Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai has assured full cooperation and speedy approvals for implementing the project.
Shiradi ghat road needs immediate upgradation. The road usually is in pitiable condition during the monsoon season and unmotorable. So the union government has cleared the proposal to upgrade it into a 4-lane highway.

With the upgradation the entire stretch of highway between Bengaluru and Mangaluru would become a 4-lane road. The 4-laning of national highway 75 will accelerate the economic growth of the region.
The union minister has instructed the NHAI to study the proposal to build a 6-lane tunnel through the Shiradi ghat.
