A new era of speed has started in Uttar Pradesh. This state is now being recognized not only for its culture and history but also for its world class roads. A huge network of expressways has been laid to connect remote parts of the state with the capital Lucknow and Delhi. These high-speed corridors have not only reduced travel time by 60% but also opened new doors for trade, tourism and industrial development. Let us know about those 5 big expressways that are changing the face of Uttar Pradesh.

1. Ganga Expressway (594 km)

Ganga Expressway is the most ambitious project of Uttar Pradesh. This 594 km long corridor will directly connect Meerut to Prayagraj. This 6-lane expressway will be the longest expressway in the state. With its completion, the distance between western and eastern Uttar Pradesh will be reduced to just a few hours.

2. Purvanchal Expressway (341 km)

Purvanchal Expressway connects Lucknow to Ghazipur. This expressway has changed the fortunes of eastern Uttar Pradesh. Now the farmers, traders and small industrialists here are able to deliver their products to big markets like Delhi and Lucknow in a very short time.

3. Agra-Lucknow Expressway (302 km)

This expressway connects the two most major cities of the state, Agra and Lucknow. Because of this, tourism has got a huge boost. Tourists coming to Agra from Delhi can now easily travel to Lucknow. This expressway has also proved to be the backbone from the business point of view.

4. Bundelkhand Expressway (296 km)

Starting from near Chitrakoot, this expressway connects to the Agra-Lucknow Expressway. It has directly connected the less developed region like Bundelkhand to Delhi-NCR. This is increasing investment for the Defense Corridor and other industries in this region.

5. Yamuna Expressway (165 km)

Yamuna Expressway connecting Greater Noida to Agra was the first state-of-the-art expressway in Uttar Pradesh. It laid the foundation of the industrial revolution in western UP and today it has become a major route for trade and tourism.
