Bangalore: The year-end is slated to see better roads, as the BMP has set a deadline of December 31 for all road works.
An official release said BMP commissioner K Jairaj has reviewed and monitored the asphalting works. The schedule drawn up — 88.57 km to be completed in east zone, 89 km in west zone and 128 km in south zone. From November 28, senior officers at the zones would be undertaking inspections in the morning with a checklist: maintaining road surface, checking potholes, kerbs, streetlights, road-cutting among others. Jairaj has also told officials to put up the details of all works on the BMP website.
Short-stay homes
Responding to a query put forth by senior citizens on having short-stay homes, at a meeting, Jairaj has asked zonal deputy commissioners to chalk out a plan to facilitate short-stay homes. Zonal officers have been asked to have more public meetings with citizens on specific civic issues.
