Build cycle track on Ggn-Fbd Rd stretch: Residents to GMDA

By Sumit Blogs -

Gurgaon: Concerned over increasing pollution in the city, the residents of DLF-1 have demanded construction of cycle track along the Gurgaon-Faridabad road. The residents have written to GMDA CEO Sudhir Rajpal seeking his intervention to lay the cycle track from Bristol Chowk to the Boulevard Avenue intersection.
Spread across 500 acres, DLF City-1 has 8,000 families. Also, Silver Oak Apartments has 700 families living there. The residents pointed out that it is the need of the hour to make the city’s road more cycle-friendly to provide an alternative and sustainable way of transportation.
Baljeet Singh Rathee, president of Qutub Enclave RWA said, “People have now become more health conscious because of the pandemic and with the increasing air pollution and traffic congestion in the city, it is imperative to develop cycling track which is eco-friendly way to commute. We have written to the CEO of GMDA urging him to lay the cycling track on the Gurgaon-Faridabad road.”
They pointed out that residents in the area are cycling enthusiasts and due to lack of a dedicated cycling corridor are forced to brave the high speed vehicles on this busy stretch. “Our area is surrounded by the Aravali forest and attract many cycling enthusiasts but due to road traffic, they don’t feel safe. Many others also want to engage in a healthy lifestyle but lack of safe infrastructure and poor road conditions are the real downers,” said Dhruv Bansal, spokesperson of QERWA.
Meanwhile, GMDA CEO Sudhir Rajpaj could not be contacted for comments despite repeated attempts.

Madhavan and Vijay Sethupathi’s hit movie Vikram Vedha’s Hindi remake will not go on floors by mid-July as per the original plan. The new delta virus of COVID has sent shudders down many spines and many films which were being laid out on an expansive scale have been either held back or shifted their shoots abroad. The first schedule of this Hrithik-Saif movie will now be shot abroad. A source says, “The Mumbai schedule will be done but later.” Adds the source, “It’s a call that was taken yesterday. It wasn’t an easy call to take, no doubt, but the fact that it’s going to be a costly set made the makers take the safer route rather than be sorry later.” When contacted, General Secretary of FWICE (Federation of Western India Cine Employees), Ashok Dubey, confirmed that the makers of ‘V
