KOLKATA: The development of the new Majerhat bridge, which is able to see several underground cables and application strains being shifted, will also result in a wide area around Alipore being cordoned off. This, in addition to the rising drive of automobiles on both Hyde Road and the Bailey bridges, have led the civic companies to think about alternative ways and widening of existing roads to take on the rush of automobiles.
PWD and KMC have come together to increase the go out highway from Raja Santosh Road parallel to the Majerhat flyover. This will serve two purposes. Firstly, automobiles coming from Garden Reach flyover will get an instantaneous go out to Diamond Harbour Road, and secondly, automobiles from Raja Santosh Road that have come around the Bailey bridges will get a faster go out.
However, visitors officers said the true purpose at the back of the growth of the one-lane highway right into a two-lane one is to help channel both Behala-bound and Mominpore-bound automobiles thru a single highway. “One of the two means roads (one on each side of the prevailing bridge) shall be cordoned off for the construction of the new bridge within the subsequent 15 days. We will need the other one to deal with the extra load. In other phrases, if one means is close, we want the other to take the weight of both up and down automobiles. In addition, we need to make sure that the larger machinery and trucks carrying development subject material have a clean entry to the construction web site. With the Metro already carrying out development of the Majerhat Metro station, the duty will not be easy,” explained an officer from the southwest visitors guard.
Police and the civic companies also held intensive conferences on Thursday to work out a plan wherein the proposed expanded highway can be connected to the Bailey bridge. “All automobiles headed in opposition to Kidderpore can take that highway and the ones headed in opposition to Alipore zoo can apply the Alipore Park Road,” said a source at Lalbazar.
The development of the bridge — prone to cross on for two years — will hit bus passengers the most. Cops said they have been in talks with the delivery department to fix the routes of certain buses after complaints that some buses have been taking other routes to go back to Behala. “With the Gangasagar buses prone to begin operations from this Sunday — they are anticipated to make 1,600 trips within the subsequent two weeks — we wish to repair the routes of native buses,” said a source.
Sergeants said the slowmoving goods trains have been proving the most important hurdle for visitors waft. “While we're operating the gates at a gap of four to 6 mins, goods trains are retaining up visitors for around 10 mins,” said an officer.
