Road Widening - T C Palya Main Road

23 November 2009 - 6:40pm — swamisg

Friends,

I recently moved to Akshay Nagar, and I am happy to see that the road are getting repaired, filled in with Mud & stones and subsequently tarred.

Couple of days ago we had seen markings in all the building with measurement given in meteres. We want to know wheter any proposals are there for road widening and what will the future of buildings there (the road is covered with 6 flats which is over 2-5 years old and all the flats were getting affected worstly). If there is a proposal for road widening then why the same is getting repaired now?

Could any one clarify this?
