| Project Title : | Survey Work On Una-Bhota Road Project In Himachal Pradesh |
| Company Name : | Ministry Of Road Transport And Highways |
| Project Detail : | The survey of the 70-km-long Bankhandi to Bhota via Una, Basoli national highway, which has got the approval of the Union Ministry for Road Transport and Highways in March 2015, can finally see the light of day with a private consultancy company having expressed interest in undertaking the work The ministry had notified the upgrade of the existing state road to the status of the NH in 2015. However, two previous attempts to invite tenders for conducting the survey work had been unsuccessful, said Harbans Lal Sharma, Executive Engineer of the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), Hamirpur Sharma said the third tender process was completed on April 25 and this time too only one Noida-based private consultancy firm had applied for undertaking the job. He said in the third tender process, even a single tender applicant was eligible to be considered for the allocation of job, provided it passed the laid down technical evaluation criteria Since the road route sanctioned by the ministry includes Basoli village, a bridge over a stretch of Gobind Sagar reservoir of the Bhakra dam lying in Una district will have to be constructed. The bridge is a long-standing demand of the people from Bangana subdivision since vehicles from Una have to travel an extra 18 km along the banks of the reservoir for their journey to Hamirpur and Mandi districts besides other villages of Una district located across the reservoir The Executive Engineer said the proposed 1-km-long bridge over the Gobind Sagar reservoir between Mandli and Lathiani villages besides a 250 to 300-m-long tunnel between Pir Nigaha and Bihru villages would be covered under the survey for the formulation of the detailed project report, adding that the final report on road design, route and cost estimates would be forwarded to the ministry for final approval |
