waterfront would be developed here with a cost of around Rs 3.5 crore, a large number of area residents would be benefitted. It would be used for morning/evening walk along with other leisure activities.

In the second phase, Sidhwan Canal (from Pakhowal Road to Dugri Road) was being developed on 1.6 km long second phase (from Jawaddi Bridge till Dugri Road) with a cost of Rs 5.06 crore.
