In the run up to the inauguration of the Jewar airport, the UP government is hard selling the Greater Noida area to attract investment. A film city and a toy manufacturing zone have been recently added in the region to further push the growth engine in the Greater Noida area for the state.
The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has pinpointed seven zones for the aerial survey. “This comprehensive process will unfold in multiple phases, with the initial focus on conducting drone surveys in 15 villages. The entire drone survey is slated for completion within a strict six-month timeframe,” added the CMO in the statement.
The selection of the contractor agency and allocation of manpower for the project will be carried out through the e-bidding process. Drone survey will help in the process of mapping and marking the industrial region.
“Preparations are being made to conduct drone surveys in the villages of Zone 5 and 6, Zone 7, Zone 9, Zone 3, Zone 8 and Zone 4 under YEIDA. It is noteworthy that this drone survey will be unique in many respects and through this the process of mapping and marking the infrastructure and geographical conditions of the villages will be completed,” added the CMO in the statement.
The contracted agencies entrusted with the survey will not only have the responsibility to complete the task but also possess the authority to allocate manpower in order to achieve the specified targets, said the CMO, adding “to facilitate the survey process, the agency will establish camps, deploying engineers and technical staff as required”.
Also, the CMO said that preparations are underway for construction of underground water reservoirs in Sector 29. In addition to YEIDA’s ongoing survey activities, various development projects are concurrently underway. “Notably, efforts are in progress to complete the road, drainage, sewer, and water supply infrastructure in Pocket 6D, Sector 18. Simultaneously, preparations are being made for the construction of underground water reservoirs at multiple locations in Sector 29,” added the CMO in the statement.
A comprehensive project report is in the works for the establishment of a Fintech hub in the YEIDA region. The process of engaging consultants to complete this report has been initiated.
