To help industrialisation in West Bengal, the State government will improve road connectivity by widening nearly 4,000 km of State highways, said the State Commerce and Industries Minister Partha Chatterjee. Widening of around 1,000-km State highway is likely to be completed this year, he added.
He promised that the State government would speed up road works facilitate industries. Chatterjee said this during a seminar on BengalÂ’s growth organised by the Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (Assocham).
The Minister stated that the State government has already invited financial bids for widening (four-laning) of a 42-km stretch connecting two crucial national highways – NH2 and NH34.
