MCG Launches ₹606 Crore Waste Collection Project and New C&D Waste Facilities in Gurugram

The Municipal Corporation of Gurugram (MCG) has launched two major initiatives to improve waste management in the city. A ₹606.66 crore project divides Gurugram into two clusters for door-to-door waste collection, with contracts awarded for five years and a focus on technology-driven operations. Additionally, MCG plans to establish seven new construction and demolition (C&D) waste collection points equipped with segregation facilities and surveillance, aiming to regulate debris disposal and enhance processing at existing plants. Both projects include complaint redressal mechanisms and strict operational guidelines.
