Dima Hasao road near Songpijang school closed for 45 days from 8 October
The road near Songpijang Vanjung LP School in Dima Hasao district has been closed to all vehicular traffic for 45 days from 8 October, the PWD (R&B) Haflong Division announced. The closure is needed to safely construct an RCC box culvert, said the Executive Engineer of the division.
Commuters are advised to use alternative routes: the Songpijang village approach road, Moulhoi-Agriculture Workshop-Boildura, Moulhoi-Forest and PHE Campus-Sarkari Bagan, or Moulhoi-Lower Haflong routes. The PWD stated that the temporary closure is required for safe and timely execution of the culvert work.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The 45-day closure of a road near an LP school in Dima Hasao for RCC box culvert work directly affects daily commuters, especially schoolchildren from nearby Songpijang, who now face longer travel times on one of several detours the PWD has listed. The notice names the PWD (R&B) Haflong Division as the construction authority, but does not state whether the school itself or local transportation for students will get any alternative arrangement during the closure. Commuters and vehicle owners are left to rely on dirt approaches and through rural routes such as Moulhoi-Lower Haflong, whose condition is unspecified. The PWD's closure period runs from 8 October, so the road is already shut as of this report.
