18 Apr 2023 CW Team

Background-

The rapid pace of National Highway development in Rajasthan has ensured seamless connectivity to Gujarat and Uttar Pradesh. Rajasthan is connected by many national highways, the most renowned being NH 8, which is India's first 4–8 lane highway. There are 48 National Highways in Rajasthan with a total length of 10,599.67 km (31- 03-2019) and 170 State Highways with a total length of 15517.5 km, 6, 715 km of MDRs, 29, 682 km of other district roads, and 1, 54, 652 km of village/rural roads. Road Density per lac population in Rajasthan is 313 km corresponding to the national figure of 436 km. Further, nearly 80% of the roads are single lanes. Years of under-investment due to paucity of financial resources and inadequate maintenance have left many of y of the state highways and MDRs in poor condition both in terms of riding quality and network. To improve the transport efficiency of the state road network, RSRDC has come up with several road projects.
