ECO-RESTORATION OF 8 LAKES, Coimbatore:

Coimbatore is blessed to have the hills, the lakes, and the river as its natural setting – with lovely sunset views behind the Western Ghats, lovely breeze and a pleasant climate – it is always fun to be outside in the evenings. Under the Smart City mission, the city focuses on rejuvenating its lakes, removing all the encroachments and reclaiming the lakefronts as public open space with newly designed spaces along the lakefronts.

The city shall re-establish its lost connection with nature and shall aim to showcase its natural heritage better, both for the residents and the tourists alike.

A 20-km long Cycle-Walk Connector Greenway is being developed to connect all lakes.
