Seaport-Airport Road

This highway passes through the Cochin Special Economic Zone and connects such major industrial units as HMT, FACT, and Kochi Refineries as also the various oil terminals at Irumpanam and also boosts the flow of cargo traffic both from the port and the airport.

The 13-km road constructed in the first phase acting as a by-pass to the NH 47 within the Kochi city limits.

Petroleum tankers from Irumpanam oil terminals can now move north up to Kalamassery without entering the core city areas.

Development of 17 km (11 mi) between HMT and Cochin International Airport and up to Kariyad (near Angamaly, 10°09′47″N 76°22′12″E / 10.163°N 76.370°E / 10.163; 76.370) in NH 47.

After completion of all stretches, this road is expected to ease the pressure on NH 47 especially where it takes more than an hour for a heavy vehicle from the airport to reach the Kochi port.
