The Public Works Department (PWD) issued fresh directions to carry out air pollution mitigation exercises, including pressure cleaning of Ring Road and Outer Ring Road and installation of mist spray systems, across the Capital.

The order came two days after chief minister Rekha Gupta chaired a review meeting with civic agencies, calling for accelerated action to address dust and vehicular emissions in Delhi.

To tackle dust accumulation, officials said, all stretches along Ring Road will be washed using high-pressure water jets on Saturday. A similar exercise will be carried out on the Outer Ring Road as well.

According to PWD, the exercise is aimed at controlling dust that settles on carriageways and dividers, which is often aggravated by vehicular movement.

The department has also set a December 15 deadline to finish installation of 305 mist-spraying systems across city roads, which was initially slated for completion by November 30.
