Major General BC Khanduri, the union minister for road transport and highways, laid the foundation stone for the widening of 35 kilometer first stretch of Hyderabad-Vijayawada highway to four lane yesterday. | |
| On the occasion, the minister offered to upgrade the project to six lane highway if the state government provided the additional land. |
| |
| He was reacting to chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu's plea to convert the present Hyderabad-Vijayawada highway into a six lane highway instead of a four- lane one. |
| |
| The expansion of the 35 km stretch from the 10 km point to the 41 km point on the two-lane highway was taken up with Rs 40 crore cost under the Golden Quadrilateral project. |
