Rajnath Singh Releases BRO Guide For DPRs On Road Infrastructure Projects

New Delhi, Dec 23 (KNN) Defense Minister Rajnath Singh released the ‘Guide on Preparation of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for Road Infrastructure Projects’ prepared by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) at South Block, New Delhi.

The BRO, responsible for constructing and maintaining highways and strategic roads in some of the country’s most remote and challenging terrains, has developed the guide to streamline project planning and execution.

The guide serves as a detailed reference covering engineering design, construction methodology, execution strategy, quality control, and cost analysis.

It provides uniform specifications, standards, guidelines, and procedures for DPR preparation, supporting engineers at all stages of project formulation, whether for new construction or the upgradation of existing road infrastructure.

By addressing issues of time and cost overruns often caused by inadequately prepared DPRs, the guide aims to enhance the quality and consistency of project reports.

It is expected to facilitate timely execution of projects, improve strategic connectivity, and contribute to the socio-economic development of border regions through systematic planning, technical accuracy, quality assurance, and cost-effectiveness.
