Gadkari's Vision: Sustainable Infrastructure Revolution on National Highways

Union Minister Nitin Gadkari revealed a groundbreaking initiative for national highways, aiming to enhance transparency and accountability. Commuters will soon access contractor and officer details through QR-coded signboards, as part of a nationwide move to improve highway project management.

Speaking at a CII conference, Gadkari outlined a comprehensive plan addressing the utilization of legacy waste. The plan features sustainable practices, including the use of 80 lakh tonnes of segregated plastic waste in road construction and recycling treated water for road-building purposes.

Gadkari also emphasized the importance of economic, ecological, and environmental considerations in infrastructure development. Highlighting pollution concerns and the need for eco-friendly initiatives, he stressed the significance of creating world-class infrastructure to boost prosperity while preserving the environment.
