Offering lots of promise, the six-laning of Bengaluru-Nidaghatta section of NH-275, crucial for tourism and regional development, is progressing at a faster pace.
Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has said that the "New India of the 21st century" is focused on building the best infrastructure facilities in the world.
Gadkari said in a series of tweets that the Bengaluru-to-Nidaghatta section is part of NH-275 that starts from the junction near Panchamukhi Temple in Bengaluru south zone and ends before Nidaghatta.
This road is a vital stretch for tourism and economy as it passes through towns of Bidadi, Channapatana, and Ramanagara, having the largest market for silk cocoons in Asia, and provides access to the country’s only vulture sanctuary. In addition, it will be connecting Srirangapatna, Mysuru, Ooty, Kerala, and Coorg, he added.
The Minister said that once the project is completed, the travel time of three hours will be reduced to 90 minutes, which will bring down fuel consumption and carbon footprint. He said special care has been taken on the project with road safety enhancements like eliminating the at-grade junctions and providing vehicular underpasses/overpasses to nullify accidents/conflicts.
Gadkari informed that the six bypasses in the stretch are expected to reduce traffic congestion and ensure health, environment, and road safety of towns like Bidadi, Ramanagara, Channarayapatna, Maddur, Mandya, and Srirangapatna for an aggregate length of 51.5 km.
He said that delivering on the promise of 'sabka saath, sabka vikas', Team MoRTH (Ministry of Road Transport and Highways) under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi is working round the clock to complete many such dynamic projects in all corners of the country and bring prosperity to the people.
