The mineral-rich state of Jharkhand may soon have a network of four-lane road corridors that would improve connectivity throughout its length and breadth.
For six of these corridors in the state, totaling 1,369 km, the Road Construction Department has asked qualified consultants to conduct feasibility studies and prepare the Detailed Project Report (DPR).
East-West Corridor (393 km), Jharkhand Eastern Corridor (121 km), North-South Corridor (275 km), Jharkhand Central Corridor (140 km), Tourist Corridor (270 km), and Holy Tourist Corridor are among the six routes (170 km).
The work’s scope involves creating a 4-lane greenfield stretch as well as upgrading the 2-Lane to 4-Lane layout.
A period of 90 days has been fixed for making the DPR. Once DPR is approved by the state government, the agency will float tenders for construction of these roads.
