The Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region Development Authority (VMRDA) has identified the Vizianagaram Ice Factory Junction-Dharmapuri-Chintalavalasa-Bhogapuram stretch as one of the important routes and kept it in the master plan. However, in the absence of funds, the VMRDA has not taken up the road.
