Chandigarh, January 23
With the efforts of Haryana Energy, Transport, and Labour Minister, Mr. Anil Vij, the state government has approved the repair of ten roads in both the urban and rural areas of Ambala Cantonment. An estimate for these repairs was submitted in June of last year and has now been approved in January.
Mr. Vij said that Rs 4.26 crore has been allocated for the repair of these roads, which will greatly benefit the local residents.
It is important to note that the Public Works Department (PWD) prepared the estimate for the repairs on June 13 of last year, and it was sent to the state government for approval. The approval was granted on January 16 of this year.
The road repairs will enhance the commuting experience for both city and rural residents, providing smoother travel for commuters.
Approval received for the repair of these roads
The repair work will include the following roads: from Panjokhra Sahib to Dhira Majra village, from Naraiangarh Highway to village Barnala, from Naraiangarh Highway to village Mandore, the link road from Tundla to the local Mandi, the link road from Panjokhra Sahib to Tundla, the repair of the road from Chandpura to Munnarheri on Jagadhari Road, the Rangia Mandi-Nanheda road near the FCI godown, the Nanheda to Rangia Mandi road from GT Road, the road from Shahpur to Machhounda, and the road from GT Road to Machhounda. All these repairs will be carried out at a cost of Rs 4.26 crore.
Development continues under the leadership of Cabinet Minister Anil Vij
It is worth mentioning that under the leadership of Cabinet Minister Sh Anil Vij, development work is ongoing in Ambala Cantonment. In addition to the main roads of the cantonment, the connecting roads are also being improved. Major roads like those in the Sadar area, as well as Jagadhari Road, Maheshnagar Road, and several others, have been completely renovated.
Moreover, a new road is being constructed from Tangri Dam Road to GT Road. This new route will provide drivers with a direct connection to GT Road via Jagadhari Road. Once completed, the road will offer greater convenience to residents of Shahpur, Machhunda, Chandrapuri, Sundarnagar, Sector residents, Ghasitpur, and surrounding areas, making it easier for them to access the cantonment.
Ring road being built in Ambala Cantonment
With the efforts of Minister Sh Anil Vij, the construction of the ring road in Ambala Cantonment is progressing rapidly. At an estimated cost of around Rs 1,500 crore, the 40 km-long ring road will connect five national highways. This project is set to ease traffic congestion in the cantonment area. The ring road will allow drivers to travel from one highway to another without entering the city, significantly improving traffic flow and providing a smoother commuting experience.
