The Chorla highway from Goa to Belagavi will be handed over to the central highways management and the process in this context has begun.
The central highways management at Hubli has written to the Goa government on the matter and the highway will soon be transferred. The construction was announced by the central highways management.
The highway has been widened up to Piranwadi, and the work on the road between Piranwadi and Goa will commence soon at a cost of around Rs 200 crore. The work was launched from Belagavi by Union Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari a few days ago.
The highway will be turned into a four-lane road. The road to Kankumbi is satisfactorily wide, however, it will be further increased and the road will be widened in the Ghat area within Goa. According to sources in the central highways management, the widening process will be undertaken from both sides.
Also, after the commencement of the work on this road, action is likely to be taken on the roadside constructions within the Goa boundary, including in the areas of Keri, Parye, Morle and Sankhali. The survey was conducted a few years ago.

Great! Cut down hundreds/thousands of trees in the name of development.
I don’t think so bcoz all forest will be losed and nature will be damage hope it’s better give some shape on curving areas
Instead, i am sure Mr Gadkari can propose a 4lane tunnel which will save the environment and accidents as well. No road side hawkers as well.
Gadkari ji. Appreciate great effort by central government with you leading all projects successfully. Yes, one very important thing to save life. Pl make speed breakers are painted and the pain’ is maintained always. Yes. It is not your job to paint but atleast you can bring in a legislation to make sure the painting on speed breakers is regularly if not face strict panelty. Will you please do this sir to save lives.
