REASI: District Development Commissioner Reasi Kumar Abhishek today chaired a meeting to review the progress of slope stabilization and road restoration works at the vulnerable stretch on the R-A-M Road. During the meeting, issues related to BMG Road and Mahore Market Road were also discussed in detail.
The meeting discussed the ongoing restoration works aimed at strengthening the road, preventing further slope failure and ensuring smooth and safe movement of traffic. Officials informed the chair that heavy rainfall, increased hydrostatic pressure and surface erosion had damaged the uphill formation and affected the road infrastructure.
The restoration plan includes construction of toe walls, retaining walls, breast walls and a lined drain along with other protective measures for long-term stabilization of the vulnerable stretch. Advanced slope stabilization measures, including anchoring and soil protection works, are also being taken up based on technical assessments.
The DDC directed the executing agency and GREF officials to expedite the works while maintaining quality and adhering strictly to safety standards. He stressed the need for immediate protective measures at the vulnerable location to safeguard commuters.
He also directed the concerned agency to closely monitor the site and ensure timely completion of the restoration works, particularly in view of the ongoing monsoon conditions. EO 58 RR S.K. Singh, ADC Rakesh Kumar and other concerned officers attended the meeting, while OC GREF Major Niranjan attended the meeting virtually.
