The Government and the World Bank have signed an agreement for the construction of a 781-km Green National Highways Corridor Project (GNHCP) in the states of Himachal Pradesh, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh https://www.conexpoconagg.com/.

This update was given by Minister of Road Transport & Highways Nitin Gadkari in a written reply in Lok Sabha on 19 Dec 2024.

He added that the US$1,288 million project is supported with a US$500 million loan assistance from the bank https://www.globaltenders.com/.

The objective of the GNHCP is to demonstrate safe and green highway keeping in view climate resilience and use of green technologies by incorporating the provisions of conservation of natural resources using cement treated sub base and reclaimed asphalt pavement, use of local and marginal material such as lime, fly ash, waste plastic, bio- engineering measures for slope protection such as hydroseeding, coco/jute fibre etc., to bring green technologies into the mainstream https://ted.europa.eu/en/.

The guidelines of Indian Roads Congress on Green Highways (Plantation, Transplantation, Beautification & Maintenance) Policy, 2015 stipulates planting the plants/trees on National Highways as per the availability of space in Right of Way https://www.nseindia.com/.

He further informed that the Government has published a study ‘An assessment of avoided CO2 emissions during construction, maintenance and operation of National Highways’ in 2023 based on the data from 20 National Highway (NH) stretches extending to a length of 2,191.5 km, to estimate the potential CO2 that can be avoided by the NH https://sbi.com.in/.
