In view of the tourist season ahead, Nainital district administration has asked the officials concerned to fill up the craters gaping in many important roads that connect different parts of the district by April 30.
They directed the PWD and National Highway Authority officials to ease the inconveniences the commuters and the tourists face while negotiating roads like Kathgodam-Nainital Road, Bhowali-Nainital Road and Kaladhungi-Nainital Road. Things must be completed by the end of this month, they stressed.
More so, they asked the road construction agencies to install boards at different points along these roads displaying information about the important tourist destinations so that the tourists and other visitors may not have to face any difficulty to reach their destinations on time.
With the tourist season drawing near, Nainital district administration has asked the officials to take necessary steps to provide parking facilities in the lake city, Nainital. At the same time, it asked the Nainital district officials to not allow vehicles being parked on the busy Mall Road in Nainital during the tourist season.
The parking facilities will be made available at Sukhatal instead near Kumaon University campus and other open spaces available around the lake city. Meanwhile, to decongest traffic in the lake city, it is said that the heavy vehicles coming from Haldwani will be parked at Hanumangarhi, while those coming from Kaladhungi will be parked at Sukhataal. They also stressed on strict actions to be taken against those found defying traffic rules.
