JAIPUR: The Jaipur Development Authority (JDA) plans to construct five 200-feet road in the city to reduce the vehicular pressure on arterial roads, including Gopalpura bypass, New Sanganer and Ajmer Road.
The move aims at providing direct connectivity to more than 100 colonies, including Privthi Raj Nagar scheme.
A nod has also been given in the JDA’s executive committee meeting to provide compensation the owners whose land will be acquired to construct these missing links.
As per the proposal one 200-feet wide road has been named as Vande Mataram Marg which will be constructed between Gopalpura Bypass and Diggi Malpura Road.
“The total length of the road is eight kilometre, out of which the JDA has already carried out construction in six kilometre.
In remaining two kilometre, the exercise to acquire land from the farmers will be initiated.
As decision has been taken to give the prompt compensation, it is believed that farmers will come forward to surrender their land.” Once Vande Mataram road is operational, residents of approximately 50 to 60 colonies will get direct connectivity to Kalyanpura railway overbridge.
The civic body will construct the second road parallel to the Vande Mataram Marg.
It will start from JDA’s West Way Height scheme on Ajmer Road and will pass through Gate No.
3 of Muhana Mandi to Diggi Malpura Road.
The total length of this road is 10 kilometres.
This road will ease the way for the people of about 40 colonies.
The third sector road of 200 feet will connect the first and second roads.
This road, about 7 km long, will directly connect the Ring Road from Golayawas Circle via Journalist Colony.
Similarly, fourth and fifth sector roads of 200-200 feet will also connect the first and second roads at different points.
An official said, “Residents of three dozen colonies will get direct connectivity with the construction of a road going from Goliawas Circle to the Ring Road via Patrakar Colony.
