Meaningful effort, meaningful dialogue
Chief Minister Chouhan, after meeting Union Minister Gadkari, said that the 404-km-long Atal Pragati Path (Express-way) passing through Gwalior Chambal region will speed up the development of Madhya Pradesh. This path will prove to be important in the direction of overall development of Chambal and Gwalior region. There will be a positive change in the economy of all the cities, towns and small and big villages of the region. Chief Minister Chouhan said that the problems of land acquisition have been removed for this way. Successful efforts are being made in removing the obstacles.
Chief Minister Chouhan said that it is necessary to get the missing stretches of Ring Roads of 5 important cities of Bhopal, Indore, Jabalpur, Gwalior and Sagar completed soon through NHAI. He said that it would be easy to develop industrial hubs and logistics hubs from these ring roads. He informed that 75 percent ring road of Bhopal city is built. It is necessary to build a ring road from Mandideep to Indore road in the remaining 25 percent length. This proposed ring road will connect NH-64 (Bhopal-Obedullaganj) with State Highway number-28 (Bhopal-Dewas).
Similarly, half part of the ring road of Indore city is present in the east. The western side of the ring road is planned by the National Highways Authority of India. This proposed ring road will connect NH-52 (Agra-Mumbai).
Proposed Ring Road for Jabalpur City will connect National Highway No.-30 (Jabalpur-Rewa), SH No. 55 (Jabalpur-Damoh), NH-45 (Jabalpur-Bhopal), NH-30 (Jabalpur-Nagpur), NH-30 (Jabalpur-Mandla), NH-45 (Jabalpur-Amarkantak).
A 42 km bypass is constructed in Gwalior city
towards east/south. The remaining 28 km is the proposed ring road. The proposed ring road will start from NH-44 (Gwalior-Jhansi) and connect to NH-46 (Gwalior-Guna).
Similarly, in Sagar city, a 28 km long route has been proposed from Barkheri to Garhpahra by the National Highways Authority of India, whose tender is under process. Its construction will facilitate the Bina-Bhopal-Indore traffic. Construction of Ring Road is necessary for the ease of traffic going from Katni-Jabalpur to Bhopal-Bina. This ring road will connect NH-146 (Bhopal-Sagar) and NH-44 (Jabalpur- Lakhnadon) to NH-934 (Sagar-Kanpur). SH 21 (Sagar-Rehli) will connect South of Sagar and NH 146 (Bhopal-Sagar).
Narmada Expressway is horizontal industrial backbone of the state
Chief Minister Chouhan said that the proposed Narmada Expressway would prove to be the backbone of development of industrial and tourism activities in the state.
