NHAI says may exceed FY21 target of 4,500 km in awarding projects
National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is likely to exceed the 2020-21 target of awarding road projects covering 4,500 km, of which it has already awarded 40 projects covering 1,330 km in the first half of the fiscal 2020-21, the government agency said on Wednesday.
NHAI said that despite the disruption caused by Covid-19 pandemic, it has awarded these 40 projects that would entail a capital cost of Rs 47,289 crore. The length of the projects awarded in April-September is 60% higher than the 828 km ordered in the same period a year ago.
