This could be some good news for Belgaumites, not that all would change in a flash, but the traffic woes at major rail crossings in city could be averted as the Central government has given its primary approval for building of THREE over bridges over railway crossings in the city.
Three places approved are :
Old PB Road
Kapileshwar Road
Congress road
A Bhubneshwar based company has done the primary survey and submitted its report. The centre will bear 90% of the cost and the state will have to shell the remaining.
This is god news no doubt but this will take a lot of time and the project to be implemented in real terms could even take upto 2 years.
