en.Wedoany.com Reported - The central government of India has approved the construction of a four-lane bypass around Tiruvarur in Tamil Nadu, with an estimated project cost of ₹14.27 billion. Located on National Highway 83, the route will divert through-traffic around the city, effectively separating cross-town traffic and is expected to save passing vehicles approximately 15 minutes of travel time.

The primary objective of the project is to alleviate traffic congestion within Tiruvarur city, providing a faster passage for long-haul and freight transport, while enhancing the overall connectivity of National Highway 83 and supporting regional economic activity. The scope of work also includes the construction of two new railway overbridges on National Highways 129A and 134A, as well as a 14.9-kilometer section of National Highway 83 connecting Nagapattinam and Thanjavur.

Local officials stated that once operational, the bypass will reduce the frequency of heavy vehicles passing through densely populated areas, thereby improving road safety within the city. The project is part of Tamil Nadu's road infrastructure upgrade plan.
