The road, which starts from Benz Circle in Vijayawada ends at Machilipatnam port site. Pamarru (Krishna district): The national highway between Vijayawada and Machilipatnam is going to prove as a game changer for the people of the area, once completed. This was due to protests from the people whose lands were acquired for the highway and whose shops and buildings were demolished in Vijayawada and Machilipatnam, besides other places. Moreover, people have now started moving to the side of the highway establishing small shops and other commercial establishments, making an entry into highway business.“As of now the business on the highway is insignificant. But once the highway and the Machilipatnam port are ready, we are expecting the business to go up,” quipped a small tea vendor, Satyanarayana at Ogirala village along the highway.The farmers were paid compensation amounting to a total of Rs 500 crore from the initial estimate of Rs 83.01 crore.
