Ludhiana's Ladhowal Bypass to Get Rs.180 Mn Bicycle Track

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has greenlit a significant infrastructure development for Ludhiana's Ladhowal Bypass?a new ?180 million bicycle track. This initiative aims to bolster Ludhiana's cycling infrastructure, promoting sustainable and eco-friendly modes of transportation.

The proposed bicycle track will span the entirety of the Ladhowal Bypass, providing cyclists with a safe and dedicated lane separate from vehicular traffic. This move is expected to not only encourage more people to opt for cycling but also enhance road safety for cyclists and motorists alike.

Ludhiana, a bustling industrial hub in Punjab, has been grappling with traffic congestion and pollution issues. The introduction of the bicycle track aligns with broader efforts to reduce vehicular emissions and promote healthier commuting options.

NHAI's approval underscores a proactive approach towards integrating cycling infrastructure into urban road projects, aiming to create more inclusive and sustainable transportation networks. The project is expected to commence soon, with plans to complete the bicycle track within a stipulated timeframe.

Local authorities and urban planners have welcomed the decision, highlighting the potential benefits for both residents and the environment. By investing in cycling infrastructure, Ludhiana aims to set a precedent for other cities grappling with urban mobility challenges, promoting a greener and more livable urban environment.
