He directed the officials to get the carpeting of roads done soon and said that engineers on duty need to ensure that markings on roads are extremely important and must not go invisible at any time of the year and field officers should keep a check on this at priority.
While speaking to the engineers, Sisodia said, "The department need not wait for a bigger project for landscaping and maintaining greenery around this road. All the horticultural requirements of the road must be fulfilled and maintained from time to time."Along with this, he said that officials need to follow the standards of maintenance of roads set by the government which include cleanliness, landscaping, and others. He directed the officials that along with the strengthening of the road, new signage should be installed on the road visited today and proper road marking should be done keeping norms in mind.
