This Project Near Town Hall Will Help Pedestrians Connect From Mini Vidhana Soudha to Lady Goshen

October 20: A City-Level Advisory Forum meeting convened to discuss Smart City projects was held at Deputy Commissioner’s office on Saturday.
Mangalore Smart City Limited (MSCL) Managing Director Mohammed Nazeer during the meeting said that an underpass is being constructed in front of Mini Vidhana Soudha that will connect to the road near Lady Goschen Hospital. Nazeer said that the contractor has begun the preliminary work on the underpass and it is expected to bring relief to pedestrians who face a tough time trying to cross the road between Lady Goshen and Tahsildar office. The underpass, which will pass through Gandhi Park located in front of Town Hall, is expected to be completed at a total cost of Rs six crore. The proposal also includes development of the park, the development of landscape and building an amphitheater. Nazeer also said that based on the success of this underpass, work on another underpass would be taken up at Hampankatta.
