## Status  of  proiects  constructed  and undqr implementation on NW-2

## 1. Facilities  alreadv  created / constructed

- i. Navigational  channel  with least available  depth of 2.5 m between  Bangladesh Border - Neamati, 2.0 m between Neamati  - Dibrugarh and 1.5 m between Dibrugarh  - Sadiya  / Oriumghat are maintained.
- ii. Multimodal terminal at Pandu with Low Level and High Level Jetty.
- iv. Floating terminal at 11 locations on NW-2 i.e. Hatsingimari, Jogighopa, Pandu, Tezpur, Silghat, Biswanathghat,  Neamati,  Bogibeel, Sengajan,  Oakland/ Dibrugarh and Oriumghat.
- iii. Ro-Ro terminal at Dhubri with RCC Ro-Ro  Jetty.
- v. Differential  Global Positioning System (DGPS)  at Dhubri, Jogighopa,  Biswanathghat and Dibrugarh for safe navigation.
- vi. Ro-Ro service for providing connectivity between north bank (Dhubri)  and south bank (Hatsingimari)  of river Brahmaputra. The Ro-Ro service has created a direct link between Assam and Meghalaya enabling trucks/ vehicle to avoid circuitous road route  of approx.220 km through  Jogighopa Bridge. The Ro-Ro services between Dhubri and Hatsingimari started  w.e.f. 01 .07.2017.
7. vii, Day navigational aids for safe shipping and navigation in entire stretches of NW-2.
- viii. Night navigational aids for safe shipping and navigation in Bangladesh  Border  Pandu and Pandu  -  Silghat  stretches of NW-2.
- ix. River Conservancy  Works  like bandalling  and dredging for maintaining  navigable depth in shallow  location.
- x. Fortnightly/ Monthly  Thalweg Survey in entire stretches of NW-2.
- xi. Regular cargo service on NW-2 is carried out by lWAl through departmental  tug and 400 tonne capacity barge (taken  from IWT Assam).

## 2. Proiects under implementation in NER:

- i. Channelization of navigational route between Burhaburhi to Hatsingimari  in Bangladesh  Border  -  Pandu stretch through Water Resource Department, Govt. of Assam. The expected date of completion is by August 2018.
- iii. Procurement  of 2 Self-Propelled  Cutter Suction Dredgers (SPCSDs)  by February 2020.
- ii. Two more Ro-Ro routes have been identified between  (i) Neamati to Kamlabari at an estimated cost of Rs. 215 cr. with length of 12.7 km by waterway (which otherwise takes 410 km of travel by road) to be operationalised  by December  2018, and (ii) Maijan  (Dibrugarh)  to Sengajan at an estimated cost of Rs. 182 cr. and length of 24.7 km by waterway  (which otherwise takes 640 km of travel by Road) to be operationalised  by August 2019.
