Indian road sector requires a minimum of three billion-dollar investment every year from normal budget allocations and other sources, the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) said, on Sunday. Roads sector was poised for capacity expansion and quality enhancement, through investment of over US $ billion per annum from normal budgetary allocations, revenues from dedicated cess on petrol and diesel, lending from international funding agencies and public-private participations, the chamber said in a study. The funding was required to ensure that the ongoing road development programmes like the golden quadrilateral, north-south and east-west corridors progressed steadily. The chamber is organising a 2-day workshop with National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) to acquaint international contracting industry about Indian road projects. Bureau Report
