"We have already put up metal crash barriers for 16 km and will install 70 km more," he said. "We have also completed 103 km of concretisation out of the 112 km of highway inside Maharashtra."

Kumar added that NHAI had just approved a plan for road signage worth ₹25.5 crore, and tenders would be issued soon. "We have given three ambulances, and are also giving one advanced life-support ambulance to be posted in areas where no medical facilities exist," he said. "Also, the public health department is constructing a 200-bed trauma care hospital in Manor town."

The hospital was still far from complete, said Kumar. Dr Ramdas Marad, Palghar district's civil surgeon, said that the Public Works Department had completed the civil work and was in process of carrying out the electrical work.
