Overview

• On August 26, PWD minister Parvesh Verma met BISAG-N and department officials to advance a technology-led approach to managing Delhi’s roads.
• The PWD Road Asset Mapping Application under review would create a geo-tagged inventory of road assets and produce assembly-wise reports for oversight.
• A Project Monitoring System is being designed to track works over Rs 1 crore with real-time updates to spot delays and trigger corrective action.
• Teams are building a real-time dashboard for pothole and waterlogging complaints plus a street light tracker and dark spot monitoring tool that draw inputs from citizens, Delhi Police and elected representatives.
• No launch date has been announced, and the shift to digital monitoring follows a broader push to address accident-prone locations identified by police data.
