Thuamul Rampur: A long-awaited connectivity project for residents of Indravati reservoir area in Kalahandi district has moved a step forward with the completion of a preliminary DGPS survey for a proposed 246-meter high-level bridge at Ghutrukhala Tuesday.<\/p>\n
The bridge, estimated to be part of a Rs 125 crore project, will connect Talnagi, Ghutrukhala and Maligaon by crossing the Indravati reservoir. The survey was completed with officials from the Works Department inspecting the proposed site and taking measurements using DGPS equipment.<\/p>\n
The survey team included Superintending Engineer Nanda Kishore Karar, Chief Construction Engineer Bijan Kumar Jena, Sub-Divisional Officer Ananta Pradhan and Junior Engineer Miniketan Karji. They examined the geographical location, measurements and proposed construction site for the bridge.<\/p>\n
The project also includes about 3.6 kilometres of approach roads on both sides of the proposed bridge. Once completed, the infrastructure is expected to improve road connectivity for several remote tribal villages separated by the Indravati reservoir.<\/p>\n
According to reports, the proposed road and bridge will also provide direct connectivity between the Indravati area and neighbouring Rayagada and Nabarangpur districts.<\/p>\n
With the survey completed, the Works Department is expected to begin the tender process soon, officials said.<\/p>\n
