NHAI has created two Guinness World Records for bituminous concrete laying on the Vanavolu–Vankarakunta section of the six-lane Bengaluru–Kadapa–Vijayawada Economic Corridor.
The records include around 29 lane-kilometres, the longest continuous bituminous concrete laying within 24 hours, and over 10,000 metric tonnes, the highest quantity laid continuously in 24 hours.
The 343-km-long Bengaluru–Kadapa–Vijayawada Economic Corridor is expected to enhance inter-state connectivity between Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh.
Additionally, two more Guinness World Record attempts are underway on the Vanavolu–Vankarakunta–Odulapalle section of NH-544G.
