6 Work Scope Items
6 Technical Standards
5 Equipment Types

Overview

Construction of rural access roads, link roads, and drainage systems connecting villages to main roads and ensuring stormwater management for rural and peri-urban communities.

Why This Matters

  • 01

    Rural road connectivity reduces post-harvest losses by enabling timely transport to mandis - every km of road is an economic multiplier.

  • 02

    Proper drainage alongside roads prevents failure from waterlogging - unlined shoulders and absent drains cause rapid deterioration.

  • 03

    PMGSY and CM Gram Sadak Yojana actively fund rural road construction for all-weather access to unconnected habitations.

  • 04

    Stormwater drainage in rural settlements prevents waterborne disease and infrastructure damage during monsoon.

  • 05

    Culvert and causeway construction on seasonal streams opens year-round connectivity in flood-prone rural zones.

  • Gravel / WBM / CC roads
  • Bituminous (BT) road works (surface dressing)
