Chief Minister (CM) of Punjab, Amarinder Singh has given his approval to start the process of land acquisition to initiate the project of upgradation and widening of Landran T-junction in Mohali.
Work on the project will commence in FY 2019. The CM has released Rs 23 crore for the project to ease out vehicular congestion at the crossing.
The proposal includes widening of the existing road by another 50 ft on each side and construction of slip roads from Mohali, Banur and Kharar side. Landran T-point connects Mohali with Banur, Fatehgarh Sahib and Kharar as alternate routes for the three destinations.
The project for strengthening of the link roads will also cover the link roads apart from those under Mandi Board. The project will be undertaken by National Highway Auhtority of India (NHAI).
