Mehsana, October 29 (Daily Kiran) : The Dharoia tourism project in Gujarat’s Mehsana district is nearing completion, with 95% of the work finished. S.S. Patel, the executive engineer in charge of the Dharoia Headworks Division, announced that the basic infrastructure, including roads, electricity, drainage, and a water sports arena, has been completed. The riverfront development is in its final stages and is expected to be finished within the next three to four months.

To enhance tourism in the area, an Adventure Fest will also be organized, aimed at attracting visitors to the newly developed site. Patel emphasized that accommodations such as tent cities, hotels, and resorts are being established to cater to future tourists, encouraging private investors to contribute to the project.

Patel noted that the first phase of the Dharoia tourism project includes the completion of road networks, buildings, cafes, restaurants, gardens, plazas, water supply, electricity, landscaping, and hardscaping.

In the second phase, development will focus on the riverfront and related activities, including a theater and promenades. The Dharoia Dam, situated on the Sabarmati River and approximately 75 kilometers from Ahmedabad, is being developed as a global tourism destination.

Facilities being developed include an adventure water sports arena, an amphitheater by the riverfront, upper and lower promenades, Panchatatva Park, Nad Brahma Udyan, and a water experience park.
