The State Public Works Department (PWD) has announced a firm deadline for the repair of National Highway 48 (NH-48) near Kolhapur. The extensive repair work, which has been a significant concern for local residents and commuters due to deteriorating road conditions, is scheduled to be completed by August 2024.

State PWD Minister, Ravindra Chavan, assured that the repair work would address critical issues such as potholes, uneven surfaces, and structural damage that have plagued this crucial transportation route. The project is expected to enhance road safety and improve travel efficiency for thousands of vehicles using the highway daily.

The repair work will be carried out in multiple phases to minimise disruption. Initial focus will be on the most severely affected sections, with subsequent phases targeting remaining stretches of the highway. The department has committed to using high-quality materials and modern construction techniques to ensure long-term durability and performance of the road.

This development is a part of the broader initiative by the state government to upgrade and maintain key infrastructure across Maharashtra. The timely completion of these repairs is anticipated to provide significant relief to residents and businesses dependent on NH-48, reinforcing the government's commitment to improving road infrastructure and public safety.
