In a move to develop the country’s infrastructure sector, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) has approved two highways projects under its flagship road building programme National Highways Development Project (NHDP), entailing a total expenditure of Rs 3,001 crore. These two highway projects include four laning of Solapur- Yedeshi (Maharashtra) section of NH 211 and 6/8 laning of JNPT Port road project of Mumbai and will expedite infrastructure improvement in the state.
It is reported that the cost of the 99 km long Solapur- Yedeshi project is around Rs 1,057.82 crore, while, Jawahar Lal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) Port road project cost is estimated to be around Rs 1943.37 crore including the cost of land acquisition, resettlement and rehabilitation and other pre-construction activities. The total length of JNPT Port road project will be approximately 43.912 kms of which 20.95 km will be of 6-laning and 22.962 kms will be of 8-laning. Further, JNPT project corridor highway includes NH-4B and NH-348, which connects the JNPT with the proposed Navi Mumbai International Airport in Maharashtra.
The development of infrastructure is a most critical prerequisite to boost the economy’s growth. Therefore, the government has set the $1-trillion investment target for the infrastructure sector for the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17).
