Imagine Panaji Smart City Development Ltd. (IPSCDL) plans to undertake a comprehensive study to assess the condition of Panaji’s core infrastructure, with a focus on roads, drainage systems, waterworks, and heritage buildings.
To support this effort, IPSCDL has floated a tender to appoint a consultant to prepare a detailed concept plan. Estimated at ₹97 lakh and funded under the Special Assistance to States for Capital Investment (2025–26), the study will cover traffic assessments, structural designs, drainage planning, 3D modelling, and related analyses.
Special emphasis will be placed on the Fontainhas Latin Quarter—recognised by UNESCO for its heritage value—ensuring the preservation of its colonial-era architecture. The study is slated for completion by 15 December, after which the findings will be reviewed by the government before moving ahead with revitalisation initiatives.
