Tender process on as govt. grants a sum of ₹50 crore
Blacktopping of Mysuru’s major roads that are in bad shape is expected to be launched soon with funds sanctioned under the Mayor’s grant for the works comprising most wards of the city.
A sum of ₹50 crore has been sanctioned by the government to the Mayor for carrying out the repairs and asphalting as roads here have turned from bad to worse after the damage caused by last year’s heavy rains and lack of timely maintenance.
The tender process has been initiated for the works estimated to be costing around ₹25 crore and the process may take about a month’s time before the works actually take off. “Once the tender process is done and the work orders are issued, the government is expected to give its nod and release funds for another stage of road works costing a sum of ₹25 crore,” said Mayor Sunanda Palanetra.
