Road Digging Prohibited from Ashad 1 to Bhadra End

The Federal Road Supervision and Monitoring Office Implements Ban on Road Digging.

The Federal Road Supervision and Monitoring Office has issued a directive prohibiting road digging from Ashad 1 to Bhadra End. This decision comes as a response to the office's concern regarding the challenges of repairing roads immediately during the rainy season, thus maintaining their functional state.

The office has specifically highlighted that road excavation for water, sewage, electricity, telephone, and similar purposes will not be permitted during this period. The ban aims to prevent further deterioration of the roads, which would be difficult to restore promptly due to the adverse weather conditions.

According to an official notice, no authorization will be granted for road digging within the jurisdiction of this office, spanning from Ashad 1 to the end of Bhadra. Furthermore, the notice warns that strict action will be taken in accordance with the Public Roads Act 2031 against anyone found forcibly digging the road.

One of the primary reasons behind this prohibition is the lack of coordination among government agencies, resulting in increased complaints of road demolition and construction in urban areas. To mitigate inconvenience caused to the public, the office has decided to halt road excavation for a period of three months, acknowledging the inability to expedite repairs promptly after heavy rainfall.

Overall, the Federal Road Supervision and Monitoring Office's decision to ban road digging from Ashad 1 to Bhadra End seeks to address the challenges associated with repairing roads during the rainy season. By enforcing this prohibition, the office aims to maintain smooth traffic flow and prevent further deterioration of the road infrastructure.
