In an effort to make Rajarhat New Town more business-friendly , the 10.5-km Rajarhat Main Arterial Road connecting the airport to Sector V will soon become a Wi-Fi enabled stretch where one would be able to connect to the net while travelling on a car or a bus. The stretch has already been declared as a green corridor.
In the second phase, the connectivity will be further stretched to Chingrihata on EM Bypass, which is about another 6 km away .
Officials said the unique plan was being mulled for some time as New Town was slowly turning into an IT and business hub. The road is often used by several VIPs and dignitaries on their way to and from the airport. It is being thought that having a Wi-Fi connectivity on this stretch will bring immense business benefits as businessmen and IT officials use this stretch the most.
The road had been declared as a green corridor some days back. No billboards or hoardings are allowed to come up on the stretch. The Hidco authorities have been installing LED streetlights on both sides of the stretch along with planting trees and saplings along road dividers.
