Land Acquisition Advances for New Expressway Linking Agra-Lucknow and Purvanchal Routes
A planned 51-kilometre link expressway will connect the Agra-Lucknow Expressway with the Purvanchal Expressway, enabling vehicles from Delhi and western Uttar Pradesh to bypass Lucknow city. This project aims to reduce congestion and shorten travel times to eastern Uttar Pradesh and Bihar. Land acquisition has progressed after around 3,000 farmers in Lucknow and Unnao districts consented to provide land, with officials working to finalize remaining agreements and compensation details.
