Shillong, May 1: Deputy Chief Minister in-charge PWD (Roads) Prestone Tynsong has reviewed the implementation of the Shillong-Dawki road project and Shillong Western Bypass.
Tynsong told reporters on Wednesday that he held a review meeting with the National Highways & Infrastructure Development Corporation Ltd (NHIDCL) and all the concerned departments for Shillong-Dawki road and for Shillong Western Bypass and the works are on right track.
As far as the Shillong Western Bypass is concerned, land has been partly handed over to the NHIDCL by both the deputy commissioners of Ri Bhoi and East Khasi Hills.
“Very soon, we will be able to handover the entire stretch of the road length to the NHIDCL as work orders have been issued to the contractors,” Tynsong said.
On the progress of work for the Shillong-Dawki road, the deputy work has just resumed again.
“Work has just started again. I guess you must have seen it, be it four lane or package I, II and IV. They have just started and of course I don’t have the percentage of work done. Maybe very soon I will get all the details from the NHIDCL,” he added.
