The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), through its P6 Delhi office in coordination with the Regional Office Bangalore, invited a tender for the construction of a retaining wall along selected stretches of National Highway 275. This project spans from km 78.000 to km 125.000 of the Bantwal–Bangalore section in the state of Karnataka. It is part of the Annual Plan 2024–25 and will be executed on EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) mode.
The retaining wall construction is aimed at strengthening road infrastructure in hilly and vulnerable sections of NH-275. These structures are essential for preventing soil erosion, landslides, and road damage, especially during heavy rainfall. The project is expected to enhance road safety, improve slope stability, and ensure uninterrupted vehicular movement.
The NH-275 corridor is a key highway in Karnataka, linking major towns and facilitating the movement of goods and passengers. Upgrading this section with proper retaining walls aligns with MoRTH’s commitment to sustainable and durable infrastructure development across national highways.
