The Outer Ring Road in Chattogram from Foujdarhat to Patenga will be opened to public in full swing next month.

A total of 98% construction work of the 15.2 kilometer-road with four lanes from Patenga to Sagarika on the existing coastal embankment protecting Chattogram port city under the project, increasing the existing height of embankment from 20-23 feet to 30-33 feet has already been completed this month.

M Zahirul Alam Dobhas, chairman of Chattogram Development Authority (CDA), said limited traffic has been introduced considering the suffering of the people, though the construction of City Outer Ring Road has not been completed yet.

"More than 98% construction work has been completed. It may take more time to complete the work on the connecting roads," he added.

Hasan Bin Shams, project director of city outer ring road said the pavement construction of the road has been completed and the main road has already been opened for traffic in limited scale.

He said, "Besides, 98% of the substructure works and 79% of the superstructure of the flyover under construction on the ring road adjacent to the Sagarika Cricket Stadium have been completed. Meanwhile, construction work of feeder road is going on."

Hasan Bin Shams said the overall construction work and beautification work of the road has been completed. The road is built about 32 feet above from sea level. A total of 12 bridges and sluice gates have been constructed on the project.

He said, "The construction work had been postponed for about three months due to the coronavirus. Otherwise, the road would have been built long ago. The carpeting works is almost over."

CDA has taken initiative to build an 'outer ring road cum embankment' to reduce traffic congestion in the port city and facilitate the movement of goods vehicles from the Chattogram port in 2011.

Donor agency JICA provided funding after a feasibility study on the road from Patenga beach to Faujdarhat. The main construction works of Outer Ring Road started in July 2016. Initially, the cost of the project was estimated at Tk865 crore, but after two amendments, it now stands at around Tk26,75.96 crore.
