The BBMP has proposed spending ₹6 crores to enhance the Market Road in VV Puram, which is lined with well-known eateries.
Story so far: The construction of the road, pathways, and drainage is expected to take four months, according to BBMP Zonal Commissioner (South) Jayaram Raipura. The narrow street, also known as Thindi Beedhi (food street), connects RV Road and Sajjan Rao Circle.
- It is lined by restaurants and food carts selling regional specialities from Karnataka and other states.
- There are 37 stalls along a 200-meter stretch.
Amenities: The plan calls for shared roadways with fixed standing tables, common handwash stations, and the right-of-way for pedestrians. Additionally, each outlet will have fixed dustbins and oil traps for waste collection.
