Defunct street lights in areas under the Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation (BMC), starting with those in Salt Lake, will be repaired and upgraded with brighter LED lights, an official of the civic body said recently.
The senior official from the parks and lighting department of the civic body said the work will start in the wards of Salt Lake first and then followed by the rest of the wards in the BMC area. The BMC provides civic services to Salt Lake and areas off VIP Road including Baguiati, Kestopur, Ashwininagar, Kaikhali, Teghoria and parts of Rajarhat.
The civic body also plans to install 820 additional street lights. LED high-mast lights would be installed in some places. BMC mayor Krishna Chakraborty said a tender for the project has already been floated.
