Vadodara Municipal Corp to construct three flyovers

The Vadodara Municipal Corporation (VMC) is looking to construct three flyovers in the city for which detailed project reports (DPR) are ready. The standing committee of the civic body had recently cleared the DPR for the flyover on the Sama crossroads. The DPR of the flyover estimated to come up for Rs 46.4 crore, will be sent to the government that bears a part of the cost of the flyovers.

The meeting of the standing committee later this week will take up DPRs of two more flyovers for discussion. These include the Sardar Estate flyover and the Vrundavan flyover – both in the eastern parts of the city.

DPR for the flyover near Sardar Estate estimates cost of Rs 59.62 crore and will be 625m long and 16.5m wide. The state government has given and in principle nod for giving grants for the flyover pegging the cost at Rs 42 crore. If the government does not agree to the escalation in the project cost, the VMC will have to bear the additional cost of Rs 17.62 crore.

The cost of the flyover at Vrundavan crossroads is pegged at Rs 58.28 crore by a consultant roped in by the VMC. It will be 605m long and 16.5m wide. The state government has agreed to grant funds estimating Rs 49 crore. VMC will have to shell out the additional Rs 9.28 crore, in case the government does not agree to the higher costing.
