Taking serious note over the slow progress in the construction of Dakoha Vehicle Underpass (VUP), which is causing traffic snarls on the busy Jalandhar-Panipat national highway, Deputy Commissioner (DC) Vishesh Sarangal on Tuesday gave a deadline of 15 days to build service lanes across the VUP to ensure smooth flow of traffic.
Chairing a meeting with NHAI officials at the district administrative complex, the DC said it was disheartening to see long traffic jams at the particular junction due to the carelessness of the agency carrying out the work.
