Gurgaon: The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) will start roadworks in several sectors of the city after the monsoon.
The metropolitan authority has invited bids from private agencies for the repair work.
The total cost of the project is expected to be around Rs 4.5 crore.
The selected agency will also be required to look after the maintenance of the repaired stretches for a year, officials said.
The stretches included in the project are dividing roads for sectors 45/46, 29/30, 45/52, 51/52, 42/5, outer road in Sector 26 and the road near Sector 72A.
A separate tender has been floated for the repair work of dividing roads for sectors 3/5 and 4/7.
A GMDA official said, “The craters in the roads are not only an inconvenience but are also a safety concern as they can cause accidents.
So, we have invited agencies for the project and once the bids are evaluated, we will allocate them to the relevant bidders.
Roadworks should begin immediately after the tenders have been allotted.” Meanwhile, the metropolitan authority has also floated bids for developing missing links in the road connecting IMT Manesar with the road dividing sectors 87/91.
The said link was never constructed due to litigation hurdles.
The construction of the patch will offset the agency by Rs 70 lakh, officials said.
TOI had earlier reported that bringing in relief for thousands of new sector residents, GMDA invited agencies for the work of building the missing links of master dividing roads of sectors 81/82 92/95, 81/86 and outer roads of sectors 91 and 92.
The new sectors do not have proper connectivity as land for patches between the roads were under litigation.
This caused grave inconvenience to the residents living in the areas.
As monsoon nears, road repairs will have to wait
