Rs 10.76 Crore Service Road Project Kicks Off in CM Bhagwant Mann’s Dhuri Constituency
Work has started on a Rs 10.76-crore service road project in Dhuri, the Assembly constituency of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann. Officials said the initiative is intended to ease traffic congestion and improve urban infrastructure in the town.
The project spans nearly 14.25 km within the Municipal Council limits. It involves building service roads on both sides of the covered drain passing through different parts of Dhuri. Authorities described it as one of several ongoing road connectivity efforts in the area.
The construction work was formally launched by Market Committee Chairman Rajwant Singh Ghulli and Dr Anwar Bhasaur, a member of the Punjab Waqf Board.
According to officials, the service roads will be developed along key stretches, including from Dhura village MC limits to Bagrian T-Point, Jagatpura to Bardrwal Road and Mansa Devi Temple Road, Sangrur Bypass to Kakrawal Bridge, and from Walia Studio to the Truck Union.
One side of the road will be laid with interlocking tiles, while the other side will have a bituminous surface.
Earlier this year, the Union Ministry of Railways approved Rs 54 crore for constructing a railway overbridge in Dhuri. Additionally, the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade under the Union Ministry of Commerce and Industry adopted Dhuri under the aspirational blocks programme. Officials added that projects worth about Rs 52 crore are underway or planned in the constituency. Recently, solar LED lights, CCTV cameras and other road projects were also completed.
