A rail under-bridge (RUB) for smooth vehicular movement on Jassian Road seems to be a distant dream for residents. The Municipal Corporation (MC) had earlier sent a proposal to the railway authorities for the construction of an RUB at the location but the project failed to see the light of the day.
When the MC wrote a letter to the Railways in January 2021 in this regard, an official had stated that the passage under the Ludhiana-Amritsar railway section at Jassian village was not broad enough to cater to the high volume of traffic. The portion within the jurisdiction of the Railways was also not motorable, he had said. Thus, there was a need for a subway for the convenience of the people.
