PRELIMINARY ANALYSIS OF CHANGING OF ALIGNMENT FOR SAMAI TO VARANG AXIS

Alignments Advantages Disadvantages

1. Zorinpui-Samai-  Short Route  Only 3 villages covered
DoJaung-Kaletwa till Dojaung.
 Heavy Earthwork will be
required due to
steep/hilly terrain
 Work can be commenced
from one side only(i.e
Zorinpui)
 Problem in water &
logistics supply
 Survey work will be
more time taking.
2. Zorinpui-Varang-  More villages can be  Three small villages
Dojaung-Kaltewa covered till Dojaung ( neglected, however
Nos of Beneficiary will be the alignment goes
more) , The close to these villages.
reconnaissance survey is  The number of
in progress. structures / length
 Alignment will be of the structures
followed by the natural maybe differed from
alignment of Singlui
the agreement.
River
 The length of stretch
 Comparatively less
may be increase of
earthworks will be
about 3.2-3.8 Km
required. Hence design
speed will be enhanced
 Due to smooth gradient
of the alignment, the
wear and tear cost of the
vehicle and the
carriageway will be less.
 Work can be commenced
from 3 sides and water
from construction
purpose will be available.
Hence progress of work
can be faster.
 Zorinpui-Varang
 Varang Down till 5 km
 From Down (10km)
towards varang-5 km
 Water Available from
River Singlui for
construction purpose
 Logistics facilitated by
movement on boats over
River Singlui
 Myanmar army posts
enroute provides
security
 Generally hard soil / soft
rock will be found at
 river side stretches
which may reduce the
length of breast wall &
retaining wall.
 Easy survey from river
bank side
