Shaktipeeth Expressway to Slash Travel Time Between Nagpur and Goa
Imagine a brand new, super-fast road being built between two places, Nagpur and Goa!
This road, called the Shaktipeeth Expressway, is like a giant shortcut.
It's named after special religious places called Shakti Peethas that it connects.
The new road will be much shorter, so the car ride will be way faster – saving almost half a day of travel time.
The expressway will also pass through several towns, helping them grow and making it easier to move things around.
This project will make traveling and transport easier and more efficient for everyone!
The Nagpur-Goa Shaktipeeth Expressway will cut travel time by 13 hours.
The expressway spans 802 kilometers, reducing the distance between Nagpur and Goa.
It is a six-lane greenfield project costing approximately Rs 86,000 crore.
The expressway connects three Shakti Peethas in Maharashtra.
