Work has started on installing new grill along the roadside of the Sardar Patel Marg to improve the aesthetic look of the main street located on wayও from the Delh🧜i airport to the heart of the city which is slated to host the G20 summit next year, a senior official said on Friday.
NDMC Member Kuljeet Singh Chahal also said that the New Delhi Municipal Council has procured stocks of bulbs of tulips, which will b🌌e used for horticultural decoration of the city.
Lutyens' Delhi and few posh neighbouring areas fall with🍌in the jurisdiction of the Council.
"From airport to the main city, roads falls under the ꦗjurisdiction of the NHAI or PWD, and t🐬he Sardar Patel Marg falls under our jurisdiction. Since, any visitor coming to main city area of Delhi from the airport side will take that route, we are revamping the look of the street. Old grills were installed earlier, and at many places the fence is broken. So, a new grill fence will be mounted along this road," Chahal said.
Artwo🙈rks would also be incorporated into the new fence that will come up next to the ridge that overlooks the Sardar Patel Marg.
