The scope of works is set to include construction of carriageways, interchanges and ancillary structures along the designated corridor and will encompass sustained pavement strengthening and asset upkeep. Project delivery is expected to be phased to manage traffic and minimise disruption to existing users while enabling coordinated integration with regional road networks. The expressway is anticipated to support economic activity by reducing transit times and improving supply chain efficiencies. Traffic management plans will be coordinated with local authorities.
The implementation plan envisages close coordination with contractors, consultants and regulatory authorities and will adopt modern construction techniques and materials to meet performance standards. Emphasis will be placed on safety management, environmental mitigation and quality assurance across all stages of execution. Highway Infrastructure Ltd indicated that the project will also create opportunities for local suppliers and a skilled workforce during the construction phase. Environmental assessments and community consultations are integral to early works.
The contract strengthens Highway Infrastructure Ltd order book and expands the company presence in the western transport corridor, reinforcing its capabilities in complex highway projects. The company will proceed with detailed planning, statutory clearances and site mobilisation in line with NHAI oversight and standard governance procedures. The project award is expected to contribute to sustainable transport infrastructure and longer term operational revenues for the firm. The award is likely to influence peer companies seeking highway contracts.
