Built at a cost of Rs 360 crore, the road has played a crucial role in reducing traffic congestion. It has also become a crucial factor in reducing the travel distance from BHU towards airport from 75 minutes to 45 minutes.
Moreover, this vital passage has reduced the distance from Lahartara to Kachahri from 30 minutes to 15 minutes. This significant project witnessed inter-ministerial coordination in order to enhance ease of living for citizens of Varanasi.
Meanwhile, PM Modi took to microblogging platform X to share the news. “Upon landing in Kashi, inspected the Shivpur-Phulwaria-Lahartara Marg. This project was inaugurated recently and has been greatly helpful to people in the southern part of the city,” the Prime Minister’s post read.
