The 17.7 kilometers, six lane road at the cost of 25.5 crore from Aerodrome to Infocity has been completed. This will remove congestion of traffic to institutional areas and bring relief to the information technology companies situated in the Infocity. The State capital authorities are giving top priority to widen and improve the 493km main road network. The State Government has already signed a MOU with IIT, Kharagpur to prepare a comprehensive development plan. There is a plan to establish a state of art satellite township on the out-skirts of the city. Within next 2-3 years the face of the Capital will have a new look and lustre.
