BELAGAVI
The stalemate over the permission for the movement of multi-axle vehicles in the Anmod-Ramnagar section of the Belagavi-Goa NH748 (NH4A) may finally get over.
NHAI officials along with Karwar district officials carried out the inspection of the stretch on Wednesday evening to identify the obstacles in the movement of multi-axle vehicles.
It may be recalled that the movement of multi-axle vehicles was banned by the Karwar collector before the Covid-19 wave in wake of the dilapidated under-construction national highway. The order has not been withdrawn putting the owners and transporters of multi-axle vehicles at huge inconvenience as they had to travel via Karwar.
“We have identified a few half-completed bridges and spots where the traffic of heavy vehicles is going to be affected. The necessary repairs would be carried out within a week, after which the multi-axle vehicles could be allowed to move via Anmod-Ramnagar,” a NHAI official said.
Agitating transporters too have expressed satisfaction over the development hoping that their woes would end soon after necessary action by the NHAI.
