Digha beach promenade upgrade enters its final phase

Work on the 2.1 kilometre promenade between Old Digha and New Digha has entered its final phase, with wider walkways, accessible ramps and four lifeguard towers due for completion before the winter season.

The district administration said the walkway will be separated from the carriageway by a planted median, and that hawking zones will be marked at three points along the route.

Travellers should expect partial closures during the final weeks of work. The administration has not confirmed an opening date, and fishing activity near the southern ramp may be restricted while the towers are installed.
