 Under PMGSY, in order to promote cost-effectiveness and new construction technologies in the construction of rural roads, including new materials/waste materials/ locally available materials, MoRD/ National Rural Infrastructure Development Agency (NRIDA) had issued ‘Guidelines on Technology Initiatives’, in May 2013. In order to promote innovations/latest technologies on large scale for wider adoption of new/ green technology in rural roads in a much systematic manner, MoRD/ NRIDA has revised the above guidelines and brought “Vision Document on New Technology Initiatives & Guidelines-2022. Under PMGSY, around 1,63,877 km of roads works has been sanctioned using new/ green technology out of which 1,14,789 km has been completed till date.

Under PMGSY, maintenance of rural roads is the responsibility of the State/ UT Governments. The Ministry had issued guidelines for maintenance of roads constructed under the programme. Under PMGSY, roads are covered under a 5-year maintenance contract to be entered into along with a construction contract with the same contractor as per the Standard Bidding Document (SBD). Since the design life of PMGSY roads is ten years, the States have to undertake further five years of maintenance. A MoU has been signed with States/UTs to emphasize on maintenance of roads constructed under PMGSY. The Ministry has also implemented e-MARG i.e. software module for maintenance payments to the contractor during the defect liability period. The post five-year construction module of eMARG incorporates initial rehabilitation, renewal, pre- renewal routine maintenance, post-renewal maintenance and emergency repair works, as required. Maintenance funds to service the contract are required to be budgeted by the State Governments and placed at the disposal of the State Rural Roads Development Agencies (SRRDAs) in a separate maintenance account. On expiry of this 5-year post construction maintenance, PMGSY roads are required to be placed under Zonal maintenance contracts consisting of 5-year maintenance including renewal as per cycle, from time to time.

 

The Union Cabinet on 11^th September, 2024 approved implementation of the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana - IV (PMGSY-IV) during FY 2024-25 to 2028-29. Under the programme, financial assistance is to be provided for the construction of 62,500 Kms road for providing new connectivity to eligible 25,000 unconnected habitations of population size 500+ in plains, 250+ in NE & Hill Sates/UTs, special category areas (Tribal Schedule V, Aspirational Districts/Blocks, Desert areas) and 100+ in Left Wing Extremism (LWE) affected districts as per Census 2011 and construction/ upgradation of bridges on the new connectivity roads. Total outlay of this scheme will be Rs. 70,125 crores. The PMGSY-IV Guidelines have been circulated to all States/ UTs.
