ABSTRACT | ||
At 1921 Union board was established in Bolpur. In 1951 Bolpur Municipality was formed.Before that Bolpur was a rural area, some areas like Bandhgora, Bolpur, Makarampur were merged and made a municipal settlement called Bolpur Municipality. Being a rural area, the settlements were not planned and also the roads were narrow somewhere it is too much. So, researcher observes that there are no footpaths and that’s why the common people walk through the main road, if a big vehicle enters a traffic problem will arise. Mainly at the office time, the people of this town face a big traffic problem. Some roads like Station Road, Ramkrisna road, Chowrasta, Chitra more etc. are very congested. From long time the side of the roads and drains are occupied by the hawkers and illegal shops. In recent days District administration and Bolpur Municipality, taking action against the illegal constructions. They are trying to recover the roads, drains, and govt. properties. In both sides of the 25% of the road were occupied by the hawkers. If the road is restored many problems will be solved. | ||
