More than 70 percent of the work for the ₹37.62 crore road overbridge (ROB), which will replace the existing manned railway level crossing (LC 128) on Krishnagiri - Ranipet Main Road was completed.

Officials of the State Highways Department, which executes the multi-crore work, said that work to construct pillars on the Krishnagiri – Ranipet main road commenced.

“The new bridge will provide safe access to motorists to reach nearby towns and arterial stretches. The bridge will be ready by the end of December this year,” D. Mohanraj, Assistant Engineer (AE), State Highways (Vellore), told The Hindu.
