NHAI invites bids for ₹1,331-cr Dharmapuri-Hosur highway
The NHAI recently invited bids to widen the 71.11 km Dharmapuri-Hosur (Thorapalli) section of the recently upgraded NH 844, into four-lane at a cost of Rs 1,331 crore. The battered two-lane stretch earlier was part of the 101 km Malur - Hosur - Adhiyaman Kottai State Highways 71 it is now being upgraded into four-lane second entry to Hosur from Dharmapuri which so far had only one route via Krishnagiri. Once the proposed road is widened into four-lane, motorists from Salem can directly reach Hosur via Dharmapuri, Royakottai and Jittandahallim without entering Krishnagiri, thereby cutting the travel distance by 25 km, said official sources, adding that the proposed road project would also decongest the 51 km of Chennai - Bengaluru NH between Krishnagiri and Hosur. The road also will reduce the travel distance to Hosur airport from Salem as the Krishnagiri - Hosur stretch remains congested throug the year as the road is the only gateway for Bengaluru and Hosur.
