A 69 km ring road for Belagavi has been approved under the Bharatmala 6 project. As per the September 2017 notification of any NHAI project being implemented in the state, the state will have to bear 50% of the land acquisition cost, this was not there earlier.

This project was first envisaged and DPR was prepared in 2017 and around 9 alignments were studied which would align with the National Highway and ease the traffic load in the city. The project has been divided into 3 separate packages for ease of execution.

After the tender is awarded it may take 24 months for the project to be completed of 58 kms out of the 69 kms. The remaining 11 kms stretch comes under Forest for which approvals will have to be taken and as there are 3 separate packages 2 can be executed and one even if delayed will ease a load of traffic in the city.
