Union minister assures NH-66 work completion by 2025-end
T'puram: Chief minister Pinarayi Vijayan met Union transport minister Nitin Gadkari in New Delhi on Wednesday to discuss national highway (NH) development works in Kerala, especially the recent collapse of the embankment and service road on NH-66 at Kooriyad in Malappuram. After the meeting, PWD minister PA Mohamed Riyas told the media that Gadkari promised to complete NH work by the end of 2025. "NH-66 will open as a New Year gift to Kerala," he said. Vijayan, Riyas, Kerala's special representative in New Delhi KV Thomas and chief secretary A Jayathilak attended a 45-minute meeting at Gadkari's office. Riyas said Gadkari listened to the chief minister's concerns and assured there would be no compromise on quality or safety of NH works. He also promised action against those responsible for the collapse in Kerala. Riyas said Gadkari proposed a 360m-long viaduct to fix the issue at Kooriyad. The contractor will bear construction cost and has been barred from future project bids, he said. On May 19, around 2:30pm, the embankment and service road of the under-construction NH-66 collapsed at Kooriyad in Malappuram, between Kolappuram and Kooriyad bridge. This aroused safety concerns among the people. Riyas said Gadkari also assured support for other road projects that are in the pipeline. The Centre will approve Thiruvananthapuram Outer Ring Road by the end of July as the state has completed land acquisition. Work on Kollam-Sengottai greenfield highway is expected to begin by September, he said. Later, Vijayan thanked Gadkari in a social media post, calling the meeting 'productive' and appreciating his review of NH projects in Kerala. "Thank you for your continued support," he wrote.

Work on NH 66 to be completed as per schedule, Centre assures State
The construction on the National Highway 66 would be completed in December 2025 itself as per schedule, assured Union Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari. The assurance was given to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan during a meeting held in New Delhi on Wednesday. Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan also sought to exempt the money spent by Kerala for the land acquisition of highway projects in the State from the borrowing limit of Kerala. However, no assurance was given to the State in this regard, as the Union Minister made it clear that the issue was not within his limits, and an intervention of the Prime Minister was necessary for such demands. Mr. Vijayan said in a social media post that the meeting with the Union Minister was productive. The meeting also reviewed the progress of ongoing National Highway projects in Kerala, he said while thanking his continued support. Speaking to the media after the meeting, Public Works Department Minister P.A. Mohamed Riyas said the work on the NH stretch from Kasaragod to Thiruvananthapuram would be completed in December 2025, and the new NH would be a New Year gift for the Keralites. The assurance for constructing a 360-metre viaduct to replace the collapsed stretch of NH 66 at Kooriyad, near Tirurangadi, in Malappuram was received in the meeting. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has already suspended the staff responsible for the collapse of the road, and the contractor company was prevented from undertaking further activities in the stretch. The expense for constructing the collapsed stretch Kooriyad would be levied from the contractor company. The issues that cropped up in connection with the construction of NH in other parts of the State were also brought to the attention of the Union Minister, and he assured necessary interventions to prevent the recurrence of any such issues in the future, said Mr. Riyas. Out of the 20 projects put forth by the State seeking the approval of the Centre, 14 projects received assurance from the Centre. The projects that received central nods include the Thiruvananthapuram Outer Ring Road project, for which the order will be issued in July, and the Palakkad-Kozhikode Greenfield Highway, the approval for which will be issued by the end of July. The Minister also said that the order for starting the work on the Kollam-Shenkottai Greenfield project will be issued by September. The soil and sludge collected from the water bodies will be used for road construction, but only after ensuring the quality of the material for road construction. The Irrigation and Inland Navigation departments and the NHAI will ensure the quality of the material. The Minister also said that it would be decided later whether there would be restrictions on small vehicles, including bikes and autorickshaws, on NH 66.

Prices of flats along Delhi's Dwarka Expressway doubled in the last 5 years: report
Prices of flats on the Dwarka Expressway, which connects Dwarka in Delhi to Kherki Daula Toll Plaza in Haryana's Guragaon, have doubled in the last five years — from Rs. 9,434 per square feet in 2020 to Rs. 18,668 per square feet in 2024 — according to a report by real estate data analytics firm PropEquity. The report said as many as 15,994 units were launched in the same period, and 16,502 were purchased. It added that 74 per cent of the flats on the Dwarka Expressway in the last five years came in Sectors 113, 37D, 106, 111, and 103. 'Between 2025 and 2030, over 18,000 units are expected to be launched, and over 15,500 units are expected to be absorbed on the Dwarka Expressway, reinforcing sustained future demand,' Samir Jasuja, Founder and CEO, PropEquity, said. Jasuja also said that 4-bedroom apartments have dominated the market in the last five years, with a price range of Rs 4.8 crore to Rs 8.6 crore According to PropEquity, 42,816 units were available in Dwarka Expressway between 2010-2024, and the number of units sold during this period stood at 41,899. 'With a robust land bank of 53 acres, Signature Global has recently launched over 3 million square feet here, and we have a strong upcoming pipeline of 6.4 million sq ft of saleable area in this location,' Pradeep Aggarwal, Founder and Chairman, Signature Global, said. The 29-km Dwarka Expressway, also called Northern Peripheral Road, was proposed in 2006 by the Haryana Government as an alternative route to National Highway-48, connecting Delhi with Gurgaon. Initially slated to be an 18 km project, 14 km of the expressway was operationalised in 2016. Later, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) took over the project, reworked the alignment and categorised it as a National Highway (NH-248BB). The foundation stone was laid in 2019, and 19 km of the Gurgaon stretch was inaugurated in 2024 by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. This 8-lane elevated expressway connects Shiv Murti on NH-48 to Dwarka and terminates at Kherki Daula Toll Plaza in Gurgaon, thereby reducing the travel time between cities, IGI Airport, workplaces and entertainment hubs.
