Government proposes 19.5 lakh crore national highway development programme

IndiaTimes Tuesday, 19 December 2023
The road transport ministry has proposed a programme to build and widen around 41,000 km of national highways, including 15,000 km of high speed (access-controlled) corridors, by 2031-32. The projects under the first phase of the proposed master plan for highway development would be bid out by 2028-29 and the construction would be completed by 2031-32. High speed corridors have been identified to ensure accessibility within 100-150 km from any part of India and to decongest the NHs around cities and urban areas. India ultimately needs around 50,000 km of high speed corridors.
