Bhubaneswar: The civic body and the Bhubaneswar Smart City Limited (BSCL) plan to come up with three modern parks in the Saheed Nagar area by March.

The three parks are BDA-OMC Park, Robot Park and a community garden near Sparsh Hospital.

The parks will be equipped with Wi-Fi, toilets and water ATMs, among other facilities. The work on the parks had started in April last year and it is nearing completion.

Local councillor Saswati Mishra said that most of the basic work in all the parks was finished and the contractor was now giving finishing touch. "We are about to take up wall painting in the parks. We hope to be able to throw the parks open by March," said Mishra.She said the parks would be one-of-their-kind facilities.

The parks, which have been named as "smart parks", will have splash park, butterfly park, sensory garden, open gyms with air walker, sit-up bench, air swing, twister, set back or glider, push and pull up chair, knee or hip raise on parallel bars, big shoulder wheel, spinner and bench with fixed dumb bell.

The parks will also have watchtowers from where people can enjoy an aerial view of the surroundings.

Mayor Ananta Narayan Jena said that the new parks would give people a unique experience.

"The parks will be promoted as learning and recreational centres," he said.
