How will expressways be built and operated by the government? Give three reasons.
Answers
Answer:
government should built the expressway away from population to avoid noise and its affects on humans.
Explanation:
Expressways are the highest class of roads in India. In India, expressways are controlled-access highways where entrance and exits are controlled by the use of ramps that are incorporated into the design of the expressway, whereas National highways are at-grade roads. Some roads are not access-controlled expressway, but are still officially called expressways, such as the Biju Expressway.
Delhi–Noida Direct (DND Flyway). It is India's first 8-lane wide expressway.
Mumbai–Pune Expressway. It is India's first 6-lane wide expressway.
Agra–Lucknow Expressway, the longest expressway in India
Greenfield Expressways in India are designed as 12-lane wide Expressways with the initial construction of 8-lanes. Land for 4-lane future expansion is reserved in the center of the expressways. Greenfield Expressways are designed to avoid inhabited areas and go through new alignments to bring development to new areas and to reduce land acquisition costs and construction timelines. The Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is a great example of a new 12-lane approach with initial 8-lane construction.
The majority of the investment required for constructing expressways comes from the Central Government. Uttar Pradesh and Maharashtra are the only states which are investing in building expressways through dedicated expressway corporations.[1]
The National Expressways Authority of India (NEAI) operating under the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways will be in-charge of the construction and maintenance of expressways.[2] The National Highways Development Project by the Government of India aims to expand the country's current expressway network and plans to add an additional 18,637 km of greenfield expressways by 2022 apart from existing national highways.[3]
Bharatmala, a centrally-sponsored and funded road and highways project of the Government of India[4] with a target of constructing 83,677 km[5] of new highways over the next five years, was started in 2018.[6] Phase I of the Bharatmala project involves the construction of 34,800 km of highways (including the remaining projects under NHDP) at an estimated cost of ₹5.35 lakh crore by 2021–22.[7]
