Jharkhand’s Green Corridor
The Jharkhand government has unveiled ambitious plans for a new expressway, known as the Green Corridor, aimed at enhancing connectivity between Ranchi and several districts, including Sahibganj. This four-lane road, spanning approximately 325 km, is expected to bring about significant improvements in travel time and logistics costs.
Route Overview
The proposed expressway will follow an entirely new alignment, connecting Ranchi to Sahibganj via key districts such as Ramgarh, Hazaribagh, Koderma, Giridih, Deoghar, Dumka, Godda, and Pakur.
Faster and Direct Travel
The primary objective behind the development of this four-lane expressway is to streamline and expedite travel between districts. By offering a quicker and more direct route, the project aims to substantially reduce both distances and travel times.
Project Proposal and Approval
The proposal for this ambitious infrastructural project has been crafted by the NH sub-division and currently awaits approval from the Government of India. Once the approval is granted, the groundwork for the construction of the expressway will commence.
Potential Benefits
