Construction of the Mopa Airport Connectivity Road, which will cost Rs 1183 crore, construction of observatory towers on the Zuari Bridge on NH 66, and six Central Road Infrastructure Fund projects totalling Rs 80 crore were among the projects for which the foundation stone was laid.

Gadkari said that the centre has given Rs 22,000 crore to Goa for various development projects since 2014 and that the state requires a two-engine government.

He said that the Eiffel Tower will be the inspiration for the tower. A mobile restaurant will be set up, and visitors will be able to visit the capsule lift by boat.
