‘Nine rainwater harvesting pits can be constructed on metro Yellow Line’

A recent survey by the ActionAid India has recognised that there are opportunities to construct nine rainwater harvesting pits near the metro pillars of RV Road Metro Station on the Yellow Line.

The report titled ‘A survey of RWH opportunities at RV Road Metro Station (Yellow Line)’ has added that there are opportunities to construct seven water tanks and nine rainwater harvesting pits, in the park adjacent to the metro station.  

The survey was conducted after the researchers noticed that the rainwater collected near the RV Road metro station was being discharged onto the footpaths and thereby was being wasted. The survey was conducted between July 15 and 19 and included 35 pillars between Marenahalli Road in J.P. Nagar and Rashtreeya Vidyalaya Road in Jayanagar.
