<h1>Road connectivity projects under PM GatiShakti to enhance multimodal interstate transport and accelerate coordinated implementation.</h1> Three road connectivity projects were recommended by the Network Planning Group under the PM GatiShakti framework: a greenfield four lane highway from Gazipur to the Ballia-state border to link major economic centres and shorten routes to Delhi; upgradation of two lane roads to four lanes in Uttar Pradesh including a Palia-Shahjahanpur-Hardoi-Lucknow bypass to improve freight movement and Indo Nepal border connectivity; and four lane brownfield bypasses at Moradabad and Kashipur to decongest corridors, enhance interstate connectivity and support regional trade routes. Members called for integrated planning and synchronized implementation to expedite clearances and project delivery.
