the Setu Nigam, Traffic Police, and RVNL. This arrangement will come into effect from Sunday, July 28. The road traffic will be closed from 11:00 AM to 4:00 PM on bridge number 120, known as the Sohbatiyabagh railway underbridge. It has also been agreed that road traffic will not be stopped on Monday during the month of Sawan and on Shivaratri. Currently, girders have been placed on one section of the bridge. The remaining girders will be placed from Sunday onwards. During this time, citizens will have to use the railway underbridge from Tikonia to CMP College or the Rambag railway overbridge.

Prayagraj : गंगा नदी पर बने पुल की तर्ज पर बनेगा सोहबतियाबाग रेल अंडरब्रिज, RVNL ने शुरू किया निर्माण

The first rail underbridge (RUB) in Prayagraj city is being constructed in a unique manner, resembling a bridge over the Ganga River. The Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) has started the construction work. The launch of girders is in progress at Bridge No. 120 in Sohbatiyabagh with the help of a...

large crane. Some girders have already been launched on one side of the RUB. The RVNL is now awaiting road traffic block for launching girders for the remaining section. If the traffic police grants a block, the construction of the 150-foot long RUB is expected to be completed in about three weeks. The RVNL is constructing this bridge differently from other RUBs, using a design similar to bridges built over rivers. This design, known as 'Open Web Girder' in railway terminology, is being implemented for the first time in Prayagraj city on the Sohbatiyabagh RUB, mirroring the bridge over the Ganga River connecting Daraganj and Jhunsi. The Barehna RUB will also be built in the same style.

Prayagraj mein pehli baar ek aisa rail underbridge (RUB) ban raha hai jo Ganga nadi par bane bridge ki tarah hoga. Rail Vikas Nigam Limited (RVNL) ne is bridge ka nirman kaam shuru kar diya hai. Sohbatiyabagh mein Bridge No. 120 pe ek badi crane ki madad se girders launch kiye...

ja rahe hain. RUB ke ek chhor par kuchh girders launch bhi kar diye gaye hain. Ab baaki hisse mein girders launch ke liye RVNL ko road traffic block ka intezaar hai. Agar traffic police block deti hai to takreeban teen saptah mein 150 feet lamba RUB ka nirman poora ho jaayega. RVNL yeh bridge dusre RUBs ke muqable kuchh alag tarike se bana raha hai. Is bridge ki design nadiyon par banaye jaane waale bridge ki jaisi hi hai. Railway ise apni bhasha mein Open Web Girder kehta hai. Daraganj ko Jhunshi se jodne ke liye Ganga nadi par bane bridge ki tarah Prayagraj city mein pehli baar Sohbatiyabagh RUB par railway Open Web Girder laga raha hai. Barehna RUB bhi isi tarah banaya jaayega.

एक अरब की सैन्य भूमि पर फ्लाईओवर के नीचे बनेगी सड़क

The Indian Army has agreed to provide land for a new road near the second part of the under-construction flyover in Alopi Bagh, Prayagraj. The land, valued at ₹1,01,38,58,274, will be used to create a new road connecting Daraganj and Bairehna. The land transfer will involve an exchange of land...

of equal value. The land being provided is classified as A-1, B-3, and A-2 and will only be used for the road construction, with no other development allowed. The decision to provide the land was made by the Chief of Army Staff, Manoj Pandey. A formal handover of the land will take place at the local level. The Army had previously provided land for a double railway line between Varanasi and Prayagraj's Rambag railway line, and this new road is being built alongside the second part of the flyover. The flyover construction has led to the closure of the road for all vehicles, forcing people to use the route through the Parade Ground to travel between Alopi Bagh and Bairehna.

Prayagraj mein Alopi Bagh mein ban raha flyover ke dusre hisse ke paas, ek nayi road banai jaayegi. Daraganj aur Bairehna ko jodne wali yeh road, Army ki zameen par banegi. Army ne yeh zameen dene ke liye haan kar di hai. Army Chief Manoj Pandey ne yeh zameen road ke...

liye dene ki approval de di hai. Is zameen ki kimat ₹1,01,38,58,274 hai. Army Chief ne Defence Estate ke DG ko zameen transfer karne ka letter bheja hai. Yeh zameen 11,220 square meter (2.7725 acre) hai, aur PWD (Public Works Department) ko di jaayegi. Ismein ek condition bhi hai ki zameen ke badle same value ki zameen Army ko di jaayegi. Zameen ke types A-1, B-3, aur A-2 hain. Is zameen par sirf road hi banai jaayegi, koi aur construction nahi hoga. Kumbh Mela officer Vijay Kiran Anand ne yeh jankari di hai ki ab is zameen ke transfer ki formality local level par puri ki jaayegi. Isse pehle bhi Army ne Varanasi-Prayagraj Rambag railway line ke beech double railway line banane ke liye zameen di thi. Flyover ka dusra hissa road par ban raha hai aur uske saath hi Alopi Bagh aur Bairehna ke beech Parade ki taraf yeh nayi road banai jaayegi. Abhi flyover banane ke kaam ki wajah se, road par sabhi types ke vehicles ko rok diya gaya hai. Alopi Bagh se Bairehna jaane ke liye log Parade Ground se ho kar ja rahe hain.
