Prohibition of traffic
This bridge has been an important bridge connecting Waldocks Road and Raja Muthiah Road. As the bridge was very old and dilapidated, a move was made to demolish the bridge and construct a new one a few years ago. For that, traffic was banned on this bridge in 2016.
Bridge by Railway Deptt
A 50 meter long section of this bridge was maintained by the railway department for a long time. At present, a project was planned to demolish this area and construct a bridge by the Railway Department to a length of 156.12 meters and to build a 364.23 meter road on both sides of the bridge by the Corporation of Saitala Road.
73 crore rupees
Accordingly, a railway flyover is being constructed for a length of 165.24 meters on the side of Valtax Road and 198.99 meters on the side of Raja Muthiya Road under the capital fund of Saitala Road Corporation at a cost of Rs.
Opening in June
In this case, Municipal Corporation Commissioner Radha Krishnan inspected the works related to this bridge. In this regard, he said, the final stage of work is underway. We have asked the railway department to hand over this bridge by the end of May. After their handover, the bridge will be opened for public use in June.
