Ayodhya’s First Ring Road Project Begins to Ease Traffic
To accommodate surging traffic and support the city’s growing prominence post-Ram Temple inauguration, the Uttar Pradesh government has begun constructing Ayodhya’s first ring road — a transformative project aimed at strengthening regional connectivity and easing congestion.
Estimated at ?3,935 crore, the 67.17-km road will directly link Ayodhya to major cities like Lucknow, Varanasi, Prayagraj, and Raebareli. The project is strategically designed to promote faster, smoother, and safer travel.
Key Features:
Two major bridges over the Saryu River
Seven flyovers and four railway overbridges for seamless intercity access
Sixteen underpasses to reduce bottlenecks and ensure uninterrupted movement
Project Division & Design: The road is divided into two parts:
Northern Ayodhya Bypass: 35.40 km
Southern Ayodhya Bypass: 32.172 km
With four to six lanes, the road is tailored for high-capacity movement, supporting both commercial transport and religious tourism.
Officials believe the ring road will not only reduce traffic pressure within the city but also improve access to Ayodhya’s religious and historical destinations, positioning it as a modern, well-connected pilgrimage hub.
