The Vizianagaram Municipal Corporation is planning to develop a ‘Food Street’ in the area adjacent to Nehru Park.
VMC officials, who visited similar streets in cities like Chennai, Bengaluru, Hyderabad and Visakhapatnam, are planning to replicate the model in the city.
As of now, the street food stalls in the city are located near drains and busy marketplaces, which diminishes the experience of eating out for families. Further, in the absence of seating areas and parking spots , denizens are forced to park their vehicles haphazardly on the roadside, resulting in inconvenience to other motorists.
