Abstract: Transport and highway construction play a key role in infrastructure development. As a result, there is tremendous construction activity going on in this field. Irrespective of the numerous works in road and highway works, there is a drastic change in the environmental components due to the works as there was no environmental control board in earlier days. Due to the increase in pollution of all the components of the environment, new government bodies were formed in which environmental impact assessment is one such government body which concerns the environmental effects in construction projects and tries to reduce the pollution of environmental components. The study in this paper is about environmental impact assessment and environmental management plan for NH216, Ipurupalem, Repalle and Andhra Pradesh. The methodology used is based on environmental impact assessment and environmental management plan by assessing the affected environmental components by collecting the baseline data, analyzing the extent of pollution, estimate the approximate future pollution and suggesting mitigation measures for the affected components. The results will be based on the environmental audit for the proposed mitigation measures and the impact of proposed mitigation measures.
