A sewage line here, a cauvery water line there, a transformer move here etc.. As we had mentioned, we had requested BTP to help us with our traffic woes and given various suggestions. They did their study in response and came back to implement some interesting changes. Whether it worked or not, it sure woke people up. Many like it.
