Work is expected to begin after the 2025 monsoon, with the ring road designed to divert freight and inter-state traffic away from the city. The project will be developed in three phases—starting with a 55.54-km greenfield corridor from Baihata Chariali to Sonapur, followed by the widening of a 7.76-km NH-27 stretch, and capped by the upgrade of another 58 km of NH-27, along with a 3-km Brahmaputra bridge.

The project is expected to decongest Guwahati, reduce pollution, and enhance logistics efficiency across the Northeast. It also aligns with the Gati Shakti plan, aiming to boost multimodal transport and expand market access in the region.
