This strategic initiative aims to maximize the utility of these lands, primarily for the development of bus depots, through a streamlined approach.
Transport Minister Pratap Sarnaik unveiled the ambitious plan during a Naredco event.
He also announced the imminent release of 160 tenders, inviting real estate developers to overlook urban biases and consider these new opportunities for developing commercial or residential structures.
Renowned architect Hafeez Contractor will lead the planning process, ensuring efficient and effective development.
MSRTC will act as the project approval authority, streamlining the sanctioning of project plans.
This approach aims to attract more developers by extending land lease terms from 60 to 99 years, although these changes will not apply in forest or no-development zones.
The MSRTC’s land bank is strategically located, offering numerous potential benefits.
By developing these lands, the corporation aims to enhance its infrastructure and services, contributing to the overall growth and development of the region.
The extended lease terms and streamlined approval processes are expected to make these projects more appealing to real estate developers, fostering a robust and sustainable development environment.
The initiative is a significant step towards modernizing the state’s transport infrastructure.
It not only addresses the immediate needs of the MSRTC but also creates opportunities for economic growth and urban development.
With the involvement of renowned professionals and a clear roadmap, the project is poised to deliver substantial benefits for both the public and private sectors.
