3.5kms long 10 land road

This proposal has been sent to the Central highway authority by Mangaluru National Highway Authority. There is a possibility for conduction of an extended survey and the appointing of a consultant for the creation of the map.
Decision next week
There is a possibility that the 10 lane road proposal submitted by the highway authority may get approved at the meeting to be conducted next week at New Delhi and receive approval for the survey and the appointment of consultant of the creation of the map. Earlier a proposal for the upgrading of the road at the cost of Rs. 925 crore had been sent to the center. But, the centre considered the proposal expensive and suggested for another proposal. Now a new proposal costing Rs. 300 crore has been submitted.
Express corridor
Under ‘Bharatmala’ project, there is a plan to create a six-lane road to connect the state’s capital with the port. In this way, a six-lane road from B.C.

Nanthoor Overpass, KPT Flyover
