The National Highways Authority of India is acquiring lands for the widening of Express Highway to Chennai to 6 lanes and thus reducing the distance between Chennai to Bengaluru to 276 KM and a travelling time of 3 to 4 hours to reach either destination. This will accelerate the development across a part of Karnataka and Tamil Nadu. There is an industrial corridor planned on either side of this Expressway, will generate huge job opportunities and the prices of the land/properties will soon plummet.
