महाराष्ट्र में बना दुनिया का पहला बंबू क्रैश बैरियर: बहु-बल्ली नाम दिया गया, नितिन गडकरी बोले- यह आत्मनिर्भर भारत की दिशा में खास उपलब्धि

The world’s first bamboo crash barrier has been installed on a highway in Maharashtra. Union Home Minister Nitin Gadkari has described it as a special achievement for the country in the direction of self-reliant India. He said that this crash barrier is the right alternative to steel. It also does not harm the environment. This barrier, named Bahu-Balli, has been installed within a radius of 200 meters on the Vani-Warora highway.

Crash Barrier Length 200 Meters
Nitin Gadkari tweeted its picture. He informed that a 200 meter long bamboo crash barrier has been installed on a highway connecting Chandrapur and Yavatmal districts in Maharashtra. This is the world’s first bamboo crash barrier. This barrier has been named Bahu-Balli, which is similar to the word Bahubali.

He told that this crash barrier has been installed only after testing the strength. Its strength has been tested in government institutions like the National Automotive Test Tracks (NATRAX) at Pithampur, Indore. The barrier was then subjected to a fire rating test at the Central Building Research Institute (CBRI) in Roorkee, in which it received a Class 1 rating. The Indian Road Congress also recognized this.

It is being described as a better step towards self-reliant India and environmental protection. Actually, it is a good alternative to steel barrier. Explain that the recycling value of steel crash barriers is 30-50%, while the recycling value of bamboo barriers is 50-70%.

Carrier made of bamboo of Bambusa balcoa species
Bamboo crash barrier has been made from bamboo species Bambusa balcoa, which has been treated with creosote oil. It has a coating of recycled high-density polyethylene (HDPI). This will give a boost to rural industry.
