New Delhi: The Delhi government will redesign and landscape all roads in the city managed by the Public Works Department, Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said on Tuesday. The government has selected nine roads in the first phase, the chief minister said at a press conference. He said all roads managed by the PWD will be redesigned in accordance with international standards. This will include landscaping and space for non-motorised vehicles and differently-abled persons.

"अभी ट्रायल बेसिस पर हम 9 सड़कों को रि-डिज़ाइन कर रहे हैं, जो लगभग 45 कि.मी. की होंगी। इससे ट्रैफिक की समस्या खत्म होगी और हम उम्मीद करते हैं कि इससे एक्सीडेंट भी खत्म हो जाएं" - @ArvindKejriwal pic.twitter.com/loWCbW66XT
