Ahmedabad: The Amdavad Municipal Corporation (AMC) has approved a major development and renovation project for Lambha Lake, located in the Lambha Ward of the South Zone, aimed at improving public recreation facilities and enhancing the area’s infrastructure.

The project falls under the tender titled “Construction of compound walls, walkways and other necessary works around lakes and municipal plots in various wards of the South Zone.”

The work has been awarded to JR Builders at a tender amount of ₹4.41 crore, which is 11.71 percent below the estimated cost. Administrative approval was granted vide Standing Committee Resolution No. 1743 dated December 18, 2025.

Key Features of the Project

• Total plot area: 1,87,491 square metres

• Installation of a fountain at the centre of the lake garden

• Protective grills along the lake walkway

• New kerbing along the lake walkway and garden pathways

• Masonry work in the surrounding canal, including decorative fencing and painting

• RCC road construction from the central garden circle up to the main road

• Paver block work from the Lambha gate to the garden office and from the central circle to the lake walkway

• Painting of compound walls, grills and kerbs inside the garden

• Repair and painting of garden gates at the Lambha village and Laxmipura village entrances

The Lambha Ward covers a vast area of 45.58 square kilometres, comprising Lambha village, Laxmipura village, Narol Court area, Saijpur, Ranipur, Shahwadi, Gopalpur, Gyaspur, Piplaj, Kamod and surrounding localities.

At present, residents of Lambha village, Laxmipura village and nearby areas lack adequate recreational spaces around the lake. Considering the rapid development of the ward and the large number of devotees visiting the Lambha Baliyadev Temple, the AMC has planned comprehensive development and renovation of Lambha Lake to provide walking and leisure facilities for citizens.

Once completed, the project is expected to significantly enhance the aesthetic appeal of Lambha Lake while providing residents with safe walking tracks, landscaped gardens and improved public amenities. DeshGujarat
