Summary:
Mysuru: One of the oldest streets in the city, Thyagaraja Road , whose quaint houses and leisurely atmosphere are a throwback to another era, is all set for its tryst with modernity. We will install a total of 16 feeder boxes, and as many lights along the street,” the corporator said.A beaming Manjunath said that Thyagaraja Road would be wireless in a month. After Thyagaraja Road, plans are afoot to implement the project in other parts of Mysuru as well.The road, which extends from Madhav Rao Circle to the Chamaraja Double Road Junction, will be shorn of wires in the near future. The ugly tangle of wires that strike a dissonant note on the eye, when one scans the road, are all set to go underground. However, this old road is now all set for its tryst with technology – the street will become the first wireless road in the city.The overhead cables that dangle from poles, and hang over rooftops on the road are set to become history, in what is being seen as an emulation of the endeavor at Vittal Mallya Road in Bengaluru..
