The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has begun clearing bushes and shrubs along the National Highway near Jamshedpur. This action addresses a long-standing issue that has caused problems for drivers in the area.
Improved Visibility on the Highway
The uncontrolled growth of vegetation along the highway had significantly reduced visibility. This created potential dangers for people driving, especially where the road curves and it’s hard to see far ahead.
Overgrown shrubs made it difficult for drivers to see pedestrians, animals, or other cars approaching from the sides, particularly at night or in poor weather conditions. Because of this, there was an increased chance of accidents. The current cleanup work focuses on getting rid of the plants blocking views and growing onto the highway itself.
Manual Clearing of Vegetation
“We’re cleaning the bushes to make the road safer for vehicles,” stated a local worker on the project. Laborers are manually removing the vegetation along the highway. This effort is a positive change for people who travel this route regularly.
After the initial clearing, regular upkeep will be needed to prevent the plants from becoming a problem again. This might include trimming the vegetation regularly or using chemicals to stop plant growth.
