ROAD TO BE BUILT

RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA-------------------------The path is now clear for the construction of the vital road connecting Shahpur and Banahi, via Jagdishpur.

The construction work, which had been stalled for a long time due to technical reasons, has received the green light following a revision of the project estimate. This has raised hopes among local residents that they will soon be relieved of the dilapidated road.

To be constructed at a cost of approximately ₹10.36 crore, the road will be built using the FDR (Full Depth Reclamation) technique. This route, which connects three National Highways, had been awaiting construction for about four years due to various reasons.

The stalled construction caused significant hardship for those traveling along this route. The poor condition of the road created difficulties for both motorists and local villagers.

Former MLA Rahul Tiwari stated that the technical hurdles regarding the road construction have been resolved. With the revision of the project estimate, the way is now clear for construction to begin.

Meanwhile, the current MLA, Rakesh Ranjan, had also held multiple discussions with the concerned minister and departmental officials regarding the construction of this road.

It has been stated that the contractor has been set a target to complete the construction and hand over the road by the month of November. Once completed, this road will provide greater convenience for travel to the residents of Shahpur, the Banahi station area, Jagdishpur, and the surrounding regions.
