Connectivity through the strategic Ditte Dime-Migging road has been restored after surface communication was cut off since June 19. Connectivity was snapped after an 80-feet Bailey bridge collapsed amid inclement weather.
“Due to continuous heavy rainfall in preceding week, on 19th June 2023, 80 feet Bailey bridge along with a dumper collapsed into the valley on Diite-Dimme-Migging road. As a result, the connectivity to the forward areas like Tuting Sub-Division in Upper Siang district was completely cut-off. Karmayogis of Project Brahmank under BRO responded to the situation immediately and started the construction of diversion work for restoration of connectivity on the same day,” BRO said in a statement.
The Border Roads Organisation displayed exemplary determination and managed to complete the diversion road in a period of 72-hours. The BRO officials could make this possible despite facing numerous challenges including heavy rainfall.
District Administration, Upper Siang has also appreciated the BRO for their quick response in restoring the road connectivity for smooth flow of traffic within a short time and stated that in doing so it has immensely helped in mitigating the hardships faced by the denizens residing in forward areas.
The Ditte Dime-Migging road connects Arunachal Pradesh as well as the rest of the nation to the forward areas like Tuting Sub-Division in Upper Siang district.
