Tag: Construction of New Service Lane on Railway Overbridge Ambala Begins

Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister, Sh. Anil Vij announced that the National Highway Authority has commenced work on constructing a new service lane on the railway overbridge (ROB) in front of Shastri Colony, located along GT Road in Ambala Cantonment. This service lane is being constructed at an estimated cost of Rs. 30 crore. Once completed, vehicle drivers will be able to cross the overbridge via the service lane without merging onto the main GT Road. Additionally, a new service lane will be built on the overbridge for vehicles traveling from Delhi to Ambala Cantonment, near the Padav Police Station. Sh. Vij held meeting with officials from the National Highway Authority regarding the project and instructed them to complete the work swiftly. He also directed that the connecting road coming from the Railway Colony under the ROB be constructed as per established standards. *New Service Lanes to Streamline Traffic Flow and Improve Connectivity* Sh. Vij explained that currently, the service lane from Delhi ends in front of Padav Police Station, after which vehicles must merge onto the GT Road to continue toward the bus stand. With the new construction, the service lane will extend beyond Padav Police Station and connect with the existing service lane section further ahead. Similarly, for vehicles traveling from Ambala Cantonment toward Delhi, the current service lane merges onto the GT Road. Now, a new lane will be constructed over the railway line, connecting with the service lane leading to Shastri Colony. Service lanes on both sides of GT Road will allow local vehicles to cross the railway overbridge without needing to drive on the main GT Road, easing congestion and improving safety. *Service Lane Being Constructed at a Cost of Rs. 30 Crore – Vij* Cabinet Minister Anil Vij stated that the National Highway Authority is constructing the service lane at a cost of approximately Rs.30 crore. Piling work has already commenced adjacent to the railway overbridge. The authority has set a timeline of around 1.5 years for completing the project. Vij emphasized that this new service lane will benefit thousands of residents of Ambala Cantonment by allowing seamless travel over the railway overbridge via the service lane itself. Areas expected to benefit include Chandpuri, Railway Colony, DRM Complex, Sundar Nagar, Machhauda, Shahpur, Ghasitpur, Sector residents, Vidya Nagar, Kuldeep Nagar, Nanheda, Rangia Mandi, Shastri Colony, and others. The lane will also provide a convenient route to and from the Shaheedi Smarak (Martyrs’ Memorial). On this occasion, NHAI Deputy Manager Vishal Kesrwani, site engineer Pulkit, BJP leader Kapil Vij and other officials.
