A foot overbridge, which was thrown open in Lalru on Saturday, is set to facilitate around 2,000 students.
Mohali Deputy Commissioner (DC) Aashika Jain said the installation process was completed Friday to facilitate the movement of over 2,000 students at the government school in Lalru and residents of over 15 villages in its vicinity.
The issue was being constantly monitored in the Road Safety Committee headed by the DC as it had been identified as a major black spot in the district.
Project Director, National Highway Authority of India (NHAI), Pradeep Atri, said that the bridge has been constructed at a cost of Rs 83 lakh.
