Ganga Expressway Adopts AI for Real-Time Road Quality Checks

The Yogi Adityanath government has partnered with ETH Zurich and RTDT Laboratories AG to deploy artificial intelligence and sensor-based technology on the Ganga Expressway. This system enables real-time monitoring of construction quality, enhancing both safety and ride comfort.

Spanning five hundred and ninety-four kilometres across twelve districts from Meerut to Prayagraj, the Ganga Expressway will be India’s longest. A specially designed Innova vehicle fitted with seven accelerometers now scans all six lanes for surface uniformity and elevation consistency.

Unlike traditional methods conducted post-completion, the AI-powered approach identifies defects during construction, reducing long-term maintenance costs. Real-time data from the vehicle’s sensors help engineers detect uneven sections and correct them immediately.

The collaboration underscores Uttar Pradesh’s commitment to using global standards for infrastructure. The technology measures road elevation and riding comfort with high precision and is now also being deployed on the ninety-one kilometre Gorakhpur Link Expressway.

The move aligns with the state’s broader goal of becoming an “Expressway State” through smart, durable infrastructure. By incorporating Swiss innovation, the expressway initiative sets new benchmarks for road performance and longevity in India.
