Garden Reach Plant to Add 40 Million Gallons of Daily Water

Indiatimes · · Infrastructure

Kolkata Municipal Corporation plans a 40-million-gallon-a-day treatment plant at Garden Reach to supply safe drinking water to south Kolkata, benefiting about one million people.

Key facts

Kolkata Municipal Corporation plans to build a 40-million-gallon-per-day water treatment plant at Garden Reach for south Kolkata areas where residents, particularly high-rise occupants, rely on groundwater. The proposal followed requests from high-rise residents; about 10 lakh people are expected to benefit.

Garden Reach’s six existing plants produce 210 million gallons daily, serving south Kolkata, suburbs near EM Bypass, and Pujali and Maheshtala municipalities. The proposed plant will focus on areas dependent on tubewells and high-rises that applied for safe water. Applicants are mainly in Behala, Joka, Tollygunge, Jadavpur, Garia, Chetla and Rashbehari Avenue.

Merlin Laurel Garden in Purba Barisha, Behala, has 96 flats across six towers in three blocks. Genexx Valley in Joka has 1,875 flats and 6,000 residents; residents there rely entirely on groundwater.

Kolkata Ring Road Proposal Links Four Bengal Districts

MagicBricks · · Infrastructure

A proposed 4–6-lane outer road could connect Kolkata, Howrah, North 24 Parganas and South 24 Parganas, with IIT Kharagpur studying feasibility.

Key facts

The proposed 4–6-lane Kolkata Ring Road would divert inter-district and truck traffic from city roads, improve links between highways and expressways, and support movement towards industrial and port areas. The final alignment is not approved; the plan would connect existing roads and add missing links.

The initial blueprint traces a route along the Hooghly near Vidyasagar Setu and Nivedita Setu; Panchla–Bauria–a proposed river crossing near Budge Budge–Maheshtala–Garden Reach–Diamond Harbour Road–Amtala–Sonarpur–Baruipur; Kona Expressway–Belghoria Expressway–Kalyani Expressway; and towards Basanti Highway and Basirhat. Sonarpur, Baruipur, Maheshtala, Amtala and parts of Howrah are among areas on the proposed route.

IIT Kharagpur is conducting a technical and financial feasibility study. The project has not entered construction; surveys may change the route, while land requirements, funding and approvals remain for later stages. A proposed Hooghly crossing near Budge Budge could link Howrah and South 24 Parganas more directly and reduce reliance on crowded crossings.
