BBMP wants land to build ROBs and RUBs

Will end the practice of people and vehicles crossing tracks at 28 locations

BBMP and the railways will finally begin work on a number of railway under bridges (RUB) and railway over bridges (ROB).As it is the duty of BBMP to hand over the land to railways to take up the work,the civic body will offer transfer of development rights (TDR) to those people whose property will be acquired.
Said town planning and development standing committee chairman C K Ramaurthy,We wont put pressure on land-owners.We will be giving an option of TDR.If no one is interested,we have to compensate them and acquire the land.

An official said,We will be issuing a gazette notification for acquiring land.If no one comes forward to take the TDR option,according to section 23 of the Land Acquisition Act,1894,they will be compensated according to the governments approved guidance value.

Ramamurthy said,As construction of ROBs and RUBs have to be time bound,we have decided that the commissioner will decide the priority of the projects and take up the compensation matter.A special amount will be earmarked in the budget for the compensation.This project is necessary as the number of vehicles in the city has gone up in recent years.At railway level crossings,there is a huge traffic jam.Hence,we have decided to execute the project in 28 such locations.We will acquire the land and hand it over to the railways who will execute the project.
