If things go according to plan, motorists will be able to take the Mumbai-Nagpur Samruddhi expressway from Bhiwandi itself by March this year.
MUMBAI:
Work on the 76-km stretch between Igatpuri and Amane near Bhiwandi will be completed by month-end, following which it will be inaugurated by chief minister Devendra Fadnavis, said officials from Maharashtra State Road Development Corporation (MSRDC), the nodal agency for the project.
"Lane-marking and painting works, which are undertaken only after all other works are completed, have commenced. They will be completed by February 25-27, after which the highway will be ready for public use," said an MSRDC official in the know of the project.
An inaugural function will be held in March depending on the availability of the chief minister and two deputy chief ministers, Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar, the official added.
