NHAI launches ₹2,800-cr highway projects in Chennai
NHAI has resumed three major road projects in the Chennai region involving an estimated investment of ₹2,800 crore. NHAI has already obtained permission from Trichy district administration to resume construction work four-laning of Trichy-Kallam section of NH 209 (new number 83) connecting Dindigul and Bengaluru. The project is being implemented at a cost of ₹1,020 crore with about 200 laborers, including migrant ones. They have been working in groups in different locations along the Trichy-Kallam section. Construction work of Kallagam-Meenuritti section of Trichy-Chidambaram NH 227 has also started with project cost of ₹1,071 crore with about 240 workers. In the absence of migrant workers, the concessionaires of the project are trying to get workers from local areas. NHAI has been sourcing raw materials to complete the work of Tindivanam-Krishnagiri section, which is being implemented at a cost of ₹435 crore and work will soon resume on the Tindivanam side of the project. The four-laning of the 26-km stretch of Pollachi-Coimbatore section of NH 209 is nearing completion. Coimbatore district administration gave permission to start the work as the executing agency has to complete the ₹414 crore projects before the lockdown is lifted. NHAI has effectively used the lockdown period and completed 97.94% of the road works, said an official attached to NHAI's Coimbatore project unit.
