Bihar Road Dept initiates safety audit for all rail overbridges

In a proactive move towards enhancing road safety, the Bihar Road Construction Department has issued directives for an extensive safety inspection and audit of all Rail Overbridges (ROBs) across the state. The initiative aims to identify and address potential safety concerns, ensuring the robustness of crucial transportation infrastructure.

The decision to conduct a comprehensive safety audit underscores the department's commitment to prioritising public safety and infrastructure resilience. Rail Overbridges play a vital role in ensuring smooth vehicular and pedestrian movement over railway tracks, making their structural integrity and safety features paramount.

Officials have been instructed to meticulously assess each Rail Overbridge, focusing on structural stability, signage adequacy, and adherence to safety standards. This proactive measure aligns with the department's vision to create a secure and reliable road network for the citizens of Bihar.

By initiating these safety audits, the Bihar Road Construction Department not only demonstrates its dedication to ensuring the well-being of the public but also sets a precedent for other regions to prioritise infrastructure safety. The comprehensive inspection process is expected to result in targeted improvements, making Bihar's road network even more robust and secure for the benefit of all users.
