he Uttar Pradesh Bridge Corporation will start Tthe construction of a four-lane railway over- bridge at Alamnagar Uthretiya bypass railway line on Banglabazaar-Bijnore road shortly. A senior official said that diversions will be implemented for six months (till August 31) after which they will begin the piling work. The on- ground work is expected to begin in a week’s time. “It will be a 1-km ROB to come up at the cost of Rs 120 crore. Indian Railways is bearing 50 per cent of the cost and the rest will be borne by the state government,” he said. Pointing out that the project got an approval just recently and that the general arrangement drawing has already been finalised, he said the main purpose of having the bridge is that the traf- fic congestion which occurs on Kanpur road can be mitigated. It will allow smooth traffic move- ment at the railway crossing which is closed 10- 15 times a day. The official said that the demand for the ROB was pending for a long time. “It will also prove to be an alternative route for those who come from Cantt side and experience traffic congestion on Kanpur road. Someone com- ing from Banglabazaar will straightaway go towards Shaheed Path and then towards the air- port. Traffic jams happening between Shaheed Path and Awadh crossing will be minimised to a large extent,” the official said. The other construction works of the Uttar Pradesh Bridge Corporations going on in the city included the construction of an elevated road from Shaheed Path to the airport and a bridge over Kukrail nullah for easing traffic snarls in Sarvodayanagar. It is a 69-metre-long bridge, pil- ing of which has started now. “There is also a Charak flyover proposed and its work has been put on hold because we have yet not received the NOC from the Archaeology department,” he pointed out. The official said that with several government departments constructing the bridges, the city will witness less traffic snarls in future. “Even the Lucknow Development Authority has proposed an elevated road connecting IIM road Kisan Path and Shaheed Path, and the state capital will see a lot of relief in the next four years,” he added.       !"J$ $ $  8 $ J 3N%G4 $ $ ** IAG4*4*4%    ((+,* ## @ )  J %.A*4A4*4% % /A O     \$   $     9:  "$ $ 9$<1 @ IA  * * * $ 9$ ;   , "   $(  C _      , ,    I 8 C    T     /A O    1+# http://etender.up.nic.in    !" #$%#&#'  9$  O    9  +    8  )5 1@,     )  $ T  OW   <1 9 $ $ ^$  @ +#0 # 1@,   #   5 4 @*  $,     1@   $, , $, <   9: $ *  ( 0$ #  8      "$  "$ `*  ) ( 7$  9  9  "$     (`*  ) (`*)   %4 & P .
