What the government approved
The Highways and Minor Ports (HP2) Department granted administrative sanction for the Highways Department to carry out three road projects in Perambalur District. The projects had been recommended by the District Collector, Perambalur, to the Director of Town and Country Planning as part of improvements proposed in the Master Plan document and Local Planning Area of Perambalur District.

Approved road projects
G.O. (Ms) No. 97, dated 25 June 2013, covers the following works:

Who may be affected
Property owners and buyers near the three named road corridors should note that the approved project budget expressly includes land acquisition costs. The document does not identify survey numbers, individual properties, the area of land required or the acquisition procedure. It therefore does not, by itself, confirm that any particular property will be acquired.
Funding and implementation
The Highways Department is responsible for taking up the works through the State Infrastructure and Amenities Fund. The Chief Engineer (Construction and Maintenance) was authorised to incur the sanctioned expenditure pending provision in the Revised Estimates or Final Modified Appropriation for 2013-2014. The document also directs that the expenditure be included in the Supplementary Estimates and records the concurrence of the Finance Department.
