Manesar-Palwal e-way delayed

Now it’s official that the opening of the first patch of KMP expressway between Manesar and Palwal will be delayed by at least 15 days.
This means the priority patch, which the private concessionaire has been claiming to open `soon’ for the past two years, could be opened to traffic only by May end.
Talking to TOI at his New Delhi residence on Monday, chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda said the state was seriously after the developer to make the first stretch operational. As of now the Haryana government has set April 30 as the deadline for this stretch.
“There are chances that a couple of more weeks will be needed before this portion of the expressway is opened for traffic. There are a few minor issues, which are holding back the completion, including high tension wire, fuel pipeline and forest clearance for a small patch of land. We are resolving all these issues soon,” Hooda said.
Though the state seems to be justifying the delay, in the past two years, the private concessionaire, KMP Expressway Ltd, has announced several deadlines for this stretch. “If there were so many problems coming in the way of completion of this stretch, then how could the developer set such deadlines?” asked a senior government official.
At a recently held meeting to review the progress of the project, a senior HSIIDC official had highlighted that the developer raised these issues whenever it failed to meet the deadline. The developer had also submitted before the high-level meeting held under the chairmanship of the chief secretary that it would come out with a fresh deadline after assessing the ground situation. Sources in the HSIIDC said so far it has not rescheduled the expected date of inauguration.
