NAGPUR: MahaMetro officials worry that they may not have the ability to meet the target of completing Nagpur Metro by December 2019 due to issues in Reach 2 (Sitabuldi to Automotive Square). National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is yet to sanction the design and estimate of the double decker flyover on Kamptee Road. The record used to be submitted by MahaMetro over an year ago.
The Metro company is construction the construction on behalf of NHAI. Work on the flyover has started but is progressing at a sluggish tempo on one finish. MahaMetro has already spent Rs100 crore on the Rs750 crore flyover but NHAI is yet to pay a unmarried penny.
Land acquisition is the most important hurdle in building of the four.five kilometre long flyover. “MahaMetro wishes about four,000 square metre land near Gaddigodam Square for building of the ramp of the construction. As per NHAI norms, the company does not gain land inside municipal limits. Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) used to be requested to bear the price of obtaining the land,” said a supply in MahaMetro.
As NMC is cash-strapped it determined to hunt price range from state executive beneath Nagar Utthan Yojana. Under this scheme the civic company would pay 30% whilst remaining 70% can be borne by the state executive. Municipal commissioner had issued a letter to NHAI on this regard. However, NHAI wants a letter from district collector assuring that executive would pay its 70% proportion. Union shipping minister Nitin Gadkari had requested collector Ashwin Mudgal to expedite the topic.
The Metro supply said that Kamptee Road is 20 metre huge at the position where the ramp will come up. “We want 35m. Our column will occupy 3m and the ramp can be 15m huge. As per NHAI norms, the carrier highway besides the ramp should be 7.5m on both sides plus there should be a 1m huge footpath on both sides,” he added.
“We want to gain 150m stretch on Kamptee Road on both sides. Earlier, it used to be 250m but we diminished the duration by making the expanding the gradient of the ramp. It can’t be minimized additional,” said the supply.
NHAI regional officer said that his company would sanction the mission as soon as land used to be available. “However, work on the construction is progressing at a adequate tempo. If we've got not paid our proportion so have NMC and Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT),” he added.
