IDA Board Meeting • In Scheme 97-Part 4 City Forest, a 4-5 acre park will be built for the extinct species from the forests from Malwa Mill to Rasoma.

here are plans to build an elevated corridor from Malwa Mill to Rasoma Square via Patnaipura Square. A consultant will soon be appointed for this and a feasibility survey will be conducted.

This decision was taken in the meeting of the Board of Directors of Indore Development Authority on Wednesday. In the City Forest to be built in Scheme 97-Part 4, a park of 4-5 acres of species that have become extinct from the forests will be built, so that people can see which species used to exist in the forests earlier. Divisional Commissioner and Chairman Deepak Singh, Collector Ashish Singh, Municipal Commissioner Shivam Verma, CEO Ramprakash Ahirwar, DFO Virendra Patel, Assistant Director of T&CP Sarang Gupta and other officers were present in the board meeting.

Benefit: Vijay Nagar will be directly connected to the central area, BRTS traffic load will be reduced

1. Construction of the elevated corridor will ease the traffic coming from the central area (Rajwada, MG Road) towards Vijay Nagar.

2. Currently, the traffic of the central area comes via MG Road, BRTS or Malwa Mill Patnaipura. Once the elevated corridor is built, the traffic coming from the central area (MG Road) will reach Vijay Nagar Square directly via Lantern Square.

3. The traffic coming from Marimaata and Jail Road will also get relief.

1. If instead of taking this corridor down before Rasoma Square, it is taken across the square and then to Rasima Square and the link road of Ring Road, then the traffic on BRTS will also get relief.

There is a jam every day from Malwa Mill to Patnaipura, Rasoma.
