Traffic on Madikeri-Mangaluru Road banned; PWD issues notice to construction companyRs. 7. 5 crore project turning out to be a costly affair; No threat to Office as of now, says DC
Madikeri: Traffic movement on the Madikeri-Mangaluru Highway has been banned as the retaining wall of the Kodagu Deputy Commissioner’s (DC) Office — located at a steep gradient on the road — faces the threat of collapse. The Police have taken this precautionary step late last night considering the safety of the motorists.
The Public Works Department (PWD) has issued a notice to the construction company and the company that planned and provided technical knowledge for the retaining wall. The notice mentions that the entire risk of the project will be on the construction company and not on the District Administration. The retaining wall project was taken up at a cost of Rs. 7. 5 crore.
On July 8, Star of Mysore had published a report under the title ‘Kodagu DC Office retaining wall gives way as water seeps in’ warning about the imminent danger. But ironically, the PWD officials had then denied that the wall was under the threat of collapse as advanced technology had been used to construct the wall.
But now, the same PWD officers have issued notice to the construction company asking it to take corrective measures. Seeing the wall loosening up, the Madikeri Town Police have banned vehicle movement on the road that is usually busy as it links Mysuru and Mangaluru.
Barricades have been laid at the entrance of the road at General Thimayya Circle. Vehicles coming to Madikeri from Mangaluru and vehicles heading towards Mangaluru have been directed to proceed via the Mekeri-Thalathmane-Appangala route.
The Police, PWD officials and engineers are camping at the place and this morning, plastic sheets were being fixed to the crevices of the retaining wall to prevent water seepage. The Reinforced Earth Wall (RE Wall) was being pushed inside using machines as part of ‘re-nailing worh&H ] H [ K[Y [HZY^ H ]Z[[ [ HZY و݈Y] ؙ H Y ][ KٙXX[ ZY YHYYXZ[ و^ܙKYH ] H[Z[ۙ ˈ]YYY ]و H X] HٙXH[ HٙXH [H YY 8'H[H HYZ[ ]]HXY[H XX[^ H[[Y]ٝYH H Y] Hو H [[X[H [[܈ٙXٜ[Z[]H ]Y H XKH]ۜ[ X [[[Y [[[Y[^ [ ZHܜX]HYXݙ8H ZY
