The driver who travels regularly along this road complains about the protracted delay in completing work with these streets.
Indicates that HDSCL began working on various projects almost five years ago, they said that there were few who proved the transformation of Hubballi-Dharwad into a ‘smart city’.

HDSCL Managing Director Shakeel Ahmed said, “Working on all roads intended to increase under the ‘City City’ project will be completed in two months.
We have finished work in the water channel, and all cables have been installed.
The work was delayed due to the outbreak of Covid-19 , because we have to give a time limit.
