Lucknow’s First Grid Road System Set to Begin in July

20 Jun 2025 CW Team

The grid road network will include roads of 45, 30, 24, and 18 metres in width, laid out in a rectangular pattern, offering multiple routes through intersecting streets. LDA Vice-Chairman Prathamesh Kumar has instructed Chief Engineer Navneet Sharma to initiate development as per the approved layout.

The project has gained traction through active land pooling, with 39 landowners across five villages contributing over 185.95 acres of land free of cost. On Thursday, two stakeholders from a private company handed over 50,167 sq m in Mohari Khurd, boosting momentum. A site office is also being set up in Mohari Khurd, staffed by naib tehsildars, amins, lekhpals, and support personnel to expedite agreements.

The master plan for IT City includes 5,000 residential plots ranging from 72 to 200 sq m, along with larger plots for group housing. The scheme will also offer 445.65 acres for industrial use and 260 acres for commercial development, designed to attract private investment and create employment opportunities.

Additionally, a 200-acre golf city and 15-acre water body have been planned to promote green and eco-friendly urban living. These features are expected to significantly improve livability and environmental sustainability in the township.

LDA Joint Secretary Sushil Pratap Singh confirmed that land acquisition from other villages is progressing well. The IT City draws land from 10 villages in Mohanlalganj tehsil, including Bakkas, Sonai Kanjehra, Sikandarpur Amoliya, Siddhpura, Parehta, Pahadnagar Tikaria, Rakibabad, Mohari Khurd, Khujauli, and Bhatwara.

With infrastructure work set to commence and increasing support from landowners, LDA’s IT City is emerging as a flagship urban zone, poised to transform Lucknow’s development landscape and boost economic growth.
