9 National Highway projects in pipeline in Tripura

Tripura is gearing up for a massive infra upgradation, as Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways, Nitin Gadkari, laid the foundation stones of nine NH projects on Tuesday. Spanning across a distance of around 262 km in total and having an estimated cost of over Rs 2,752 crore, these projects will provide faster and hassle-free inter-state as well as international road connectivity to Bangladesh.
