6,000 Kms of ev-Ready Highways to Emerge on Golden Quadrilateral

India has unveiled an ambitious plan to revolutionize its transportation landscape by developing 6,000 kilometres of electric vehicle-ready highways along the Golden Quadrilateral. This strategic initiative represents a transformative leap toward sustainable mobility, with the goal of fostering electric vehicle (EV) usage and reducing environmental impact across the country.

The plan envisions adapting key stretches of the Golden Quadrilateral, a vital network connecting major cities, into EV-ready highways. These highways will be equipped with charging infrastructure to support the seamless travel of electric vehicles, encouraging the adoption of clean and green transportation solutions.

The development of electric vehicle-ready highways aligns with India's commitment to promoting EV usage and reducing dependence on traditional fossil fuel-powered vehicles. The Golden Quadrilateral, being a crucial part of the national highway network, is strategically chosen for this transformation, reflecting a comprehensive approach to sustainable mobility.

As India gears up for this significant infrastructure development, the initiative is poised to encourage the widespread adoption of electric vehicles, addressing both environmental concerns and promoting energy-efficient transportation. The move also positions the country at the forefront of the global shift towards sustainable and clean mobility solutions.
