Rapid Road is only considered if there is quality, low cost

Chief Minister Basavaraja Bommai said that the rapid roads constructed using pre-cost technology will be considered after checking the quality and rates.

Today, on behalf of BBMP, CV Raman inaugurated the experimentally constructed rapid road in the assembly constituency and said that along with good roads, cost reduction is very important. He said that the next decision will be taken after receiving the reports.

We were facing many problems in road construction in Bangalore. White topping takes a long time. Changing the traffic system, there will be more traffic. Once the white topping is done, if there is a problem, breaking it off again is a big worry.

That is why the rapid road technology has come. This technology prepares pre-cast slabs, lays internal joint, reinforces, and extends the road practically for 500 m. Out of which 375 meters long road has been constructed.

He said that the vehicles above 20 tons should be continuously driven and analyzed. He said that he has suggested a complete report on the effects caused by the movement of heavy vehicles.

He said that this project has been implemented in practice and if it is done at a low cost, it can be implemented anywhere in Bangalore with white topping, traffic congestion, and fast roads.
