Delhi/Dehradun: Taking an important step regarding road connectivity and traffic safety in Dehradun district of Uttarakhand, the Central Government has approved the project at a cost of Rs 720.67 crore for the improvement work of Dehradun-Lal Tappar-Nepali Farm section of National Highway-7 and Nepali Farm-Motichur section (total length 36.82 km) of National Highway-34.
Chief Minister Shri Pushkar Singh Dhami has expressed his gratitude to Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and Union Minister of Road Transport and Highways Shri Nitin Gadkari for this important approval. He said that this project will not only ensure fast and safe traffic between Dehradun-Haridwar-Rishikesh, but will also make the Chardham Yatra route more accessible and smooth.
The main objective of this project is to comprehensively improve road safety by providing grade separation at existing busy junctions and separating local traffic from the main road traffic. Under this, additional service roads will also be constructed, which will reduce accidents and reduce traffic pressure.
Shri Dhami said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi, infrastructure is developing rapidly in Uttarakhand and this project is another strong step towards the development of the state.
