1. INTRODUCTION:
In the last decade Odisha has experienced a facelift in its roadway networks.
Improvements in roads will surely strengthen the socio-economic status of the state. The
roadway network caters to benefits of general people, trade organisations, industries and
all commercial sectors. This report stands to present the importance of Old Cuttack
Sambalpur road (ODR), its alternatives, and advantages of improvement and widening of
this stretch.
1.1. General:
The old Cuttack Sambalpur road (ODR) from 11/100 km to 32/430 km for a length of 21.33
km covers the jurisdiction from Nuapatna on newly constructed Madhusudan Setu
toChandbali Junction in Athagarh town. The project road (MDR) takes off from Nuapatna
at Chainage 11/100 KM (From approach of Madhusudan Setu) and terminal at Chandabali
Junction, Athagarh Town at 32/430 km. The road passes through mostly plain terrain, at
presently mostly intermediate road (5.5mtrs) and some portion is double lane (7.0 mtrs)

2. PROJECT BACKGROUND
2.1 State Profile:
Odisha lies between latitudes 17.780N and 22.730N, and between longitudes 81.37E and
87.53E. The state has an area of 155,707 km2, which is 4.87% of total area of India, and a
coastline of 450 km. In the eastern part of the state lies the coastal plain. It extends from
the Subarnarekha River in the north to the Rushikulya River in the south.
Three-quarters of the state is covered in mountain ranges. Deep and broad valleys have
been made in them by rivers. These valleys have fertile soil and are densely populated.
Odisha also has plateaus and rolling uplands, which have lower elevation than the
plateaus. The highest point inthe state is Deomali at 1,672 metres. The other high peaks
are: Sinkaram (1,620 m), Golikoda (1,617 m), and Yendrika (1,582 metres). The state
experiences four meteorologicalseasons: winter (January to February), pre-monsoon
season (March to May), south-west monsoonseason (June to September) and north east
monsoon season (October–December). However, locally the year is divided into six
traditional seasons (or rutus): Grishma (summer), Barsha (rainy season), Sharata
(autumn), Hemanta (pre-winter),Sheeta(winter season) and Basanta (spring).

3. PROJECT APPRECIATION
It has been proposed to strengthen the link between city of Cuttack and sub-divisional
town of Athagarh. Three of the possible alignments have been studied based on distance,
benefits and feasibility of each of them. Each of them is detailed out and best of all has
been regarded for future scope of strengthening and widening activities.
In an observation, Cuttack has got a number of exit points which have been listed.
The possible links with Athagarh can be strengthened with exit points at.
Meanwhile, Athagarh is linked to all its neighbouring towns through Chandbali Chowk.
Combining all possible routes, three of them have been sorted out and approached in
detail.
Possible alignments:
Alignment A: Cuttack High court → Netaji Subhash Bose Setu → Mundali → Athagarh
A set of three alignments options has been prepared originating from Trisulia (Netaji
Subhash Bose Setu) near High court, Nuapatna (Madhusudan Setu)& Jobra Anicut and
terminating at Chandbali Chowk in Athagarh Town.

3.1.1. Alignment A:
Alignment A has been prepared based on map data and visual inspection presenting the
details here with.
Athagarh
Cuttack
Alignment A
(34.8 Kms)
Fig 3.1: Alignment A (Cuttack High court → Netaji Subhash Bose Setu → Mundali → Athagarh)
Intermediate Points:
Using the Netaji Subhash Bose Setu to cross river Kathajodi, Banki road is caught upon
from Trishulia. Moving towards Mundali from Chakradharapur Junction, river Mahanadi is
crossed at Mundali Barrage to reach Athagarh.
Terrain/Soil Classification:
The alignment lies in a mixed terrain. The path is plain, open and rolling in terrain between
Trisulia and Mundali which changes to forest lands associated with Hilly gradients in
between stretches from Mundali towards [Link] red soils are found in the hilly
areas and older alluvial soils in minor pockets.
Existing Alignment:
The Existing road is a two lane carriageway. There is one major bridge over river Mahanadi
and few cross drainage structure on the stretch. Four major junctions namely Trisulia,
Govindpur, Mundali and Dasapur exist on the route. It is encountered by sharp horizontal
and vertical curves along with vertical gradient.
11
3.1.2. Alignment B:
Cuttack → Nuapatna→ Nidhipur→ Athagarh
Athagarh
Cuttack
Alignment B
(21.3 Kms)
Intermediate Point:
The route passes by the bank of river Mahanadi, the Shrine of Dhabaleswar at
Mancheswar Junction, it crosses a railway level crossing at Nidhipur to join Athagarh.
Terrain/Soil Classification:
Receiving a high embankment Zone as at the beginning, the road is accompanied by plain
and rolling terrain throughout the path. Surrounding forests appear in patches, but most
of the land around is occupied for agriculture. Soil type is mostly old alluvial.
Population:
Except for the terminals which are densely built up with human habitats and market areas
the intermediate location are covered with alternate rural housings and agricultural lands.
Movement of Cattle is regular in different parts of the road.
Existing Carriageway:
The road is a mix up of 2 lane carriageway and 5.5 m intermediate lane. In certain built up
areas, the carriageway is completely squeezed up by housing structures.
12
3.1.3. Alignment C:
Cuttack → Jobra Anicut →Choudwar → Khuntuni → Athagarh
Alignment C
(40.2 Kms)
Athagarh
Cuttack
Intermediate Points:
It touches upon the industrial estate of Jagatpur, crosses river Birupa, intersects NH 55 at
Choudwar. Moving along Cuttack – Sambalpur Highway, the path diverts at Khuntuni
towards Athagarh via SH 65.
Population:
The Stretch is already used to commute goods and passengers. Mostly surrounded by built
ups, this path is already under widening.
Existing Carriageway:
The existing carriageway of NH 55 is being widened to 4 lanes. State highway 65 is a newly
constructed 2 lane highway with paved shoulder.
Studying all three alignments, alignment B is found to be shortest path with a mere
distance of 21.3 km. Development in this stretch will benefit vast majority of population
residing along it.
13
3.2 Benefits of Alignment B
The second alignment poses to be the shorter of rest two paths. Its development will
benefit most of the existing rural population. Other than these the citizens of Cuttack and
Athagarh can commute hassle free. Each of these has been described in later sections of
the chapter.
(b) The ending terminal Chandbali Chowk is located in the heart of Athagarh town is also a
major junction with five approaches. They are Nuapatna to East (the project
proposal).Khuntuni to north, Baramba to west and two approaches BBSR and Banki
road to South. This shows strengthening the link between the two points will create
greater number of links to different places.
14
3.2.2. Enlisting the Benefits
a. General Administration: Athagarh being a constituency of Cuttack district and
Cuttack city a district headquarters, conveyance will speed up administrative activities,
governance and Judiciary benefits, strengthening out in the region.
b. Education: The city of Cuttack takes the privilege of having old, established and
important educational organisations like Ravenshaw, Stewart, National Law University,
Bose and many more. In Athagarh Gopabandhu Science College, Govt. Women's
College have been providing higher secondary graduate post studies. This road will
prove to increase conveyance to students who opt commute every day to attend their
regular classes.

15
c. Health Care: SCB Medical College has been the reputed health care facility existing
in State. Aligarh Govt. Hospital at Athagarh, and GIMSAR hospital can be easily
reachable thereby imparting proper and timely availability of healthcare facility.
d. Tourism: This road is the only link to magnificent 14th century Hindu shrine of Lord
Shiva at Dhabaleswar. Situated on an island in the river Mahanadi, the 69 ft. tall
structure can be approached by 259m long suspension bridge. It is the longest of its
Kind in India. During the Kanwar Yatra, the temple witnesses large gathering of
devotees offering holi water to the Shiva Linga. It has potential to draw more tourism
from across the country and world as well as become the weekend hotspot for local
hangout resulting blooming tourism India.
16
e. Industry: Heavy industries like Aarti steels Ltd, TS Alloys LTD, JK Laxmi cement LTD,
Shree cement LTD, Bhubaneswar Power plant LTDhave been set up to the stretch. With
improvement the roads the existing industries may plan with expansion options.
Opportunities for new ventures to set up will create more employment opportunities
and increase the mobility of labor. in the region will open out job prospects. With their
development a host of facilities such as banks, post offices, insurance companies,
housing, schools, health care facilities come up. This results in the development of
backward areas and balanced regional development.
f. Railways: Ghantikhal Nidhipur railway station situated few hundred metres away from
this road is a minor halt-for few trains. This station is halt to two daily trains two
running Six Days a week and four weekly trains. This station lies in the Khurda Road-
Naraj-Sambalpur Station. Approach to the station along the road from Athagarh will
enhance means of commute for the people.
Fig 3.11: Ghantikhal Nidhipur Railway Station in Khurda Road – Naraj – Sambalpur BG Line.
17
g. Freight Transport: History of this route served to facilitate transportation from
Cuttack to Sambalpur and vice versa. Revamping this stretch will revive transportation
of goods from Cuttack to Industrial Corridor of Talcher, Angul, Sambalpur, Jharsuguda
leading to development of new freight corridor along this route. Jagatpur being an
existing industrial estate may visualise expansion in this direction.
18
4. PRESENT STATUS
The road is the major lifeline of Athagarh, Narsinghpur for connecting nearby cities like
Cuttack and Bhubaneswar. The traffic on this road has increased due to opening of newly
constructed HL Bridge Madhusudan Setu over river Mahanadi at Nuapatna. Also the four
laning of the nearby national highway (NH55) is in progress. The connecting road from
Madhusudan Setu Bridge to NH55 which is known as approach road to Nuapatna Bridge is in
progress and will be completed very soon. After completion of these road improvement
works, the traffic will also be increased on the old Cuttack-Sambalpur road.
The present road geometric is comparatively fair and minor correction may require to
correction to the horizontal alignment to improve the design speed and reduce road
accidents. The vertical alignment is fair except from Chainage KM 24/900 to 26/100 and at
KM 29/850 as the above stretch is submerged during rainy season.

5. DETAILED SURVEY METHODOLOGY
5.1. General
For successful and efficient rendering of services, it is proposed to take a sound
engineering approach based on a clear understanding of the Terms of Reference
and the relevant planning and systems approach.
The secondary data requirements are broadly classified under the following major groups:
General Data
Socio-economic profile (State and project Influence Area)
Relevant Study Reports
Development Schemes in the Project Influence Area
Relevant Documents on design, construction and maintenance of roads and bridges
Transport Characteristics and Vehicle Operating Costs
Traffic volume along project road, seasonal variations and growth trends
Accident records
Traffic loading characteristics
Geological and soil maps; and
Construction and maintenance history of existing project road.

station) to unknown station (a rover station). Base station is to be established in beginning
of the project, which shall track signals continuously without break from the satellite till,
Rover Stations DGNSS work completes. Thus, reference station tracks continuously on a
known point and rover receiver spends a short period on each point
Simultaneously, Rover stations will also track signals from the satellite for a minimum period
of 50 minutes. The observation time is proportional to the length of baseline. DGNSS
network will be in the form of well-formed network of triangulation and it was closed.
During DGNSS survey the following points had been recorded in the field book for better
accuracy of the survey.
In DGPS technology, signals from satellites must reach the antenna of the GPS receiver
without any obstructions. The GPS receiver’s antenna setup on tripod will be about 1.50 m
above ground level. The space 1.50m above the horizontal plane at antenna level, the mask
angle, must be free from any obstructions for the signals to from satellites to reach the
antenna. The following features close to the location for Bench Marks (BM) would obstruct
the signals from the satellite reaching the GPS receivers, so considering the error source the
DGPS Observations done with free from the following Locations.
All field procedures will be followed and report collected as specified on DGPS Log Book
format. After the field observation of satellites with GPS receivers over the control stations
completed, the co-ordinates of the stations will be computed using the appropriate
software. Co-ordinates for Control Stations/BM were computed with reference to the co-
ordinates of the Datum WGS-84 and in UTM Projection System.
The basis and reference for levelling to the Control Stations / BM shall be the Mean Sea
Level (MSL) established by the SOI, in the form of Bench Marks (BM). The technique to be
adopted for establishing vertical control to the DGPS Control Station by auto level
conforming to the DT levelling procedure will be followed for the entire project Road length.
The accuracy required for heights of Control Stations shall be ± 0.012 m /k where, k is the
length of the level line in km.
29
5.3. Approach to Topographic survey
5.3.2. Topography
[Link]. Embankments (code: EB** for bottom and ER** for top)
Embankment will be located opposite the chalk marks and any change of direction or
grade where they run parallel to the road.
When embankments are not parallel to the road, readings at every 25 m or change
of direction or grade will be recorded.
While following an embankment that changes direction often keep the Top and
Bottom readings next to each other to avoid the lines overlapping.
30
[Link]. Outline of Rock (Code: RO**)
Readings will be taken at edge of Rocks to show outline and on reading the top of
the Rock.
5.3.3. Structures
[Link]. Edge of Buildings (Code: BC**)
Locate corners of buildings closest to the road.
Pole will be placed on the natural ground not on the buildings.
31
[Link]. Compound Wall (Code: BW**)
Locate roadside edge of compound wall at groundlevel.
32
[Link]. Cross-Sections
Cross-sections to be taken at 1 m interval in full extent of survey covering sufficient
number of spot levels on-existing carriageway and adjacent ground profile correction
course and earth work calculations. Cross sections shall be taken at closer interval at
curve.
Additional surveys for the improvement of junctions will be carried out. In case of major
crossings where a grade separated structure or rotary is expected, survey will be extended
at least 500m in a width of 45m on cross roads and will cover the complete area of the
proposed improvement. On other junctions, survey on cross road will extend up to 100m in
a width of 30m.
Extra width will be surveyed on the inside of curves and where existing alignment is poor, in
consultation with Design Engineer
For bridge length more than 60 m at 100 m interval and up to 500m upstream and
downstream.
I. For bridge length between 30 m to 60 m and for defined channel at 100m interval
and up to 200 m upstream and downstream.
II. For minor waterway three cross-sections one at bridge centre line, 100m upstream
and downstream.
33
Survey of the stream / river will extend up to natural grounds level or F.S.L. of the
bridge wherever within 200 m from road bridge site upstream and downstream from
the bridge. All physical features such as high or low points, trees, existing temporary
or permanent installations on bed, and banks on either side of approach road shall
be recorded.
Natural surface readings should be recorded about 30 m -50 m beyond the top of
river banks or HFL, whichever is higher.
If possible, from local enquiry or from High Flood marks on adjacent structures, take
one reading for HFL and identify L WL with dates.
Note down the direction of flow and structure number of the bridge on Field book.
[Link]. Culverts
Culvert is a cross drainage structure whose total length is less than 6 m.
Readings will be taken at invert level of any pipes crossing the road or affecting
proposed drainage.
Readings at each end of pipe will be string.
Only two points required on culvert strings.
Points will be located at ground level.
One reading at centre of culvert will be taken.
In case of silted culverts, take silted level as this would be the new invert level.
Where there is a marked drain at inlet and outlet of culvert, it is necessary to show
shape of drain in plan.
Edge of shoulder (ES strings) will be joined to the culvert strings.
Note down culvert number, number of vents, vent size and flow direction on the
Field Book in bridge inventory format.
As marked three points are taken along the road centre line, one each at start,
centre and end of culvert.
The string number CE** and CC** can continue to be same but at end of culvert,
string number for ES** and ET** are increased.
34
Before reading to the Temporary station check angle to the reference object.
This angle must be correct before placing any new stations.
A final check reading should be taken to back sight station after reading to
Temporary station.
Using Temporary station.
i. If only a few additional readings are being taken from the Temporary station
the previous booking sheet can be used, otherwise use a new sheet.
ii. Take readings to additional detail.
However, the survey must close onto a Known Station on Main Traverse.
Based on the survey, strip plan and profile of the road alignment will be prepared. A digital
terrain model will be generated after connecting all the coordinates of the surveyed points
with UTM projections and levels with Survey of India’s (SOI) Bench mark. ROW details will
be used in preparation of land acquisition and utility shifting plans.
5.4.1. Review of Development Plan: The improvement of the existing project road
would greatly improve the transportation system and provide better connectivity in the
area. The development plans, future and on-going, for the state in general and for the
project influence area in particular, would be collected and studied so as to make an
assessment of the impact of implementation of the project on demand for transportation
and on the growth of economy.
5.4.2. Social Impact Assessment: This will be based on the primary and secondary data
sources. Secondary data source includes Gazetteer of project districts, maps and District
Census Handbook, 2001. A questionnaire will be used to conduct census and socio-
economic survey.
This Social Assessment (SIA) report will be prepared as per the National Policy on the
Resettlement and Rehabilitation of Project Affected Families – 2007 (NIPRR – 2007) and will
based on data collected from field survey. The primary purpose for preparation Socio Impact
Assessment (SIA) will to assess the socio-economic condition of the Affected Persons (APs)
in order to minimize and provide mitigative measures. Since the displacement is
indispensable, rehabilitation shall be done in such a manner so that the standard of living of
APs is restored. Social attention will be paid to the vulnerable group.
35
[Link]. Preparation of Socio-Economic Profile: The data on demography, economy,
development plans, transportation system, road development plan, vehicle fleet,
expenditure on the construction and maintenance of roads, road taxes, transport industry
and accidents would be ascertained.
Strip Plan
The plan showing the features of the project road will be prepared during
alignment option study.
36
Visual classification;
In-situ density and moisture content;
Characterization (grain size and Atterberg’s limits);
Laboratory density and moisture content characteristics; and,
Laboratory CBR and swell.
For problematic soils, the testing will be more rigorous. The characteristics with regard to
permeability and consolidation will also be determined for these soils. The frequency of
sampling and testing of these soils would be finalised after the problematic soil types are
identified along the road.
For the roads along new alignments, the test pits for sub grade soil shall be @5km or for
each soil type, whichever is more. A minimum of three samples should be tested
corresponding to each homogenous segment.
Potential sources for the construction material will be identified for the whole length of the
road. The testing for borrow areas for ascertaining their suitability as Subgrade and fill
materials will include:
5.8.1. Gravel: Gravel quarries will be investigated and tested in the laboratory to establish
their soundness and engineering characteristics. Each quarry located will be explored in
order to identify suitable sources of sub-base material. The testing on gravel samples will
include:
37
5.8.2. Hard stones: The investigations for hard stones will comprise qualitative and
quantitative assessment of potential quarries and to determine their suitability for use in:
[Link]. Stone samples: The testing of hard stone samples for ascertaining their
suitability in road construction and concrete works will include:
Specific gravity;
Water absorption;
flakiness index (for crushed aggregates from existing crushing plants);
Los Angeles Abrasion Value (LAV);
aggregate impact value(AIV));
bitumen affinity and stripping value;
chemical tests (total soluble salts, chloride content, sulphate content, alkali-
silica reaction);
sodium sulphate soundness;
5.8.3. Sand: Potential sources of sand will be identified. The testing for sand samples in the
laboratory will include:
Each potential borrow area and source will be assigned a unique code number for easy
reference. For potential hard stone quarries, the Consultant will also suggest quarrying
method based on engineering geology.
38
The sub-soil exploration investigations will also be used for span arrangement for bridges.
The data of particular importance for the design of structures include:
Soil profile;
Foundation stratum;
Strength characteristics.
safe bearing capacity; and,
rock stratum.
The strength of soil layers will be evaluated in the field using SPT tests. The laboratory
testing of soil samples will normally include:
Hydrological investigations will be carried out for bridge over rivers/channels and other
areas and records of past flooding patterns and drainage patterns for proposing locations of
all drainage structures. The task will be preceded by desk study of available data on
topography (topographic maps), storm duration, rainfall statistics, top soil characteristics,
vegetation cover etc. so as to assess the Catchment areas for all proposed drainage,
provisions. The findings of the desk study will be further supplemented and augmented by a
reconnaissance along the area. All important hydrologic features will be noted during this
field reconnaissance.
The information on high flood level (HFL), low water levels (LWL) will be collected from past
records, local inquiries and visible signs, if any, on the banks of streams and existing
piers/abutments. Local inquiries will also be made with regard to the sections getting water
logged/flooded during heavy rains.
The hydrological studies will bring out the pertinent data required for design including the
following for each catchment area:
catchment area;
rainfall;
39
run-off duration and intensity relationship;
catchment run-off characteristics; and,
channel slopes and discharge characteristics.
The hydrological studies will be performed as per TOR and using widely accepted
procedures. For culverts and bridge locations where the stream channels are established,
the discharge will be computed using the standard procedure
The following types of loading would generally be considered while evolving GAD
dead load;
superimposed dead loads;
live loads (two lanes of class -A or one lane of class 70 R for each carriageway);
40
seismic load;
temperature loads; and
wind load
The bridges will be designed for the live loading which gives the worst effect at the point
under consideration. Appropriate relationships for earth pressure effects will be taken into
consideration. The coefficients for active and passive earth pressure will be calculated based
on properties of soil used for backfilling behind abutments and wing walls. The type of
foundations, either open or caissons will be decided taking into consideration, the
properties of soil and the type of foundations for the nearby structures.
The standards to be followed in respect of the above works will be made in consultation
with NHAI and other concerned department officials.
41
hydrology;
rivers and large bodies of water (ponds, reservoir, dam,lake);
flora andfauna;
geology;
habitat;
general occupation of people in the area;
social infrastructure in thearea;
monuments in the area;and,
Places of historical and religious importance.
Based on a preliminary study of the available data (rainfall zoning, forestry etc.) and maps
(topographic, geology) supplemented by the general impression derived from the visit along
the proposed stretch, it should have been able to identify the basic requirements in respect
of field studies. These requirements will be further refined and finalized during the course of
thestudy.
5.12.3. Initial Social Screening, Social Survey and RAP
Based on the outputs from desk study and field study as mentioned above, the analysis of
the information concerning should be done:
42
sensitive and/or critical natural habitats (e.g. national parks, wildlife reserves,
sanctuaries, secured groves, protected areas, wetlands forests etc.);
major rivers and waterways;
cultural heritage sites, and;
any other potentially sensitive areas.
Based on the above analysis, major conflicts with the proposed road stretch along with the
nature and extent of conflict will be identified. The consultant will suggest and recommend
measures for exclusion, alternative alignments and/or mitigation.
43
5.13. Utility Shifting
The detail inventory for all utilities will be collected from ground reconnaissance. This shall
be plotted on the strip plan prepared at the feasibility stage. After the finalization of
alignment, utilities shall be identified which require relocation. Subsequently a plan showing
all such utilities to be relocated shall be prepared separately for all utilities. A schedule for
relocation of utilities shall be prepared. Joint ground verification shall be conducted with
respective departments. After joint site verification of data and subsequent discussion with
the respective departments, a indicative cost estimate shall be obtained from respective
departments and this cost shall be included in the Total Project Cost (TPC).
The Additional Specifications comprise of specifications for particular items of works not
covered in PART-I
In the absence of any definite provisions on any particular issue in the aforesaid
Specifications, reference may be made to the latest codes and specifications of IRC, IS, BS
and AASHTO in that order. Where even these are silent, the construction and completion of
the works shall conform to sound engineering practice as approved by the Engineer and in
case of any dispute arising out of the interpretation of the above, the decision of the
Engineer shall be final and binding on the Contractor.
44
address safety problems from the beginning of design to reduce future problems. Safety
audits shall be included during the design, construction and maintenance phases of road
projects. Very often safety devices are included in the designs, but are simply not
constructed on the ground. And frequently, road maintenance is limited to fixing potholes
and cleaning drainage facilities, without replacing missing traffic signs, guardrails, road
markings and other safety features essential to create a safe road network.
The main objectives of the Road Safety Audit are summarized as follows:
The identification of potential safety hazards on existing project road, at the
feasibility stage so that they can be eliminated or otherwise treated to mitigate
their adverse effects at minimum cost.
The identification of hazardous features of an existing road so that they can be
eliminated or otherwise treated before they become accident-prone locations.
To ensure the safety requirements of all road users.
To reduce the overall life costs of a road project to the community.
5.15.1. Quantities: Based on the designs and drawings, a bill of quantities will be
prepared by the Consultant as under:
preliminary and general items;
site clearance and earth works;
sub-base, base and surfacing courses;
drains, culverts and protection work;
major structures and bridges;
road furniture;
ancillary works; and,
Miscellaneous items of works.
45
5.16. Construction Costs
The costs for construction of the Project Road will be worked out on the basis of design
proposals. The item-wise construction costs will be computed using the bill of quantities
derived from the designs, drawings and specifications and the unit rates worked out. The
construction costs will also include the costs of ancillary works, costs for shifting of utilities
and provisions for traffic management and diversion work necessary for traffic movement
during the construction of works.
Impact on Land and Soil Resources: Loss of top soil may occur during widening due to
excavation activities for bed preparation or at borrow area may occur if proper care will not
taken. To avoid loss of top soil, top soil shall be stripped upto depth of 150 mm and
preserved separately and shall be reused for rehabilitation of borrowareas and on
embankment slopes for grass turfing.
Impact on Air Quality: Significant amount of dust may be generated due to site
clearance and excavation activities, stone crushing process, transportation of earth
materials and dumping of extra fills and soils which have potential of deterioration of air
quality during the process. During asphalt preparation, operation of hot mix plants need
burning of fuels that result into release of significant amount of gaseous pollutants into the
atmosphere like to deteriorate sulfur, hydrocarbons and particulate matters. All these
processes are likely to deteriorate the air quality in general and also cause occupational
exposure in particular. This impact is, however, temporary one that will remain only upto
period of clearance and excavation processes. The problems related to the deterioration of
air quality, however, will be temporal in nature till the construction period only. Further
such type of problem can be mitigated through ensuring regular water sprinkling,
installation of dust suppression system at plant sites, regular maintenance of plants and
equipments and conforming to the emission standards laid down by the Central Pollution
Control Board.
Impact on Noise: Slight increase in ambient noise levels will be anticipated during
construction period due to operation of plants and equipments as well as movement of
construction vehicles; however the rise may not be continuous. Proper scheduling of work
46
and sitting of noise generating equipments away from settlement areas can be effective in
managing noise due to construction activities.
Impact on Water Resources: Bridge foundation work may result into generation of
some quantity of debris materials due to excavation and drilling works. These wastes may
cause temporary increase in turbidity and siltation and thereby contaminating the water but
such situation may occur for short duration. The impact may be mitigated by providing
cofferdams and silt trap around the foundation site before start of pilling/drilling work.
Health and Safety: Dust and gaseous emissions from different construction activities
may lead to deterioration of health of workers as well as the people living in close proximity
of construction or plant sites.
Impact on Flora and Fauna: There will be a lot of trees are likely to be affected due to
project work. Appropriate compensatory plantation shall be carried out to compensate the
vegetation loss due to felling of trees for site clearance. The compensatory plantation shall
be carried out as per Forest Rules of Government of Odisha. In addition to this, additional
roadside plantation shall be planned and carried out as per IRC: SP: 21-2009.
Impact during Operation: The road users will find difficulties while travelling through the
road. The surrounding inhabitants will also be affected. It should be taken care that
complete safety measures must be looked upon to prevent from any accident.

Modern material specifications such as MORTH provide standardized criteria for materials like cement concrete and reinforcement bars used in construction. These guidelines ensure consistent quality and performance across projects, reducing the risk of structural failures and improving longevity and safety. Adherence to these specifications helps ensure that projects meet national construction standards .
Hydrological studies contribute by assessing catchment areas, rainfall patterns, run-off characteristics, and channel slopes. These data inform the design of drainage structures and the placement of bridges to handle expected water flows, thus ensuring structural integrity and public safety during flooding . They also help in computing discharge using standard procedures, which are critical for designing effective drainage systems .
Social impact assessment (SIA) is crucial as it evaluates how a road project will affect the socio-economic conditions of affected persons (APs). It ensures displacement is handled so the living standards of APs are maintained or improved. It is conducted using primary data from field surveys and secondary data from resources like the District Census Handbook, with methodologies aligned to national policies on resettlement and rehabilitation .
Conducting long section surveys at varying intervals allows for more accurate data collection where the topography changes significantly. A closer interval is necessary where there are vertical profile changes, curve points, and other features like small streams. This targeted approach provides detailed information that can optimize road design and accommodate geographical challenges .
Conducting surveys up to 500m width at major junctions is essential to capture the full impact of traffic volume and flow, and to adequately design improvements like grade-separated structures. This involves surveying the entire area, noting road conditions, physical features, and potential bottlenecks to ensure the intersection accommodates future growth and development .
The classification system for trees based on girth affects survey methodology by determining which trees need to be recorded and classified during a road survey. Only trees with a girth of 0.3 meters or more are recorded, thus excluding smaller trees from detailed survey processes . This impacts the data collection by focusing resources on larger trees, which are more likely to affect road planning and construction.
Temporary survey stations enhance accuracy and scope by providing additional points from which details not visible from traverse stations can be measured. They allow surveys to extend beyond immediate visible stations, ensuring complete data capture for complex terrains. This improves accuracy as the network of survey data is better connected and traversed by known stations .
In rural settings, drains are generally coded as top and bottom of the drain focusing on basic drainage roles. In urban settings, where drainage's significance increases for infrastructure design, man-made drains are coded more elaborately to integrate with existing networks and mitigate urban flooding. This differential approach reflects varying priorities based on the local environment and requirements .
Involving both primary and secondary data sources ensures a comprehensive understanding of socio-economic conditions. Primary data provides current and specific insights from the field, while secondary data offers historical context and broader trends. Together, they enable a well-rounded assessment of impacts and necessary mitigation strategies crucial for effective resettlement planning and policy adherence .
Geotechnical investigation plays a key role in span arrangement by determining the soil profile, foundation stratum, and strength characteristics of the soil. These factors are crucial in deciding the size and type of foundations required, thus influencing the span arrangement for stability and safety of the bridge . Precise data from these investigations avoid over-design and associated costs by providing necessary strength evaluations and seismological information .
