Jaipur: For the engineers of the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA), who are involved in the Jhotwara Railway Over Bridge project, the most challenging part of the work would start now as they will have to work in the middle of a running traffic.
The engineers have to construct the surface of the remaining portion of the under-construction ramp, between the Lata Circle and Niwaru Road and exit. Once the new ramp gets fully constructed the engineers have to remove the divider between the two flanks of the old bridge and convert the entire road of the old bridge into Lata Circle-bound flank.
“All our pillars for the new ramp have been constructed. Now we have to lay down the surface. The most challenging part is that our engineers and workers have to work in the midst of the huge traffic over the ROB. In no way, we can stop the traffic over ROB even for 10 minutes,” said a JDA engineer.
JDA is constructing a three-lane ramp from Lata Circle to Chomu Circle adjacent to the old existing ROB. The width of both lanes of the existing ROB together, without the divider, is equivalent to a three-lane road. So, after completion, the three-lane would cater to the Panipench-bound traffic, while both the lanes of existing ROB would together cater to the Lata Circle-bound traffic.
Another important addition to this project is a ramp from the Khatipura Road that would connect the Panipench-bound under construction ramp. Traffic from the Khatipura Road intending to go to Niwaru Road or to Panipench-side can take this ramp to reach the ROB without going till the Jhotwara crossing.
“The construction work for this ramp is completed and this ramp has already been connected to the under construction main ramp of the ROB,” an engineer added.
All engineers are hopeful that they would be able to complete the project by February 2024. “There are no more acquisition hurdles. More than 85% of the construction work has been completed and the rest 10 to 15% would move smoothly,” said another engineer.

Jhotwara ROB: JDA engrs face challenges amid traffic
Engineers from the Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) are facing a challenging task as they work on the Jhotwara Railway Over Bridge project amidst heavy traffic. The engineers are currently constructing the surface of the remaining portion of the under-construction ramp and will later convert the old bridge into a one-way road. The project is expected to be completed by February 2024, with 85% of the construction work already finished.

UDH min inaugurates part of Jhotwara ROB
The Urban development and housing minister virtually inaugurated a section of the Jhotwara Road Over Bridge (ROB) in Jaipur. The bridge, named Rao Shekhaji ROB, was built at a cost of Rs 167 crore. The remaining work on the project is expected to be completed soon. The new bridge will help alleviate traffic congestion for around 10 lakh people living in the area. The construction of the bridge has affected around 642 houses/shops, and the owners have been rehabilitated through various schemes.

ROB work at Navalur to be completed by Nov
The railway overbridge (ROB) construction at Navalur, Dharwad has been extended until November due to delays caused by rain and elections. The BRTS officials have been instructed to complete the project within the deadline. The work on the ROB had been discontinued due to disturbances and disputes but was restarted in 2021. Once completed, both ways of the ROB will be opened. The construction work has been expedited and is expected to be complete by next month.
