Chandigarh: The work of building an underpass between Chandigarh’s PGI Hospital and Punjab University will start soon. The administration has placed an online bid to hire a consultant for this. This consultant will prepare a report on the new drawing of this underpass, the estimated cost, and other issues and give it to the administration. About 5 months ago, the feasibility report for this underpass was passed. Since 2019 this project has been put on hold by the Heritage Committee.
The Chandigarh Administration had prepared a proposal for this underpass and sent it to the then Administrator of Chandigarh, VP Singh Badnore. He approved this proposal on November 4, 2019. After this, a lot of time was spent deciding the place, and then it took about a year to decide the design. After this, this underpass got stuck with the Heritage Committee. The Heritage Committee did not approve it. After getting the approval of the Heritage Committee, a feasibility report was prepared.
This underpass will be built between the bus stop near Punjab University and the PU gate, which will be connected to PGI. At present, thousands of patients going to PGI and PU have to cross the road daily amidst the movement of vehicles. During this, they have to face a lot of trouble.
