People of Guntur, Krishna and NTR districts along with other road-users have to wait for several months for the Vijayawada Bypass to become a reality.
The deadlines for both the stretches of the bypass road between Chinnakakani-Gollapudi connecting Guntur and NTR districts and Gollapudi and Chinna Avutapalli have been extended owing to the delay in the progress of the projects.
The 47.88-km six-lane stretch of the greenfield national highway between Chinnakakani of Guntur district and Chinna Avutapalli of Krishna district via Gollapudi of NTR district connects the Hyderabad-Machilipatnam (NH 65) and Chennai-Kolakata (NH-16) at Gollapudi and also serves as a bypass to both the national highways passing right through Vijayawada.
