Slope protection work on 39-km Parwanoo-Solan road begins soon

Jammu-based SRM Contractors Limited will soon begin slope protection work on the Parwanoo-Solan section of the National Highway (NH)-5. As many as 26 critical locations have been identified on the 39-km stretch where various slope protection works would be undertaken. The Rs 1.45-crore project is slated to be completed in 18 months once it begins.

Five companies had come forward to bid for this project, but SRM Contractors was finalised by the NHAI owing to their expertise.
