Govt aims to accelerate pace of highways construction to 60 km/day: Nitin Gadkari
New Delhi, Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari on Wednesday said the government’s aim is to accelerate the pace of highway construction to 60 km a day.
Speaking at Times Network’s India Economic Conclave 2025, Gadkari said that highway construction in the country has slowed down as no fresh projects are now taken up under the Centre’s flagship Bharatmala Pariyojana.
“Our target is to accelerate the pace of highway construction in the country to 60 km per day,” he said.
