BMC Mandates Engineers' Presence at Road Concretisation Sites at Night
Hindustan Times Mumbai
|March 15, 2025
In its effort to expedite road concretisation work in Mumbai, the deadline for which is May 31, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) has mandated that engineers be present at respective work sites throughout the process, especially at night when temperatures are conducive to concreting work, so that quality is not compromised.
MUMBAI:
The directive was issued by additional municipal commissioner (projects) Abhijit Bangar on Friday. The cement concreting project is being carried out in two phases.
A team of experts from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Bombay, alongside senior BMC officials and representatives from the Quality Assurance Agency (QMA), have been visiting the work sites intermittently. Their observations are recorded and discussed to enhance the overall quality of the ongoing work.
