NHAI fast tracks Chennai-Bengaluru highway project
The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) has set an 18-month deadline for completion of the widening of the Chennai-Bengaluru Highways. It is scheduled to be completed by May 2021. Of the 326 km Chennai-Bengaluru Bypass Road (National Highway 48), the 61-km stretch between Sriperumbudur and Walajah Road has four lanes and the Koyambedu-Sriperumbudur Road and Walajah-Bengaluru Road will have six lanes. The construction work from Sriperambudur to Walajapet has been awarded in two parts and is to be completed by May 2021. Sources said that development of the six-lane corridor between Maduravoyal and Sriperambudur is envisaged as a part of Bengaluru-Chennai Expressway, for which a Detailed Project Report (DPR) has been prepared. About 70,000 vehicles run along the NH-48 between Maduravoyal and Sriperumbudur per day during peak hours, creating traffic bottlenecks routinely.
