Bengaluru-Hyderabad Highway to Get 12-Lane Upgrade

The Bengaluru-Hyderabad highway, NH-44, is set to undergo a major expansion, transforming it into a 12-lane expressway. This upgrade aims to significantly enhance connectivity between the two major cities, reducing travel time and easing traffic congestion.

The project, undertaken by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), is expected to bolster economic activities by providing a faster and more efficient transportation route. The expansion will facilitate smoother movement of goods and people, benefiting various sectors including logistics, trade, and tourism.

The current six-lane highway will be doubled in capacity, featuring dedicated lanes for both heavy and light vehicles to ensure safer and more streamlined traffic flow. The new design will also include modern amenities such as service roads, pedestrian pathways, and improved signage to enhance overall user experience.

Officials have highlighted that this expansion is crucial to meet the growing transportation demands between Bengaluru and Hyderabad. The highway is a vital link in the region's infrastructure network, connecting numerous towns and industrial hubs along its route. The upgrade is expected to alleviate bottlenecks and support the region's economic growth by providing a robust transportation backbone.

Environmental considerations are being incorporated into the project, with plans for extensive tree plantation and measures to minimise ecological impact. The project also includes the construction of flyovers, underpasses, and interchanges to enhance connectivity and reduce traffic snarls at key junctions.

The 12-lane expressway upgrade of NH-44 marks a significant step forward in India's infrastructure development, promising improved connectivity, economic growth, and enhanced travel experiences for commuters and businesses alike.
