The newly constructed ROB(Road Over Bridge) near Jagiroad station under Lumding division of NFR is ready for use by the people. This ROB will replace Level crossing gate no ST-27 at Jagiroad station yard. The gate was a very busy gate with TVU of 669754. With the completion of the Digaru - Hojai doubling works, movement of trains also increased; leading to frequent closure of the gate. Accordingly, to ensure safety of both rail as well as road users this ROB (No 85A) was constructed by Northeast Frontier Railway at a total cost of Rs. 85.96 cr.
Total length of the ROB is 344 meters having a Bow String Arch Steel Girder of 74 meters length. The height of the Bow String Arch Steel Girder is 12.85 meters and weight is 730 MT. This new ROB has newly constructed 3 (three) lane road of 11 meters width connecting NH-24 & NH 715A with viaducts on both sides. 2 stair cases on either side of the Bow String Girder have been provided for the pedestrians to cross the railway track with safety.
