Vijayawada will soon see the novel idea of vertical gardens on bridges being implemented on a larger scale, covering two or more bridges in the next few months.
Executive Engineer (Parks), Vijayawada Municipal Corporation, A.S.N. Prasad on Tuesday said vertical gardens not only add to the aesthetics of the city but also improve its air quality. One can see such gardens on 42 of the 120 pillars of the flyover near Benz Circle and on 17 pillars of the flyover near One Town. The remaining pillars, too, would be given the gardens using funds from the 15th Financial Commission.
