The NHAI is working on four-laning of the Rampur-Kathgodam section of National Highway-87, Union Minster Mansukh Lal Mandaviya told the Rajya Sabha on Tuesday.
"The Rampur-Kathgodam section of this highway is under implementation for four-laning by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI)," he said in a written reply.
He said the detailed project report for the development of the stretch from existing single or intermediate lane to two-lane -- with or without paved shoulder -- has been undertaken (for implementation), an official statement said.
National Highway-87 (old) extends from Rampur in Uttar Pradesh to Jeolikot in Uttarakhand and further through NH-87E up to Karanprayag via Ranikhet.
