Vandalur Zoo makes plans for heavy Pongal footfall

Posted on: 01/Jan/2018 10:31:14 AM
Authorities at the Arignar Anna Zoological Park in Vandalur hope to cope with the high visitor count during Pongal by introducing online booking for entry tickets, as well as for facilities such as the lion safari.

In an official communication, a senior official said, The online services will be launched around Pongal. We have also installed Point of Sales (PoS) machines at counters. We are planning to procure additional wheelchairs, which will be offered to the visitors free of cost. To monitor the crowd, 32 CCTV cameras will soon be installed on the premises. We are also planning to buy two more battery-operated vehicles, for which sanction has been accorded. The zoo already has 13 such vehicles. We are also in talks with the Assam and Bihar governments to introduce rhinoceroses to the zoo. We had a rhinoceros 14 years ago and it attracted a lot of visitors. We are looking at bringing king cobras too.

The management recently organised a review meeting to draft plans to help people have a memorable experience at the zoo.
