India’s NH-9 highway runs from Hyderabad, the capital city of state of Andhra Pradesh, to Machilipatnam, a port on the Bay of Bengal. As part of its National Highways Development Project, an ambitious four-phase program to upgrade about 25,000 kilometers of key national highways, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) plans to expand this road from two to four or six lanes and examine alternative alignments at certain towns to alleviate congestion.The expansion will employ a buildoperate- transfer model, under which the government carries out preliminary work such as land acquisition and utility removal before turning the construction and operation over to a private concessionaire. Scott Wilson Kirkpatrick India Pvt Ltd (SWK India) was contracted by NHAI to prepare a feasibility study and detailed project report for the NH-9 expansion.
