Union Cabinet approves construction of JNPA Port-Chowk expressway in Maharashtra
Hindustan TimesNew Delhi: The Union Cabinet on Wednesday approved the construction of a 30-km-long six-lane expressway, which includes two tunnels, from Jawarharlal Nehru Port Authority at Pagote to Chowk in Maharashtra. This access-controlled greenfield high-speed national highway project is in line with the PM Gatishakti National Master Plan principles of having integrated multimodal connectivity for efficient transfer of goods, connecting the port with the upcoming Navi Mumbai airport, a government release said. The project alignment starts at JNPA port and ends at Mumbai-Pune Highway while also linking Mumbai Pune Expressway and Mumbai Goa National highway. “Currently, it takes 2-3 hours for vehicles to move from JNPA Port to the arterial Golden Quadrilateral section of NH-48 and Mumbai – Pune Expressway due to heavy congestion in urban areas like Palaspe Phata, D-Point, Kalamboli junction, Panvel,” the release said.
