The BMC is thinking of appointing an IIT to supervise the ongoing concretization work of roads in the city. The responsibility is not only restricted to quality control but extends to ensuring quality so that the roads will remain intact for many years.
Of the total 2,050 km of roads in the city, 990 km is already concretized. The work on concretizing 236 km of roads began in 2022, and work related to 400 km of roads started in 2023. The contract for the remaining 423 km is yet to be given out. Though the BMC appointed third parties to supervise the ongoing concretization work of roads, this time they are thinking of taking help from IIT.
