He said that the construction work of five ROBs is going on in Madhepura district. After the completion of the construction work of ROB, traffic will become very smooth. After all this work is done, this area will also develop in terms of roads.
maintenance was not being done properly
MP Dinesh Chandra Yadav said that about one and a half kilometer of road on NH-107 in Mathahi is in bad condition. Earlier this road was handed over to NHAI. ROB and bypass are being constructed. The old road in Mathahi was not being maintained properly. He said that after talking to NHAI, about two and a half crore rupees have been provided to the road construction department. Road construction is getting delayed due to delay in the tender process. After talking to the Chief Engineer, instructions have been given to start its construction by doing its tender soon.
