The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) has expanded India’s National Highway (NH) network to approximately 1,46,195 km. Various schemes have been implemented for NH development, including the Bharatmala Pariyojana (subsuming the NHDP), the Special Accelerated Road Development Programme for the North-East Region (SARDP-NE), the Left Wing Extremism-affected Area Development Programme, and Externally Aided Projects (EAP).
For NH stretches not covered under these schemes, development is undertaken under the National Highway Original (NH(O)) works, based on factors like traffic density, road conditions, priority, and fund availability.
In the last five years, works for around 53,600 km of NHs have been awarded, including 2,085 km in Gujarat. Additionally, 56,700 km of NHs have been constructed nationwide, with 2,182 km completed in Gujarat.
