The existing sectors of Chandigarh and Mohali were developed based on a grid layout, and when Chandigarh was originally designed and Mohali was subsequently planned, the connecting roads were constructed based on the same grid pattern, officials said.

The GMADA is now focused on new sectors, such as 93 to 114, which fall within the railway line’s boundaries. Roads in these sectors will also be built following the grid layout to maintain consistency in urban planning.
