Flyover construction from Jehangirchowk to Rambagh, Natipora undertaken by Economic Reconstruction Agency (ERA) government of Jammu and Kashmir and financed by Asian Development Bank (ADB) with an estimated cost of $ 485 million is a glaring example of engineering marvel. The project hanging since 2013, after missing several deadlines, expected to get completed in June 2018 is still hanging in ambiguity. The study was undertaken to analyze the impacts of Flyover during its construction phase leaving aside its socioeconomic benefits post completion. The whole length of flyover seems to be influence area of problems. Project site encompasses a lot of sensitive areas like schools, religious places, hospitals all of which appear to face the music of constructional phase in form of increasing SPM( Suspended Particulate Matter), elevated noise levels beyond standards, decreasing values of property, detrimental health effects, resettlement and relocation of displaced people producing long term psychological impacts, affecting socioeconomic conditions of area.
