HUBLI: If authorities have their way, then the much-anticipated four laning of Hubli-Dharwad Road may be a reality in three years' time. The state cabinet has approved a proposal on widening the 20-km road at a cost of Rs 155.40 crore.

The project comprises service roads, underpasses, footpaths and road-dividers. The Centre has sanctioned Rs 100 crore for the project, which was envisaged in the wake of increased traffic on the road connecting the twin cities.
