  8.  Agalega Airstrip<\/strong>
    \nThe project is concerned with the upgrading of the Agalega airstrip. The airstrip was constructed in Year 1985 and is actually in a deteriorating state. It has to be resurfaced to allow safe landing and take-off of planes such as \u2018Dornier\u2019 and the ATR 72.
    \nThe length of the airstrip is 1300mts and the width is 30mts. It is proposed to overlay 50mm of asphaltic concrete on the top surface.
    \nThe scope of works reads as follows:
    \n(i) Grading, re-profiling and stretching of the existing runway.
    \n(ii) Overlay of 50 mm of asphaltic concrete.
    \n(iii) Construction of a new taxiway and apron.
    \n(iv) Provision of runway and safety areas.
    \n(v) Site clearance and falling of trees.
    \n(vi) Set up of a small terminal and control tower.
    \n(vii) Provision for night landing.
    \n(viii) Fencing.
    \n(ix) Ancillary works.<\/li>\n
  9. Construction of a New Jetty at Agalega<\/strong>
    \nAgalega has neither a harbour nor a proper Port where vessels can berth for loading and unloading of cargo and passengers.
    \nVessels have to anchor in the deep sea. Passengers and cargo are transported to the jetty via barges. Such an exercise is a very traditional one and is dangerous especially when the sea is rough.
    \nIt is proposed to construct a T shape jetty of 150mts long from the shore. This will enable vessels to berth where embarkation and disembarkation would become easy.
    \nSimilarly such processes will take less time and huge amount can be saved from chartering of vessel.
    \nA provision of Rs 127,500,000 is earmarked for Year 2014 under the items upgrading sea and air transportation and other infrastructure for Year 2014 and the amount of Rs 396,500,000 earmarked whether for Year 2014 a provision of Rs 197,500,000 is made thus totalling Rs 721,500,000 spread over 3 years<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
