PM Modi Conducts Late-Night Inspection of Key Varanasi Road for Infrastructure Assessment

Upon arriving in Varanasi following a demanding day in Gujarat, PM Modi undertook a late-night inspection of the recently inaugurated Shivpur-Phulwaria-Lahartara road around 11 pm.

360 Crore Road in Varanasi

The newly constructed road, built for Rs 360 crore, holds significant importance for approximately 5 lakh residents in the southern part, including those around BHU (Banaras Hindu University), BLW (Banaras Locomotive Works), etc. This infrastructural development facilitates smoother connectivity for people heading towards the airport, Lucknow, Azamgarh, and Ghazipur.

Not only does the road contribute to reducing traffic congestion, but it also brings about a substantial decrease in travel time. The journey from BHU to the airport, which used to take 75 minutes, is now trimmed down to 45 minutes. Similarly, the commute from Lahartara to Kachahri has been reduced from 30 minutes to a mere 15 minutes.

This successful project exemplifies effective inter-ministerial coordination, involving contributions from Railways and Defence. The collaborative efforts aim to enhance the overall quality of life for the citizens of Varanasi, marking a significant step towards improved ease of living.
