17 Dec 2024 CW Team

As part of its road safety initiative, Dana India installed 30 high-mast solar streetlights at Alandi Phata Chowk in Chakan. This new lighting infrastructure enhances visibility, significantly reducing the risk of accidents for approximately 3,600 villagers and travelers. This initiative aligns with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy and Goal 13: Climate Action.

To further enhance safety, Dana India implemented road safety signage and installed metal barricades in Chakan’s industrial area, aiming to regulate traffic and protect pedestrians. These measures are expected to benefit approximately 2.5 lakh commuters daily and contribute to Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals.

Additionally, road divider railings were installed at critical points, such as Endurance Chowk, improving road visibility and safety for over 3 lakh people. This initiative supports Goal 3: Good Health and Well-being, Goal 7: Affordable and Clean Energy, Goal 15: Life on Land, and Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals.

Dana India also upgraded street lighting in key locations across the Chakan Industrial Area and Endurance Chowk, further improving nighttime safety for an estimated 3 lakh individuals. These efforts align with Goal 11: Sustainable Cities and Communities and Goal 15: Life on Land.
