India's infrastructural landscape achieved a significant milestone as Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, provided insights into the eagerly awaited Panipat to Delhi Airport Terminal 3 tunnel. This remarkable tunnel, stretching across an impressive 3.6 kilometers, now stands as the longest shallow tunnel in India.

What sets this engineering marvel apart is its innovative design, marking several firsts within the country. Minister Gadkari revealed that this tunnel boasts a unique feature—a sprawling eight-lane road that runs both above and below the tunnel, enhancing its efficiency manifold. To further optimize traffic flow and accessibility, the tunnel is complemented by dual four-lane service roads encircling it, resulting in a staggering total of 20 lanes.
