Prayagraj's Lowther road to get smart makeover
PRAYAGRAJ, Nov. 2 -- One of Sangam city's prominent roads, Lowther Road, is set to get a smart makeover under the CM Green Road Infrastructure Development (CM GRID) scheme, with an estimated Rs.24 crore being spent on its redevelopment.
The budget for the project has been approved and a work order has also been issued to the executing agency, said officials.
The project will cover the stretch from Balson crossing to the railway crossing, passing through Government Inter College (GIC) and Kulbhaskar Ashram. The road will be reconstructed, while utility lines running through the middle of the road will be shifted towards its edges to ensure better road management and facilitate civic services, they added.
Prayagraj Municipal Corporation junior engineer Ram Saxena said the redevelopment would include provisions for public amenities along the road. Adequate space was available on both sides for developing footpaths and parking facilities, he added.
