NHAI changes coastal highway project once again, cancels bids
The New Indian Express Sambalpur
|May 26, 2025
The much-awaited Odisha coastal highway is set to be delayed further as the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has once again cancelled the tenders floated for four segments of the first half of the 346-km project reportedly due to a last-minute change in plans over traffic volume.
Although the tender annulment notice issued by the manager (tech) of NHAI-Odisha circle attributed the cancellation to administrative reasons, sources said the bids were cancelled a day before the scheduled opening on Friday due to significant changes in the detailed project report (DPR).
"The coastal highway, being planned as an alternative and parallel carriageway to the existing NH-16, will be developed as a two-lane paved shoulder access controlled highway instead of the earlier four-lane design. The DPR is being modified accordingly," sources told The New Indian Express.
