The National Highways Division of the Public Works Department (PWD) has recently finalized a consultancy to carry out a feasibility study and prepares the detailed project report for widening the stretch of Hosdurg-Panathur-Bhagamandala-Madikeri road in Karnataka. For the NH stretch, which has been declared as an NH by the transport ministry recently, the move becomes significant at a time when connectivity between the coast and hinterlands in Karnataka has been snapped following landslips at the Sampaje and the Shiradi Ghats. The proposed NH could be reached from Sullia in Dakshina Kannada at Panathur in Kerala via Aletti (20.7 km). The total distance from Sullia and Madikeri will be 86 km as against 52 km via the direct route through Sampaje Ghat. The consultant would soon commence the allotted work to convert the existing highway into a two-lane road with paved shoulders, said NHAI sources.
