Redevelopment

In 2022, National Highway Authority of India allocated ₹4,500 crore (US$520 million) to redevelop 318 km (198 mi) of the highway into 90 ft (27 m) wide 4 lanes. The highway was expected to be completed by 2024. [5] However, land acquisition related issues at various places is causing the delay for the project by several years.

In February 2024, in reply to an RTI, NHAI informed that the DPR of this highway is yet to be completed and no indicative period for the commencement and completion of the project was informed. [6]
