Gujarat’s state roads and housing minister Purnesh Modi said travelling would be simpler as Prime Minister Narendra Modi has approved the construction on 34 national highways at a cost of Rs 3,760.64 crore.
The minister went on to declare that in order for the state to become a railway crossing-free state, ROBs/RUBs above railroad crossings would also be built. At a cost of Rs 350 crore, a 12.8 kilometre road from Narol Junction to Ujala Junction would be constructed.
This will result in the six-lane road from Narol Junction to Vishala Junction being expanded to eight lanes and the bridge over the Sabarmati River being converted to six lanes.
Further, the 5.28 km four-lane road between Vishala Junction and Ujala Junction will now be made six-lane and elevated corridor type facility will be made available.
