Mail News Service

Jamshedpur, Dec 6: Mukesh Mittal, vice president (Public Relations and Welfare), Singhbhum Chamber of Commerce and Industry, has written to the General Manager of South Eastern Railway, Archana Joshi, demanding construction of a foot-over-bridge (FOB) at Jugsalai Railway level crossing.

In the letter, Mittal said the FOB was needed for pedestrians commuting through the crossing day and night. The under-construction road-over-bridge (ROB) at the crossing is 1.2 metre long and would not be a convenient option for pedestrians, he said.

Mittal said the ROB would be opened for the public from 1st January 2023 onwards. He said the FOB should also be constructed without delay in the larger public interest.
