Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari announced a proposal to build a flyover at Bhoma, aiming to reduce congestion on the main thoroughfare.
Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari has put forward a plan to construct a flyover at Bhoma, a locality that has been experiencing increasing traffic bottlenecks. The proposal, presented during a recent meeting with state officials, seeks to provide a grade-separated crossing that will streamline movement on the busy arterial road.
The ministry indicated that the flyover will be designed to accommodate both motor vehicles and public transport, with an emphasis on safety and reduced travel time for commuters. Preliminary surveys are expected to begin within the next few weeks, followed by detailed project reports and cost estimates.
Local authorities welcomed the initiative, noting that the infrastructure upgrade could spur economic activity in the surrounding area. While a definitive timeline has not been set, officials expect the project to move to the implementation stage once clearances are obtained.
The proposal aligns with the central government's broader push to improve road connectivity across the country, particularly in rapidly urbanising regions where traffic congestion hampers productivity.
Stakeholders, including nearby residents and business owners, have been invited to provide feedback during the planning phase to ensure the flyover meets community needs.
