Four laning of Lucknow-Sultanpur section of National Highway – 56 in Uttar Pradesh

The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs, chaired by the Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, has given its approval for development of the four laning of the Lucknow-Sultanpur section of National Highway – 56 in Uttar Pradesh. This work will be under the National Highways Development Project (NHDP) Phase-IV. The approval is in Build-Operate-Transfer (BOT) (Toll) mode on Design, Build, Finance, Operate and Transfer (BOT/DBFOT) basis. 

The cost is estimated to be Rs. 1325.09 crore including the cost of land acquisition, resettlement and rehabilitation and other pre-construction activities. The total length of the road will be approximately 126 kms. 

The project will expedite improvement of infrastructure in Uttar Pradesh. The development of this stretch will also help in uplifting the socio-economic condition of the concerned regions of the State and would also increase employment potential for local labourers for project activities. Implementation of this project will help in reducing the time and cost of travel for traffic, particularly heavy traffic, plying on the Lucknow-Sultanpur sector. The project is covered in the region of Lucknow and Sultanpur.
