Pratap Simha wants six lanes on the 23-km stretch
Anticipating a rise in vehicular traffic between Mysuru and Nanjangud, Mysuru MP Pratap Simha has urged the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) to upgrade the 23-km stretch of highway from the existing four lanes to six lanes. It is part of National Highway (NH) 212 between the border of Kerala and Kollegal in Karnataka. The stretch of road is busy with traffic plying between the city and the industrial townships in Nanjangud area and the vehicles operating to and from Ooty and Kozhikode, besides Bandipur national park. It is expected to go up further with the construction of Multi-Modal Logistic Park by Container Corporation of India (CONCOR), a subsidiary of Indian Railways, at Kadakola near Nanjangud, said Mr. Simha.More Related News
