Downtown-Six Mile flyover to be inaugurated in July: CM

1 2 3 Guwahati: Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma has announced that the new flyover connecting the Downtown area to Six Mile area will be inaugurated in July. "We are happy to announce that the new flyover near Downtown Hospital Point will be inaugurated on July 6, 2025," Sarma said on 'X' on Thursday. According to officials from the Public Works Department (PWD), the approximately 650-metre-long flyover, construction of which began last year, is being developed at an estimated cost of Rs 85 crore. Munin Deka, executive engineer of PWD, Dispur Dimoria territorial road division, said, "The main structural work has been completed, and streetlights have also been installed. At present, the parking area under the flyover is being developed, and paint work is being carried out. Work is progressing swiftly to ensure that the project is ready for inauguration in July. Once completed, the flyover is expected to offer major relief from traffic congestion on the busy GS road. " Currently, there are five major flyovers on GS Road, including the Ulubari flyover, Bhangagarh flyover, and the Bishnu Rabha flyover in the Ganeshguri area, the Super Market flyover at the Supermarket junction, and the Six Mile flyover, which has an arm extending towards the Panjabari area. Once the upcoming flyover is completed, it will become the sixth flyover on the busy stretch. Deka added that the flyover would also feature a modern composite structural design, incorporating reinforced cement concrete (RCC) along with embedded steel girder-concrete beams, a technique that enhances both strength and durability.
