The project entails the development of bypass road to Sandur Town,
which will help in diverting the heavy iron ore traffic moving from
mines situated in and around Sandur, away from the town. The Sandur
Bypass will be a 2-lane road with Earthen Shoulders on either side
having three sections i.e. “Eastern Section” (8.583 km),
“Northern Section” (6.943 km) and “Bhujanganagar
Bypass” (0.072 km).
Sandur, situated in Bellary district of Karnataka, is known for
its high demand in rich iron ore resource in the domestic and international
markets. As a result of this, mining activity in the region is on
in full swing. This leads to movement of iron ore through the town
causing heavy pollution and distress to its residents. Sandur Town
is encompassed with roads leading to major towns of Bellary district
like Hospet and Bellary town. The town has a state highway, SH-40,
connecting Kudgli to Bellary and passing through the center of the
city while Hospet is connected to Sandur town with a Major District
Road (MDR). A Zila Parishad road connecting the MDR on the Hospet
side of SH-40 forms a part of an alternative link to Sandur town.
This road is in bad condition and extremely difficult to manouevre,
stressing on the urgency for constructing bypass roads to Sandur.
Sandur town is well connected to railway lines for transporting
the raw material from the mines and has railway heads at Yashwantpura,
Ranjitpura, Banihatti and Hospet railway yard. However, it has no
provision for passenger transportation with Hospet being the only
railway station nearby.
