New Delhi: All industrial areas of the national capital would be developed with modern infrastructure and signal window system would also be provided for fast development of industries, Yusuf said.

He said the services of Wazirpur Industrial Area, spread over 210 acres, were taken over from North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) in December last year.

“Total length of all roads of Wazirpur Industrial Area, with road width varying from six to 25 metres, is 18.6 kilometres.

The industrial area is on the top of production of stainless steel products and exported goods worth Rs 1,000 crore per annum.

The scope of work includes redevelopment and up-gradation of 2,829 metre length with cement concrete roads, he said, adding DSIIDC intends to upgrade the infrastructure of the industrial areas by improving roads and drains as well as footpaths.
