developing a new Industrial park called “CYCLE VALLEY” at village Dhanansu near
Ludhiana – Ferozepur Road) PSIEC has selected a new route to construct a new four lane
road. This road will take off from village Ramgarh (Lat 30. 868931Deg., Long. 75.978435
Deg.). The job of implementation of this road project has been entrusted by PSIEC to
Punjab PWD B&R. The alignment of the proposed road has already been finalized by
PSIEC. E.E. const. div. PWD Ludhiana has got carried out detailed investigation along the
proposed alignment. The total length of road is 8.275 Km. The First 4.15 Kilometer
length of this proposed route is along the existing irrigation channel, after 4.15
Kilometer it takes a right turn on R.H.S towards Dhanasu. The next 2.950 Kilometer
length is along the existing link road from village Sahibana to start of Village Dhanansu.
The last 1.175 Kilometer section is a bye pass of village Dhanansu (Refer Key plan
carriageway width of 2x7.5 m with a median of 1.5 m and earthen shoulder 1.5 m on
both sides. The avg. height of finished road from the adjacent field level is 1.50 m (crust
590 mm + Sub grade 500 mm + clearance from ground up to bottom of sub grade 410
mm). The proposed side slope is 2:1 (H:V). To implement this cross section minimum
width required at toe is 25.50 m. In first 4.150 Km a strip of 5.18 m width has been
reserved for irrigation channel, so the minimum land width required for road
construction in this section will be 22.5 m and the total land width required is 27.68 m
(22.5+5.18). As intimated the total land width available, from Km 0 to Km 4.15, is 23.470
m (Land of drainage deptt.), from Km 4.15 to Km 7.15 is 6.80 m (PWD) and from Km
7.15 to Km 8.275 is village common land. It is proposed to acquire land to have 27.6 m
wide ROW in this 4.150 km section and 30 m wide ROW in balance length.
The proposed alignment interfere with the existing Grain Market, Health care centre of
village Dhanansu and it touches the existing cremation ground at one location. There is a
deep gorge in section Km 6.470 to Km 6.570 on RHS (sand mining done by the owner of
Flexible pavement for the road has been designed as per IRC 37-2012 for a projected
traffic of 50 MSA and the total thickness of crust required for against 8% CBR is 590 mm.
the soil of the existing ground is sandy and good earth is available in the nearby area.
500 mm thick sub grade has been proposed in the complete length.
The existing link road from Km 4.15 to Km 7.15, having carriageway width of 3.5 to 5.5
m will be dismantle and reconstructed. Unilateral cross slope to both the carriageway in
section 0 to 4.15 Km has been proposed to avoid the entry of rain water from
carriageway to the irrigation drain on RHS, in rest of the section the cross slope
provided to each carriageway is unilateral i.e. each carriageway slopes towards the
shoulder.
The proposed alignment crosses Budda Nallah at RD 7.90 Km. A high level bridge with 2
span of 7.5 m each has been proposed at this location. Retaining wall average 2 m high in
a length of 200 m on both sides will have to be constructed to retain earth in
approaches. The existing 3 no. (2 slab and 1 H.P) culverts have been replaced with new
culverts. Total 11 no. culverts (3 Box type and 8 no. HP culverts with 1200 mm dia pipe)
have been proposed. These culverts will provide crossing to irrigation channel at two
locations and will work as balancing culverts. in addition 600 mm dia Hume pipes of
farmers on both sides of the road. No side drains has been propose in this project. There
is one major T junction with NH-05 at the start of the project. NH- 05 is being upgraded
by NHAI on Hybrid – Annuity mode. Proper access by way of providing a fly over of 3
construction of this fly over a properly designed junction is required at this location. The
matter needs to be co ordinated by Punjab Govt. with NHAI. For the safety of commuter
metal crash barrier along the proposed irrigation channel has been considered.
In addition to the other road furniture two number cantilever type gantraries have been
proposed at start the project. The silent features of the proposal are as follow.
