Dasarahalli MLA calls for repairs to roads dug up for Cauvery 5th phase water line
BENGALURU:
BBMP Chief Commissioner Gaurav Gupta has instructed civic officials to prioritise road, pothole, street light and storm water drain repairs in the Peenya industrial area of Dasarahalli zone.
Speaking to media persons after a meeting with the Peenya Industrial Association on Saturday, Gupta said a team of solid waste management officials will inspect the area and a separate officer will be appointed to resolve the waste disposal issue.
The officials have been instructed to carry out all the repair work within a week, while long-standing issues will be discussed at the government level, he said.
‘Clear SWD silt’
Gupta said the 14th Main Road connecting the industrial areas must be developed at the earliest. Officials have been asked to take up the 4-5 km-long SWD work after identifying waterlogging spots, and to clear the silt in the SWD.
Dasarahalli MLA Manjunath said there is a need to provide basic infrastructure in the Peenya industrial area. Apart from this, the roads in the area where 110 villages have been added to BBMP need to be repaired. The Nilagadanahalli road and the Hesaraghatta main road need to be repaired as a result of the ongoing Cauvery 5th phase pipeline installation work, he said.
The Chief Commissioner inspected Raj Gopal Nagar ward, Kempegowda garden and surrounding areas and instructed the officials concerned to repair the roads that are in bad shape.
Joint Commissioner of Dasarahalli zone Narasimha Murthy, Chief Engineer (RI) Prahallad, president of the Peenya Industrial Association Prakash, office-bearers of the association and other officials were present.
