The yogi government is rapidly making preparations to organize the divine, grand and well organized Mahakumbh at Prayagraj. The government is making many new efforts to make the experience of tourists and devotees visiting Mahakumbh memorable. Chief among these efforts is facilitating road traffic, for which a major project is being implemented at Kumbh Nagri.
39 traffic crossings are under construction
For the first time, 39 traffic junctions are being constructed in the city to simplify access to Prayagraj by road as well as redesign the city's traffic system. Vivek Chaturvedi, additional officer of Kumbh Mela, says 39 traffic junctions are being constructed to give an organized shape to the traffic system in the pre-Mahakumbh city. They are being built with a budget of approximately Rs 50 crore. Their tenders have been published. These will become a means of easy transportation and beautification for Mahakumbh devotees. Prior to the construction of the traffic interchange, a study of those intersections was also conducted through an agency. Where there is a lot of traffic problem. Subsequently, the design of these crossings was carried out.
Junction will be a fusion of easy traffic and beautiful appearance.
These traffic junctions, which are being built for the first time, will go a long way in making the city's traffic system smart. They have been designed with such a size that they can handle traffic well. According to the additional Kumbh Mela officer, islands are being prepared for this at the traffic junction. Its size will increase or decrease accordingly. The crossing will have an intelligent traffic signaling system that will be fully automated.
Junction will look beautiful.
To give a beautiful look to the traffic junction, attractive sculptures and lights will also be installed in the remaining space. A green belt will also be created inside the intersection itself in which small ornamental plants will be planted. These traffic junctions will be helpful in managing the crowd during the Kumbh bathing festivals. Even after the end of Kumbh, they will continue to be useful in easing the city's traffic system.
