This proposal is for widening for road for augmentation of capacity for safe and efficient movement of traffic by upgrading to Two Lane with paved shoulder configuration based on the traffic demand. This will reduce time and cost of travel for public. Moreover only 12.8957 Ha. Forest area is diverted with no significant impact on existing flora and fauna so this proposal is recommended for acceptance and necessary approval in favour of the user agency. This project is recommended as this is an infrastructure development and public utility project. Project proponent is ready to bear all the Government levies hence the proposal is being recommended for approval for diverting the required forest land under Forest Conservation Act, 1980.
