From Sittwe, the Kaladan River will be made navigable for 225 km, up to Kaletwa (Myanmar).
From there, a 62-km highway will take the traffic to the India-Myanmar border in the Indian state of Mizoram.
A road from the border will link the project to India's National Highway 54.
The sea distance between Kolkata and Sittwe is about 540 km.
India is financing the entire $103-million project.
