If everything goes to the plan, then private vehicles will not be allowed to go up to Hills Nandi Hills in the coming months, because the ambitious Nandi Ropeway project gains pace. As soon as the Gardening Department is preparing to hand over two acres of land at the top of the hill at the tourism department to build the top terminal for the rope, there are concerns about the parking space that will be endangered.
On Sunday, Nandi Hills, along with the deputy commissioner and the top officials of the tourism department, visited what this problem could be visited on Sunday Nandi Hills, on Sunday.
“Once the two acres are taken, the parking space is reduced to one -third of their original proportions that lead to the problem. Therefore, we suggest that an alternative arrangement like a bus to ferry people is a better choice,” Dr. Sudhakar Hindi.
He added: “On Sunday morning around 5.15 o’clock there were about 1100 two rounds or more than 500 four rounds. Some people will start to come between 2.30 and 3 o’clock in the morning. The number of visitors will be even larger in the winter months. We found a ground package of 20 hectares, about four kilometers if these vehicles could be parked.
The same model is monitored in Himavad Gopalaswamy Betta, another popular tourist destination in the Chamarajanagar district. The same was designed by the Chikkamagalur district administration after private vehicles created traffic jams during the holidays on Mullayanagiri hills.
“Soon we will have a meeting with the main secretary and Minister of Tourism to discuss it. The government is also planning to organize the cabinet on Nandi hills in the next or two months, and at that time we will also put this proposal before the cabinet because we would need financial assistance in getting buses and other things,” Sudhakar.
Online ticket sales, emergency services
The Minister also noted that despite the presence of three to four counter tickets, there were long queues that received tickets. “It is planned to implement online ticket sales system, where visitors can also indicate which vehicle brings in order to make parking measures appropriately,” he said.
He also said that there were plans for renovation and placement of premium boxes in the restaurant above the hills, where people who arrive early can sit and refresh themselves and have a private aspect.
“I also noticed that once you enter the main arch, there is not enough space for firefighting engines and ambulances that would enter. As soon as we start the rope activities and other adventure activities, it is important that we provide them with safety. Sudhkar.
The State Forest Department provided its check -up of the LANOWAY project, while the Ministry of the Environment of the Union is expected.
