1. Introduction
1.1. Road network is vital to the economic development, trade and social
integration. It facilitates smooth conveyance of both people and goods. Size of the
road network, its quality and access has a bearing on transport costs. Besides, road
network promote specialization, extend markets and thereby enable exploitation of
the economies of scale. Global competition has made the existence of efficient
road transport and logistic systems in delivery chain an absolute imperative. Easy
accessibility, flexibility of operations, door-to-door service and reliability have earned
road transport an increasingly higher share of both passenger and freight traffic vis-
à-vis other transport modes. Transport demand in India has been growing rapidly. In
recent years this demand has shifted mainly to the advantage of road transport,
which carries about 87 percent and 61 per cent of passenger and freight transport
demand arising for land based modes of transport (i.e. roadways and railways taken
together) respectively. Road transport has grown despite significant barriers to inter-
State freight and passenger movement compared to inland waterways, railways
and air which do not face rigorous enroute checks/barriers. Given the importance of
road network, it is vital to have comprehensive data on road infrastructure to assist in
policy planning and investment decisions.
2. Growth in Road Length
2.1 The total road length in India had increased significantly from 3.99 lakh km as
on 31.3.1951 to 42.36 lakh km as on 31.3.2008. Concomitantly, the surfaced road
had increased from 1.57 lakh km to around 20.90 lakh km over the same period. The
increase in road length during 1950-51 through 2007-08 is depicted in Chart I.
i
The share of the surfaced road length in the total road length also reflected an
improvement. Surfaced road length accounted for 49.3 % of total road length as of
31.3.2008, compared with 39.3% of the total road length as of 31.3.1951.
2.2 The total road length had expanded significantly since 1970s. It increased from
9.15 lakh km in March 1971 to 42.36 lakh km in March 2008 - an increase of 363 %
over these 37 years yielding a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.2 %. The
total road network in the country grew from 36.21 lakh in March 2004 to 42. 36 lakh
in March 2008 reflecting an increase of 6.15 lakh km yielding a CAGR of 4 % over this
period. Table: 1 gives snap shot of progress in expansion of road length under
different categories during the period 1971-2008.

3. Category wise Growth in Roads
3.1 As seen from the Table 1, the total surfaced road length grew from 3, 97,948
km (accounting for 43.5% of the total road length) in 1971 to 20,90,282 km (
accounting for 49.3 % of the total road length) in 2008 reflecting a more than five
fold increase in surfaced road length. Category wise classification of road length
showed that during this period, the length of National Highways (NHs) increased
from 23,838 km to 66,754 km – an increase of over 180 % or CAGR of 2.8 %. During
the same period, the length of State Highways (SHs) increased from 56,765 km to
1,54,522 km (an increase of over 172 % or CAGR of 2.7 % )and the length of Other
PWD roads increased from 2,76,833 km in 1971 to 8,63,241 km in 2008 (an increase of
about 212 % or CAGR of 3.1 %). Various categories of Urban roads together
expanded in length from 72,120 km to 3,04,327 km reflecting an increase of over 322
% or CAGR of 3.97 %. The highest growth over these 37 years took place in respect of
Rural Roads which increased from 3,54,530 km to 25,77,396 km (including 10,61,809
lakh km roads constructed under JRY & PMGSY )registering an increase of nearly 627
% and a CAGR of 5.5 %. The lowest growth, however, took place in the length of
Project roads which increased from 1,30,893 km in March 1971 to 2,70,189 km by
March 2008 resulting in a growth of 106 % and a CAGR of 1.98 % only. The graphical
representation of the growth trend of road length by category of roads between
1950-51 and 2007-08 is depicted in Chart II.
Note: Road Length of State Highways for the years 1950-51 and 1960-61 are included in
Other PWD Roads.

# As on 31.3.2010, the total road length under National Highways is 70,934 km.
4.2 It is noteworthy that the ‘National Highways’ registered an increase of 14,744

km (from 52,010 km in 2000 to 66,754 km in March 2008) over a period of 8 years
2000-08. However, the largest increase of 6,29,353 km was in case of ‘Rural Roads’
followed by an increase of 1,32,561 km in ‘Other PWD Roads’ and 1,12,281 km in the
case of ‘Other Roads’. The increase in road network under ‘State Highways’ was to
the tune of 21,725 km during the same period. Category-wise road length in India as
of 31.3.2008 is given in Chart – III.
v
5. Expansion in Road network in terms of Broad Categories
5.1 The data compiled on road network can be broadly classified into five broad
categories: (1) National Highways (NHs) (2) State Highways (SHs) (3) Other PWD
Roads (4) Rural Roads and (5) Project Roads. The National Highways, running across
the length and breadth of the country, had a length of 66,754 km at the end of
March 2008. National Highways comprise less than 2 per cent of the road network,
but carry a high volume of the road-based traffic. State Highways (SHs) and Major
District Roads (MDRs) constitute the secondary system of road transportation in the
country. The State Highways connect National Highways, district headquarters,
important towns, tourist locations and minor ports. The total length of State Highways
is about 1,54,522 km. The remaining predominantly large segment of the total road
network of about 4.24 million km is covered by the Other PWD Roads, Rural Roads
and Project and Urban Roads. About 61 % of the total road length in India is
accounted for by rural roads consisting of (i) Panchayat Raj Roads (about 36 %) i.e.
Zilla Parishad roads, Village Panchayat Roads and Panchayat Samiti roads; and (ii)
roads constructed under Jawahar Rojgar Yojna(JRY) and Pradhan Mantra Gram
Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) accounting for a 25 % share in rural roads. Roads
constructed under the JRY (about 21 %) are of limited value from the point of view of
vi
movement of heavy traffic as only about 20 % of such roads are surfaced. The
decadal figures of the road network under all these categories are provided in the
Table –3. As would be seen from the table, the aggregate length of roads, which
was 0.4 million km in 1950-51, had increased more than 10 fold to 4.24 million km by
2007-08.

6. National Highways
6.1 National Highways are the arterial roads of the country for inter-state and
movements of passengers and goods. They traverse the length and width of the
country connecting the National and State capitals, major ports and rail junctions
and link up with border roads and foreign highways.
6.2 Details of the National Highways (State-wise) are presented in Section 2 of the
Statistical Tables Section (Table 2.1). During the period 2000 to 2008, National
Highways expanded by over 28 %. Out of the total length (66,754 km) of National
Highways as on 31.3.2008, 27 per cent is of single lane/intermediate lane, 58 per cent
is 2-lane standard and the balance of 15 per cent is 4-lane standard or more.
6.3 NHAI was set up under an act of Parliament, “The National Highways Authority
of India Act, 1998”. It became operational in February 1995. NHAI is mandated to:
(a) develop, maintain and manage National Highways entrusted to it; (b) collect
fees on National Highways and; (c) facilitate private sector participation. In order to
expand and improve road connectivity in the country, the Government has
launched National Highways Development Project (NHDP). It is the largest highway
vii
project ever undertaken in the country. The NHDP is being implemented by National
Highways Authority of India (NHAI). Government has envisaged huge investment for
construction and upgradation of National Highways under various phases of NHDP
over the medium term. Details of various phases of NHDP are as under:
NHDP Phase-I: This phase was approved in December 2000. It envisaged -
(a) Four laning of National Highways comprising Golden Quadrilateral (GQ)
linking major metros, viz. Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai & Kolkata having an
aggregate length of 5846 km; (b) North-South and East-West corridors
covering 981 km; (c) Port connectivity by upgrading 356 km of NHs linking
major ports in the country and; (d) upgradation of 315 km of other National
Highways. The total aggregate length of NHs for upgradation envisaged
under Phase I was placed at 7498 km. The total length completed upto 31st
March 2010 was 7328 km.
NHDP Phase-II: This phase was approved in December 2003. The main thrust
of this phase involved upgradation (4 laning) of (a) North-South (Srinagar to
Kanyakumari) & East-West (Silchar to Porbandar) corridors covering a
distance of 6161 km and; (b) upgradation of 486 km stretch of other National
Highways. The total length coverage for upgradation under Phase – II
involved 6647 km out of which 4465 km has been completed by 31st March
2010.
NHDP Phase-III: NHDP Phase-III involves 4-laning of 12,109 km of high-density

stretches of NHs connecting State capitals, important tourist places and
places of economic importance through Public Private Partnership (PPP)
basis. Out of this, implementation of 4815 km on BOT was approved under
NHDP Phase IIIA. NHDP Phase IIIB involving implementation of the balance
7294 km was approved in April 2007. Till 31st March 2010, 1581 km of road
length had been completed.
NHDP Phase-IV: This phase involved improvement of 20,000 km of NHs to two

lanes with paved shoulders.
NHDP Phase-V: This phase was approved for six laning of 6,500 km of existing
4 lane highways in October 2006 on Design Build Finance and Operation
(DBFO) basis. This included 5,700 km of GQ and 800 km of other selected
stretches.
viii
NHDP Phase-VI: This phase, approved in November 2006, envisaged
development of 1000 km of access controlled four/six lane divided
carriageway expressways on DBFO basis.
NHDP Phase-VII: This phase was approved in December 2007 for construction
of stand alone ring roads, by-passes (including improvements of NH links in
city), Grade Separated Intersections, flyovers, elevated highways, Road Over
Bridges (ROBs), underpasses and service roads on BOT Toll basis.

Box III: Special Programmes/ Packages of the Government of
India in the Road Sector
1. Accelerated Road Development Programme in the North East (SARDP-NE)

The Special Accelerated Road Development Programme for North Eastern
region (SARDP-NE) aims at improving the road connectivity to state capitals, district
headquarters and remote places of NE region. It envisages two/four laning of about
9,940 km length of roads (5,184 km of NHs and 4,756 km of State roads). This would
provide connectivity to 85 district headquarters in the North-Eastern States, to NHs/
State Roads. This programme has been divided into the following two phases: (i)
SARDP-NE Phase A includes improvement of 2,796 km of roads (2,039 km of NHs and
757 km of State roads); (ii) SARDP-NE Phase B involves 2 laning of 4,825 km of NHs
and 2-laning/improvements of State roads.
2. The Arunachal Pradesh Package

The Arunachal Pradesh Package for Road and Highways covers 2,319 km
road length of which 1,472 km is NHs and 847 km is State/General Staff/Strategic
roads. Out of the total length of 2,319 km, 776 km are proposed to be implemented
on BOT (Annuity) basis directly by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways and the
remaining 1,543 km on DPC mode through the State PWDs of Arunachal Pradesh
and Assam and the Border Roads Organisation (BRO).
3. Special Programme for Development of Roads in Left Wing Extremism (LWE)

Affected Areas
The Government, in February 2009, approved a proposal for development of
1,202 km of National Highways and 4,362 km of State Roads in Left Wing Extremism
affected areas as a special project. It would cover 33 districts in 8 States, namely,
Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra,
Orissa and Uttar Pradesh.
xiv
7. State Highways
7.1 The total length of State Highways in the country increased from 1,33,177 km
as of 31.3.2004 to 1,54,522 km as of 31.3.2008 (an increase of 16 %). Length of
surfaced roads under State Highways category also increased over 16 % between
2004 and 2008, from 1,31,262 km to 1,52,738 km. In terms of absolute lengths,
Maharashtra reported the highest kilometres of State Highways (33,675 km), followed
by Karnataka (20,738) and Gujarat (18,447 km) (Table 3.1).
7.2 Out of the total surfaced length of State Highways at the end of March 2008,
1,51,159 km were of Bituminous Top (BT) or Cement Concrete (CC) i.e. nearly 99 % of
total surfaced State Highways; 1,579 km of State Highways were of Water Bound
Macadam (WBM), which accounted for a little over 1 %. Out of the total length of
1,54,522 km of State Highways, only 1,784 km were unsurfaced. Even here, more
than 84% of such unsurfaced lengths (1,499 km) were reported to be motorable

nearly 94 % (86,424 km) were surfaced (Table 4.1).
xv
9. Zilla Parishad Roads
9.1 About 5,08,608 km of Zilla Parishad Roads were reported as on 31st March 2008
with around 55 % (2,78,962 km) of these roads having been surfaced. The road
length under Zilla Parishads increased from 4,69,944 km in 2005 to 5,08,608 km (an
increase of 8.2 %). Over the same period, surfaced roads under the Zilla Parishads
increased by about 5.9 % from 2,63,311 km to 2,78,962 km. Amongst the States,

10.1 The road length under this category were 6,70,107 km as on 31st March 2008;
during the period 2005- 2008 the road length increased by about 7.8 %. The
surfaced road length under village panchayats increased by over 13 % from 1,19,580
km km in 2005 to 1,35,331 km by the end of 2008. However, only about 20 % of the
total road length under village panchayats was surfaced by the end of 2008. States
with large networks of village panchayat roads include – Kerala (1,53,797 km), Orissa
(1,39,942 km) and West Bengal (1,10,692 km) (Table 6.1).
11. Panchayat Samiti Roads
11.1 Roads under Panchayat Samiti were reported at 3,36,872 km as on 31st March
2008. More than 31 % of this road length was surfaced. Though Assam reported the
largest share of Panchayat Samiti roads (64,494 km) only 6.5% was surfaced.
Rajasthan had the second largest share with a length of 44,287 km, of which only 18
% was surfaced. Tamil Nadu, on the other hand, had 32,053 km of total road length,
of which 82 % was surfaced (Table 7.1).
12. Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY)
12.1 The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) was launched in December,
2000 with the objective of providing connectivity, through all-weather roads to
xvi
unconnected habitations in rural areas. The surface of such roads varies from
Unsealed Surface (Gravel Road) to Bituminous Surface with Pre Mixed Carpet (PMC)
and seal coat. The road length completed under the scheme increased from 3,996
km for the year ending 31st March 2001 to 51,511 km by the end of March 2004 and
further to 1,61,809 km as on 31.3.2008. The increase between 2004 and 2008 was to
the tune of 1,10,298 km or an increase of over 214 %. By the end of March 2008,
Rajasthan had completed the maximum road length under PMGSY at 30,447 km
followed by Uttar Pradesh (19,733 km) and Madhya Pradesh (19,063 km) (Table 11.3).
13. Urban Roads
13.1 The total length of urban roads in the country as on 31st March 2004 was
3,01,310 km which increased to 3,04,327 km by March 2008 indicating a growth of
about 1 %. Within Urban Roads, roads constructed by Municipalities (2,77,264 km)
accounted for over 91 % of the urban roads. Of the roads under Municipalities
nearly 68 % were surfaced. The second largest share among various categories of
Urban Roads was of MES roads (14,143 km), followed by Railway Roads (11,749 km),
Major Port Roads (792 km) and Minor Port Roads (379 km) (refer Section 8).
14. Project Roads
14.1 The total length of Project Roads increased from 2,61,625 km in March 2004 to
2,70,189 km in March 2008 reflecting a growth of 3.3 %. Surfaced roads formed only
27.5 % of total road length under this category in 2008. Forest Department Roads
accounted for the highest share (57 %) of total Project Roads in March 2008,
followed by Irrigation Department roads (about 30 %) and roads under Sugarcane
Authorities (9.6 %) (refer Section 9).
15. Expansion of Road Network vis-à-vis growth in Motor Vehicles
15.1 The growth of road network has not kept pace with the growth in number of
registered vehicles as reflected in Table 5. The growth of vehicular traffic on roads
has been far greater than the growth of the highways; as a result the main arteries
face capacity saturation. Between 1951 and 2006 the vehicle population grew at a
xvii
compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of close to 11 per cent compared to CAGR
of 4.2 per cent in the total road length with National Highway segment increasing by
a mere 2.2 percent over the period 1951 and 2008. A noteworthy aspect has been
a step-up in the growth of national highway network in recent years which has
grown at CAGR of 4.1 per cent between 1991 and 2008 while total vehicle
population grew at a CAGR of 10 per cent 1991-2006 (Table-5). Highway capacity
shortages are aggravated by heterogeneity in traffic, encroachment, and frequent
and long halts at check posts.

16. International Comparison of Road Network

16.1 The geographic coverage of India’s highway network at 1.29 km of road
length per square km of land is denser than USA (0.68 km/sq km), and much higher
than that of China (0.36 km/sq. km) and Brazil (0.20 km/ sq. km) (Table 6). In India,
expressways are nearly non-existent while China’s highway network consists of over
45,339 km of four or six lane access controlled expressway linking the major cities.
Besides, the proportion of paved road length in India is just below 50 % and is much
lower compared to Japan, Malaysia, and Republic of Korea.

→ Decline in total & surfaced road lengths in urban roads between 2004 and 2005 is
due to lower figures in respect of Municipal road lengths reported by Karnataka and
Uttar Pradesh. Karnataka Government had informed that latest figures excluded road
lengths under Bangalore Municipal Corporation. In respect of Uttar Pradesh, figures
quoted for 2004 are from BRS 2004 and pertained to 1997 only where as subsequent
reports of Uttar Pradesh quoted much lower figures.
