The city is set to transform a 37-hectare area into a bustling business quarter. The master plan, expected to be finalised by March next year, focuses on creating mainly laboratories and offices, benefiting from the proximity of BioCity-Campus and veterinary clinics.

The development, which excludes residential units, will breathe new life into the Old Market Grounds around the Kohlrabi Circus and the historic locomotive shed.
