Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Public Works Department is going to provide spur connectivity to union government’s high speed corridors that will pass through Madhya Pradesh.
The PWD officials said that spur connectivity to high speed corridor would help in developing the satellite townships near big cities. As travel time of vehicle will be cut down substantially, industrial and logistic sector will receive a boost.
A senior PWD official said that high speed corridor would change the entire scenario. State can connect its town with high speed corridor through spur connectivity.
The spur connectivity will also help in developing the satellite towns near big cities like Bhopal and Indore. As the travel time will come down substantially hence if a satellite town is developed even 50 kilometres away from Indore or Bhopal then it will only take about 40 minutes to reach the big city.
One high speed corridor will come up between Gwalior, Sagar, Bina and Delhi. Another will pass through Rewa, Prayagraj, Satna, Jabalpur and go up to Nagpur. Bhopal, Sagar, Kanpur is another high speed corridor.
According to PWD officials, the state can come up with its own model of high speed corridor to connect major areas not falling in line with national high speed corridor. For instance, Bhopal, Ujjain lack the high speed corridor network and same can be planned by the PWD on its own.
