SHIMLA: Himachal Pradesh public works and urban development minister Vikramaditya Singh on Monday inaugurated the much-awaited lift in Middle Bazaar that is connected to the Mall in Shimla under the Smart City Mission.
A flat fee of Rs 10 would be charged from each user and one can reach Mall Road directly from Middle Bazaar. Eight people will be able to travel in the lift at a time. The ticket will be valid for 12 hours.
"This lift will be beneficial particularly for senior citizens and tourists," Vikramaditya Singh said at a gathering.
The Rapid Transport System Development Corporation (RTDC) will operate the lift for five years. The responsibility of its maintenance has also been given to RTDC. The lift was built at a cost of Rs 1.77 crore and was completed in two years. While the length of the foot overbridge is 24 metres, it is 1.5 metres wide.
