Vented Dam-Cum-Bridge Between Harekala & Adyar Almost Done: Water to be Impounded by November

Work on the ₹174-crore vented dam-cum-bridge between Harekala and Adyar on the northern bank of the Netravathi has almost been completed and the Minor Irrigation Department has drawn up plans to impound water starting November. The process of facilitating electrical operation of these gates is on, while all civil works have been completed. The department will plan to open the bridge for vehicular traffic too.

The project primarily seeks to provide potable water to residents of Mangalore constituency, including the education hub around Konaje, Ullal, Talapady and surrounding areas. It also seeks to irrigate about 260 hectares of land in Harekala, Pavoor and surrounding areas. Another major benefit of the project is that it provides direct access to areas around Konaje to National Highway 75 through the bridge.

While the bridge and the dam will be ready by the end of the year, the Karnataka Urban Water Supply and Drainage Board has to make arrangements for supply of drinking water to the targeted areas. Pumping house and related paraphernalia will be built in due course.
