In Nagpur, the Public Works Department (PWD) is addressing chronic waterlogging at the Narendra Nagar underpass with a ₹9-crore project aimed at alleviating traffic disruptions caused by monsoon flooding. Work commenced in December 2022 and is slated for completion by June 15, 2023. The project involves installing high-capacity pumps and a new sump system designed to handle stormwater effectively. Currently, three 40-horsepower pumps have been installed, and a fourth pump is set to be added soon. The sump has a storage capacity of 500 cubic metres, which will significantly enhance stormwater discharge during intense rainfall. Additionally, the project includes necessary upgrades to drainage lines that have historically overflowed, exacerbating flooding issues. While one side of the underpass is closed for construction, the other side is accommodating two-way traffic, leading to some congestion. However, officials anticipate that the closed section will reopen by June 10, 2023, offering hope for a flood-free experience for commuters in the upcoming monsoon season.
