"There is a need to set up a bus stand with a shelter for commuters to wait.The modalities are being worked out," said an official.
NDITA is also installing smart road signs on various stretches in Sector V to aid commuters and drivers, ensuring visibility at night. Additionally, plans are underway to develop the area from Wipro Crossing to College More into a smart street. This project will include cycle lanes, street furniture, modern bus stops, water ATMs, public art, CCTV surveillance, decorative lighting, and signages.
