Hosur – Krishnagiri Project Of NH-7

1. PROJECT LOCATION MAP:

2.  EXECUTIVE SUMMARY :

The Government of India (GOI) through Ministry of Shipping Road Transport & Highways (MORT & H) is contemplating to enhance the traffic capacity and safety for efficient transportation of goods as well as passenger traffic on the very heavy traffic intensity National Highways. The Government of India had entrusted to National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) for the development, maintenance and management of NH-7 from km 33+130 to km 93+000 (59.87km) in the state of Tamil Nadu.

In order to provide a better level of service to the vehicular traffic and to augment the capacity of NH 07 (NH-44 New) by widening the existing four lane to six lanes divided carriageway facility including rehabilitation/strengthening of the existing four lane, it has been decided to carry out the works under NHDP Phase V as BOT (Toll) on Design, Build, Finance, Operate & Transfer (DBFOT) basis.

3.  SCOPE OF THE PROJECT:

The scope of the project include the following during the concession period:
