The construction of the flyover has eased the traffic movement from Hill Cart road to NJP bound vehicle... Previously it was a night mare
for any one travelling to NJP... This stretch could take hours in a bad situation...
.
Though this much demanded flyover whose construction was to start some 15-20 years back didn't happened... Their was many reason... It was planned that...
more... both the rail gate will be closed after the construction of the flyover but after the flyover was operational one of the gates was closed and another was
opened... But it was seen the one railway gate was not adequate to handle the entire traffic so another gate was reopened...
.
The Flyover was not planned... Many more approach path was to be made... They said due to financial limitation and land problem the
flyover could not be done as planned...
.
One more problem in Siliguri City is Cycle Rickshaw they cannot use the flow over... So No option they have to use the railway gate...
.
Siliguri City needs some fast transport mode...
.
That's a good point you have pointed out that boundary wall are to erected in this stretch... I hope this a viable option...
One hurdle will be construction of another Mahananda Bridge... Much needed... But for fund crunch NFR it is a tough job...
.
Two more flyover is need one at Rangapani and another at Tikiapara[Near to Siliguri Town Station towards NJP]...
