Jamshedpur, Feb 14: A walking track with plantations on both sides and sitting arrangements for morning and evening walkers, Dimna Road in Mango, which is the gateway to Jamshedpur from NH-33, will soon get a new look with these new facilities.
More so, it will be purged of illegal hoardings and banners crowding its skyline soon.
The Mango Notified Area Committee (MNAC), the local civic body has roped in Tata Steel subsidiary, JUSCO, for executing the beautification plan on the Dimna Road, one of the busiest arteries of the city.
Construction of the walking track has begun from the Dimna Chowk side on the median of the four lane road.
MNAC officials said the walking track will be constructed on the 3.5 Km road connecting Mango Chowk with Dimna Chowk.
“The construction work of the walking track is expected to get completed by April this year. The work has begun. Some portion will be ready by March 3, when Steel City celebrates Founder’s Day to mark the birth anniversary of JN Tata, the founder of Tata Steel.
Mango Notified Area Committee has also decided to launch a crackdown on unauthorised hoardings and billboards of the densely populated area to beautify the area and clear the view for commuters and pedestrians.
These include all those put up by political groups and commercial agencies.
