Four lane NH in Kerala to connect ICTT Vallarpadam with Kalamassery

Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has said Coastal and port connectivity infrastructure play a pivotal role in a nation's economic growth. In a series of tweets, he said in Kerala, a 4-lane National Highway (NH) has been developed at a total cost of Rs 5.71 billion to connect ICTT (International Container Transhipment Terminal) Vallarpadam with Kalamassery.

The Minister said the project involved the construction of a port connectivity highway, stretching 8.721 km through the backwaters of the Arabian Sea at Cochin, on reclaimed land. He said this highway links the North-South Corridor for freight movement to Cochin Port, thereby facilitating the transportation of goods.

Furthermore, this highway enhances the mobility of eight seashore villages and has significantly contributed to the socio-economic development of the region, he added.

Gadkari said under the leadership of PM Shri Narendra Modi our unwavering commitment is to deliver time-bound, cost-effective, high-quality, and sustainable road infrastructure that serves the needs of our citizens.
