Tenders are opening in India for five key highway projects worth a total of US$1.48 billion. The projects include widening the Iccahapuram-Srikakulam-Anandpuram highway in Andhra Pradesh to six-lanes and upgrading the 223km Jabalpur-Katni-Rewa highway to four-lanes. Both the lane-widening projects are on build, operate and transfer (BOT) basis.
