In a festive gift to local reidents, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) opened for vehicular traffic another stretch of the partially-access controlled four-lane elevated highway corridor in Ludhiana on Sunday.
Also, the remaining portion of the much-awaited project has reached an advanced stage of completion and will be made operational by the year end, the officials have claimed.
With the opening of 2 km long stretch from Verka Milk Plant to Jagraon Bridge (near Durga Mata Mandir) on Sunday, two lanes of the Rs 756.27 crore elevated highway have been put to use so far.
