Srinagar’s Smart City project!

Recommended for India

Hey there, little adventurers! Guess what’s happening in Srinagar, the beautiful valley? They’re working on something super exciting called the Smart City Project, and it’s going to give the valley a fantastic makeover in just six months!

Srinagar’s Smart Makeover!

  • Let us tell you some cool stuff they’re planning to do. First off, they want to make it easier for everyone to move around the city. So, they’ll have better buses and boats for transportation. How cool is that? You can explore the city and its historic buildings while having lots of fun!
  • Oh, and here’s something awesome! They’re creating a special market called the Polo View market, and it’s going to be the first of its kind in the valley. You can walk there easily and imagine yourself in a European market. It’s going to be a delightful experience!
  • They also want to encourage people to ride bicycles, so they’re building a super long cycle path. You can ride your bike and enjoy the view while feeling like a champion cyclist! And did you know, the cycle path will be more than 15 kilometers long? That’s really long!
  • The Jhelum riverbank is also going to get a makeover. They’ll raise it step by step, making it easier for everyone to reach the old city by boat. How cool would it be to take a boat ride and enjoy the beautiful scenery?
  • But wait, there’s more! As part of the smart city project, Srinagar is elevating its technology game with Wi-Fi hotspots, electric rickshaw charging stations, and a sophisticated central data system to regulate traffic. This initiative, a key component of the smart city project, leverages the internet to enhance city management. How fancy is that?
  • In addition, the smart city project includes laying an intricate network of special cables underground throughout the city. Think of these like magic wires, weaving a web of connectivity to make the city smarter and more interconnected!
  • And there’s more exciting news from the smart city project: the Shalimar Bagh canal is set for a transformative makeover! As part of this grand vision, this already picturesque garden will be revamped to new heights of splendor, integrating seamlessly into the smart city project’s goals of enhancing the city’s beauty and functionality
  • The best part is, most of these projects are almost done. They’ve finished 50 to 60% of the work, and soon everything will be ready for everyone to enjoy.
  • So, my little friends, get ready to see a new and improved Srinagar very soon. It’s going to be like a dream city with so many exciting things to explore! Let’s cheer for the amazing people working on this project and making Srinagar even more awesome! Yay!
