In a proactive move to accelerate critical infrastructure development, Nagpur Municipal Commissioner Dr. Abhijeet Chaudhari conducted a surprise on-site inspection of the newly built bridge leading to the Ambazari cremation ground and the adjacent Nag River protection wall on Tuesday.
Expressing satisfaction with the bridge’s progress and structural quality, Dr. Chaudhari directed officials to expedite the remaining work, emphasizing its importance for public safety and convenience.
The old, deteriorated bridge had been dismantled and replaced with a state-of-the-art, 27-meter-long single-span bridge constructed using advanced Power Arch Technology. Its design avoids support pillars in the riverbed, preserving the natural water flow and preventing obstructions. Built with durable high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipes, the bridge design has been approved by the Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology (VNIT), adding engineering credibility to the project.
Dr. Chaudhari also inspected the ongoing construction of a reinforced protection wall along the Nag River, designed to prevent erosion and protect nearby infrastructure. He noted that the wall construction is in its final stages and instructed the team to ensure its timely completion.
The Commissioner reviewed river-cleaning operations and appreciated the efforts taken to maintain ecological balance and hygiene in the area.
Accompanying him during the inspection were Chief Engineer Manoj Talewar, Executive Engineer Manoj Gadre, Deputy Engineer Pramod Mokhade, Junior Engineer Kishor Mathurkar, and officials from executing agency Prafullved Infra, including Prafull Deshmukh and Chetan Pawar.
