BETTER CONNECTIVITY TO MAJOR PORTS

According to NHAI, the newly opened stretch creates a direct link between industrial hubs in northern India and Kandla Port and Mundra Port in Gujarat.

The improved connectivity is expected to make cargo movement faster and more efficient, benefiting industries that rely on road transport for moving goods to and from the ports.

FASTER FREIGHT MOVEMENT

One of the biggest advantages of the new highway section is the reduction in freight transit time.
