The Chandigarh administration has approved a significant infrastructure project involving the construction of a high-level bridge over Sukhna Choe, aimed at improving connectivity between Manimajra and Sector-26. This ₹16.63 crore (approximately $2 million USD) project was approved during a meeting chaired by H Rajesh Prasad, the Chief Secretary of Chandigarh. The existing causeway often faces severe congestion and becomes non-operational during monsoon seasons due to flooding, causing traffic disruptions. The new bridge will feature dual four-lane carriageways, dedicated footpaths, and cycle tracks, all designed with Advanced Reinforced Cement Concrete (RCC) technology to ensure durability and flood resilience. The project is set to commence in July, with an estimated completion time of 12 months, significantly enhancing commuter safety and traffic flow in the region.
