Durai Vaiko seeks status report on elevated corridor project at Panjapur

With the preparation of the detailed project report (DPR) for the construction of an elevated corridor, planned as part of a semi ring road in the city, dragging on, Tiruchi MP Durai Vaiko has sought a status report on the project from the Union Ministry of Highways and Road Transport.

In 2024, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) decided to prepare a combined DPR for building a four-lane bypass between Panjapur and Thindukarai on Tiruchi-Karur National Highway, along with the elevated corridor at Panjapur, and widening the two-lane bypass between Thuvakudi and Panjapur into a four-lane way.
