New Delhi: Aiming to enhance logistics efficiency, reduce congestion, and improve connectivity nationwide, India took a significant leap by introducing 8 national high-speed road corridors spanning 936 km.
With an investment of Rs 50,655 crore, these corridors are set to revolutionise connectivity and boost economic growth across India, posted MyGovIndia on X, the citizen engagement platform of the Government of India.
These corridors will not only streamline transportation but also spur economic growth, making them a critical step forward in connecting India like never before.
The Agra-Gwalior corridor is designed to transform the journey to some of India’s most iconic tourist destinations. Enhancing connectivity to the Taj Mahal, Agra Fort, and Gwalior Fort, this corridor will double the traffic capacity and cut travel time by 50 per cent.
Tourists and locals alike will now enjoy faster, more efficient travel to these cultural landmarks, significantly boosting tourism in the region.
A vital link between West Bengal, Odisha, Andhra Pradesh, and the northeast, the Kharagpur-Moregram corridor is set to play a crucial role in regional development.
By increasing traffic capacity by over five times, this project will greatly improve travel efficiency, making the Northeast more accessible and fostering economic growth across these states.
