Bhopal‑Kanpur Economic Corridor Gets 117.7 km Greenfield Road Plan

The economic corridor between Bhopal and Kanpur now includes a 117.7 km greenfield road segment that will run from Kanpur to Kabrai. The corridor is part of a broader national effort to boost connectivity among sixteen economic nodes such as Unnao, Bithur, Panki, Runia, Jainpur, Ruma, Chakeeri, Sumerpur, and Bhooragadh. It also supports nine social nodes including Fatehpur, Mahoba, Kanpur Zoological Park, Buddha Park, JK Temple and others.

In line with the PM Gati Shakti National Master Plan, the project will link logistics hubs, industrial estates, and integrated townships, fostering a more resilient supply chain and accelerating regional economic development.
