NHAI to review proposal for underpasses at key black spots in Ludhiana

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is set to evaluate a proposal to construct underpasses at five major black spots in Ludhiana. This initiative aims to address traffic congestion and enhance road safety in the city.

The proposal comes in response to numerous accidents and traffic jams at these critical intersections. The five identified locations are known for high vehicular movement and frequent mishaps, prompting local authorities and residents to push for significant infrastructure improvements.

The NHAI?s plan includes a detailed assessment of the potential benefits and challenges associated with each proposed underpass. The project is expected to undergo a comprehensive review process before any final decisions are made. The goal is to mitigate traffic issues and reduce the likelihood of accidents, improving overall road conditions in Ludhiana.

The local administration has expressed strong support for the proposal, emphasizing its potential to make commuting safer and more efficient for residents. Public consultations and feedback will also be sought to ensure that the project addresses the needs and concerns of the community effectively.
