Rajarhat New Town is steadily developing into a well-planned and swanky sister city of Kolkata. The Eco Park here has evolved into a major leisure, fitness, recreation and entertainment zone along with the Mother’s Wax Museum, Nazrul Tirtha, Arts Acre and several other attractions. Traffic management is good in Rajarhat New Town and the roads are wide and well-planned as well. There are perfectly spread out traffic signals, abundant natural greenery, luxurious residential towers and condominiums, roadside gardens, parks, gigantic commercial structures and offices and ample spaces for car parking. New Town is steadily moving towards becoming a Smart City.
There is already Wi-Fi available along a stretch of 12 kilometres on the main arterial road while disabled friendly ramps will soon be built all over the area. The Smart City development will encompass a whopping 900 acres and there will be solar panels for parks along with e-rickshaw stands (booking via apps) and smart buses in tandem with smart electricity meters, car-pooling, app-based health services, telemedicine kiosks, waste management solutions, dedicated tracks for cyclists and more. There will be total e-governance along with GPS backed public welfare and assistance in tandem with high-speed Wi-Fi. There will be a responsive grievance management system for citizens while a development lab will be replicated for a stretch of 350 square metres on the main arterial road. All the innovations will undergo pilot testing here prior to being implemented in other zones.
Several real estate developers are cashing in on the development boon in Rajarhat New Town with premium projects of their own.
