Add para 1816 in Chapter-XVIII as under :
1816A. Construction of Rail Overbridge/Underbridge
in replacement of a manned level crossing on Build-Operate-Transfer(BOT) basis-
With a view to enlisting participation from private sector in the matter of
construction of road overbridges/underbridges, private entrepreneurs have been
permitted to build road overbridges/underbridges in replacement of existing
level crossings on BOT (build,operate and transfer)basis. Under this system,
the entrepreneur provides the full funds and builds the road overbridge/underbridge
as plans and drawings approved by the railway administration/road authority. In
turn, the private entrepreneur is permitted to levy toll on road traffic and/or
commercially exploit the space under the approaches of the bridge. The duration
and other terms and conditions for levy of the toll/commercial exploitation of
space are to be decided by the Road Authority. At the end of the agreed period,
the structure would revert back to the Road/Authority/Railway Administration.
During the contract period, the maintenance of the approaches and bridge proper
will be the responsibility of the Road Authority/private entrepreneur. After
the expiry of the contract period, the bridge portion will be maintained by the
railway administration and the approaches by the road authority at their own
cost. Railway’s liability towards maintenance of bridge proper will be limited
to two lane wide ROB/RUB only and the Road Authority will pay to the Railway
Administration maintenance charges attributable to the additional width, if
any. Before the work is taken up the Road Authority is required to execute an
agreement with the Railway Administration. Two model agreements – one to be
executed with the National Highways Authority of India and the other to be
executed with the State Government, as the case may be given in appendix.
