Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, laid the foundation stone for three National Highway (NH) projects in Madhya Pradesh on 24 August. According to the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH), the projects are designed to reduce travel time, ease congestion, enhance road safety, and improve connectivity across key corridors.

The first project covers the four-laning of the 17.87 km Amazhar–Barela stretch, completing the Jabalpur Ring Road. The upgrade will divert heavy vehicles away from the city, reduce accident risks, and ensure smoother connectivity from Amarkantak to other NHs.

The second project involves the construction of seven underpasses along the Rewa–Maihar–Katni section of NH-30. Located at critical junctions such as Amarpatan–Satna Link Road, Maihar City Entry, and Sleemnabad, these underpasses will strengthen safety features with service roads and median barriers.

The third project includes six flyovers and underpasses on the Katni–Jabalpur–Lakhnadon section of NH-30/34. Key works include safety interventions at Barna Tiraha, Sihora Bypass Junction, Panagar Bypass, and realignment of the Ramanupr Valley to reduce accident-prone zones.

MoRTH stated that these initiatives, under the ‘Pragati Ka Highway’ programme, will provide safer, faster, and smoother travel for commuters and commercial traffic in Madhya Pradesh.
