Centre approves revised proposal for widening of Ranipet-Chittoor NH
The New Indian Express Dharmapuri
|December 24, 2024
THE Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MORTH) has set the ball rolling for the widening of the 28-km, two-lane stretch of National Highway 40 from Ranipet to the Tamil Nadu-Andhra Pradesh border into a four-lane highway.
The project that was initially proposed to widen the road to six lanes at ₹980 crore, has been delayed since September 2022 due to road alignment and tender issues.
MORTH has approved the revised proposal at a cost of ₹1,338 crore.
This four-lane access-controlled road will serve as an alternative route to Bengaluru via Chittoor, enhancing connectivity and facilitating faster movement of goods from BHEL, Ranipet SIPCOT and local industries, to the city.
The 180-km stretch of the Chittoor-Bengaluru NH has already been expanded to four lanes.
