Belgharia railway overbridge closed for repairs

Belgharia railway overbridge closed for repairs

The Belgharia railway overbridge, which connects important areas in the northern part of the city, will be closed for a few months starting from Saturday.

This is because the bridge needs repairs to make it stronger and safer.

Engineers from the railways and the Public Works Department (PWD) will work together to replace at least a dozen girders.

The closure will cause some traffic problems, so the police have made a plan to divert vehicles using different roads.

People are asked to be patient during this time because the repairs are very important.

The bridge is used by many vehicles every day, so keeping it in good condition is crucial.
