Six-lane highway to start from the Rajasthan-Gujarat border to Santalpur
In a series of tweets, Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has informed that the project for 6 lane access controlled Greenfield Highway from Rajasthan/Gujarat Border to Santalpur section of NH-754A is in full progress. The Minister said this stretch is the part of Amritsar-Jamnagar Economic Corridor in Gujarat under Bharatmala Pariyojana Phase-1 and is being built at a project cost of Rs 20.30 billion.
Once the project is completed, the travel time within this section will reduce by 2 hours and the travel distance by 60 km. Gadkari said reducing pollution levels, and median and avenue plantations throughout the stretch would enrich the ecosystem and boost SDGs. The stretch would facilitate easy movement of border forces, armed forces, and military vehicles as it is closer to Indo-Pak Border, he added.
