Trilateral Highway: Kolkata-Bangkok Link

The Trilateral Highway, a major infrastructure project, aims to establish a direct road link between Kolkata in India, Bangkok in Thailand, and Myanmar. This highway is designed to enhance connectivity across the region, boosting trade and economic integration among the three countries.

Stretching approximately 1,360 kilometers, the highway will traverse various terrains, including parts of India, Myanmar, and Thailand. It is expected to play a crucial role in facilitating smoother trade and travel between these nations, thereby fostering regional economic growth and cooperation.

The highway is part of a broader initiative to improve infrastructure connectivity in Southeast Asia and South Asia, supporting regional integration and economic development. By connecting key cities and regions, it aims to enhance logistics, reduce transportation costs, and promote cross-border trade.

In addition to economic benefits, the Trilateral Highway is anticipated to strengthen diplomatic and cultural ties between India, Myanmar, and Thailand. The project underscores the commitment of these countries to improving regional connectivity and collaborating on significant infrastructure developments.

As construction progresses, the Trilateral Highway will become a vital corridor for commerce and connectivity, contributing to the overall economic development and integration of the region.
