B C Road bus stand to be shifted
Mangalore, Nov 1, DH News Service:
The district administration, in association with the revenue, police and Bantwal Town Municipal Council authorities, has decided to shift the bus stand at B C Road to a new location at Pelthimar near bypass junction in Muda village.
According to a press release, revenue officials have already identified 90 cents of revenue land in survey numbers 58-A1, 93-4B, 93-5, 93-12 for the purpose and decided to shift the bus stand.
To avoid problems
The release from the Deputy Commissioner said that the present bus station on NH-48, poses various kinds of problems for all.
It was felt that shifting the bus station to Pelthimar near the bypass junction in Muda village will be practical and also reduce the density of the vehicles on the road adjacent to the existing bus stand. The proposed land needs to be levelled on one side and filled up on the other to facilitate the construction of the new bus stand.
Chief Officer of Bantwal Town Municipal Council, after examining the reports of all the concerned and proceedings of the meeting conducted by the Bantwal Tahsildar, too has agreed that it would be necessary to shift the bus stand to Pelthimar.
The Deputy Commissioner has invited objections to the proposal of shifting the bus stand. The objections should reach within 30 days of issuing the notification dated October 27.
