'''National Highway 183A''', also known as '''NH 183A''', is a [[National Highway (India)|National Highway]] in the Indian state of [[Kerala]] that runs from Chavara Titanium Junction, [[Kollam]], to [[Vandiperiyar]] via [[Adoor]] and [[Pathanamthitta]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://164.100.47.190/loksabhaquestions/annex/11/AU1434.pdf |title=Declaration of Roads connecting to NH-66 as NH |publisher=Government of India |access-date=23 May 2017 |archive-date=6 April 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180406040410/http://164.100.47.190/loksabhaquestions/annex/11/AU1434.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>[http://i1324.photobucket.com/albums/u606/quilonsky/mANORAMANH_zps4dd46cf8.jpg New NH-183A]</ref> It is the 4th National Highway passing through the [[Kollam district]].

==Elevation to National Highway==
The road was declared a [[National Highway (India)|National Highway]] (NH) on 4 March 2014. It conforms to NH standards for a two-lane traffic highway from Adoor to Plapally. The section past Plapally is only 4 meters wide and passes through forest and wildlife areas. The Forest Department raised concerns over the road's alignment. Once upgraded, a new connection from Vandiperiyar to Sabarimala is planned.
Currently the stretch between Angamoozhy Forest Checkpost and Vallakadavu Forest Checkpost is entry restricted and the forest department allows only 30<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://gavikakkionline.com/terms-conditions|title = Terms, Conditions & Policies — Official Gavi-Kakki Eco Tourism Online Ticket Booking Portal by Goodrical Forest Range, Kerala Forest & Wildlife Department}}</ref> private vehicles per day on the route and vehicles entering through Kochandi Check post has to leave only through Vallakkadavu Check post before 6 pm.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://gavikakkionline.com/about|title=About U — Official Gavi-Kakki Eco Tourism Online Ticket Booking Portal by Goodrical Forest Range, Kerala Forest & Wildlife Department}}</ref>
