Madhya Pradesh Probes Bridge Safety Amid Design Flaw Concerns

Following growing public outcry over the condition of roads and bridges in Madhya Pradesh, the Public Works Department (PWD) has launched an official investigation. This comes amidst allegations of faulty bridge designs, including Railway over Bridges (RoBs), and the prevalence of hazardous potholes across the state’s road network.

Focus on Bridge Design and Road Maintenance

The investigation will focus on scrutinizing the design and construction of several bridges across the state, particularly RoBs, to determine if any design flaws compromise their structural integrity and safety. The PWD is also addressing the widespread concern regarding the poor condition of roads and the abundance of potholes, which pose significant risks to commuters.

Commitment to Public Safety and Infrastructure Improvement

This proactive step by the Madhya Pradesh government demonstrates a commitment to ensuring public safety and improving the quality of road infrastructure. The investigation’s findings will be crucial in identifying areas needing immediate attention and preventing future issues. The PWD aims to implement corrective measures based on the investigation results, ensuring safer and more reliable transportation for all residents.
