Nearly six years after its construction was initiated, the much-awaited 5.14-km Shamti Bypass in Solan city is nearing completion.
Barely 2 per cent work like tarring of the road still to be done, officials expect it to complete in the next few week. The completion of the bypass was keenly awaited as it would help decongest Solan city by providing an alternative road to the motorists, who would not have to pass through the congested Mall Road.
