The Humsafar policy is designed to support the growing needs of India's expanding road infrastructure, offering critical services to both commercial and private vehicles. It includes provisions for creating multi-utility spaces at regular intervals to cater to the diverse needs of travelers. These spaces will feature fuel stations, electric vehicle (EV) charging points, convenience stores, and other roadside services that are expected to reduce driver fatigue and improve overall road safety.

By addressing the need for well-maintained and strategically located rest areas, the Humsafar policy is seen as a significant step forward in modernizing India's national highway system. The initiative also aims to promote sustainability by incorporating green technologies, such as solar-powered facilities and EV infrastructure, contributing to India's environmental goals.

The policy reflects the government’s broader commitment to upgrading national highways and fostering a more user-friendly travel experience. Gadkari emphasized that such improvements are essential as India’s road network continues to expand, enhancing not only road safety but also contributing to economic growth by ensuring smoother and more efficient transportation routes.
