Commuters were seen struggling in the traffic snarls during the closure of the bridge. According to the Railways, the closure of the old bridge is urgently required for five consecutive days from December 5 from 11 am to 4 pm for launching temporary beams over trestle foundations. Massive traffic snarls were also witnessed yesterday. Reconstruction work at Jagraon Bridge has missed multiple deadlines.
