Quote:CUTTACK: Cuttack is set to get a major infrastructure upgrade with a Rs 640 crore elevated corridor connecting OMP Square to Kandarpur.
The project will ease heavy traffic congestion along National Highway 55. The detailed project report (DPR) is complete and awaiting final approval from the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways. Construction is expected to begin within three months of approval, said Cuttack MP Bhartruhari Mahtab on Sunday.
The 13 km-long corridor will include service roads, double-lane paved shoulders, flyovers, and grade separators. It will significantly cut down travel time and improve road safety for both daily commuters and heavy vehicles, Mahtab said.
Note that this is different from an expressway connecting Tangi and Kandarpur as described in https://agrawalinfrabuild.com/cuttack-to-kandarpur-odisha/ and https://indiainvestmentgrid.gov.in/opportunities/nip-project/619002
