The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has selected Louis Berger to provide consultancy services for the preparation of detailed designs to upgrade around 7820 km of roads for two major road packages in southern India under the Bharatmala-Pariyojna scheme.

The projects will include road widening and alignment; repaving; upgrades to intersections, bridges, bypasses and service roads; new toll plaza design; and improvements for more efficient traffic flow.

Louis Berger will first establish the technical, economic and financial viability of the current road modernisation projects. The firm will then prepare the design, carry out all necessary studies to support interstate four- or six-lane road and economic transport corridor development, and assess various funding options for the modernisation works.
