SRINAGAR: Divisional Commissioner Kashmir, Anshul Garg, today chaired a high-level meeting of key stakeholder departments to deliberate on the alignment and implementation of major road infrastructure projects, including the Parimpora–Dalgate Flyover, Panthachowk Flyover, and the Srinagar Ring Road stretch from Panthachowk to Pandach.
The meeting was attended by the Chief Conservator Forests, Deputy Commissioner Srinagar, Commissioner Srinagar Municipal Corporation, Vice Chairman Srinagar Development Authority, Director Airport Authority, Senior Superintendent of Police (Traffic) Srinagar, Chief Engineers of KPDCL and Irrigation & Flood Control, along with senior officers from the Roads & Buildings Department, RTO, UEED, LCMA, Air Force, National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), BSF, and other concerned departments.
A threadbare deliberation was conducted on the proposed Parimpora–Dalgate Flyover, with discussions focusing on its alignment, project cost, anticipated impact on traffic flow, and implications for existing city utilities. It was decided to constitute a committee comprising officers from the stakeholder departments to undertake a comprehensive assessment of the project's impact and submit recommendations.
The meeting also discussed construction of the two parts of the Panthachowk–Pandrethan Flyover and decided to move ahead with the execution of the project. With regard to the Panthachowk–Pandach section of the Srinagar Ring Road, the meeting decided to undertake a fresh study of the proposed alignments to minimise the impact on residential areas. NHAI officials were directed to carry out a comparative evaluation of the suggested alignments and submit recommendations for the most suitable option.
Earlier, the meeting also discussed the proposed road from Ring Road Part-I via Sheikhpora to Airport Road and its potential impact on adjacent BSF security establishments. On the occasion, the Divisional Commissioner directed officers of the Air Force and BSF to hold joint consultations with the executing agency to explore a feasible solution that addresses the concerns of all stakeholder departments while ensuring timely implementation of the project.
