Cabinet Approves Rs. 8,307 Crore 6-Lane Capital Region Ring Road in Odisha to Ease Traffic, Boost Growth.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

New Delhi:<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In a major infrastructure push for eastern India, the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA)<\/strong> chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi<\/strong> has approved the construction of a 6-lane access-controlled Capital Region Ring Road (CRRR)<\/strong> around Bhubaneswar<\/strong>, spanning 110.875 km<\/strong>. The project, to be executed under the Hybrid Annuity Mode (HAM)<\/strong>, is estimated at a capital cost of Rs. 8,307.74 crore<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

Decongesting Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, Khordha<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The new greenfield highway<\/strong> will run from Rameshwar to Tangi<\/strong>, offering an alternate route for traffic currently crowding the existing National Highways<\/strong> that pass through Khordha, Bhubaneswar, and Cuttack<\/strong>. These urban centres face significant congestion due to high volumes of commercial and passenger vehicles.<\/p>\n

By creating a bypass, the CRRR aims to divert heavy traffic away from city centres<\/strong>, thus improving traffic flow<\/strong>, reducing logistics costs<\/strong>, and enhancing road safety<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\n

Strategic Integration with Key Corridors<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The new corridor will connect with:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • Three major National Highways<\/strong>: NH-55, NH-57, and NH-655<\/li>\n
  • One State Highway<\/strong>: SH-65<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    The alignment is strategically designed to link major economic and social nodes<\/strong>, including:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • 10 Economic Zones<\/strong>: SEZs, Mega Food Park, Textile and Pharma Clusters, Fishing Clusters<\/li>\n
    • 4 Social Nodes<\/strong>: Including aspirational and tribal districts<\/li>\n
    • 5 Logistic Nodes<\/strong>: Ensuring seamless freight movement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      The route also integrates with major transportation hubs:<\/p>\n

        \n
      • Bhubaneswar Airport<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Khordha Railway Station<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Ports of Puri and Astarang<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Proposed Multi-Modal Logistics Park (MMLP)<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
        \n

        Boost to Employment and Regional Growth<\/strong><\/h3>\n

        The project is expected to generate significant employment:<\/p>\n

          \n
        • 74.43 lakh person-days<\/strong> of direct employment<\/strong><\/li>\n
        • 93.04 lakh person-days<\/strong> of indirect employment<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Officials estimate the Annual Average Daily Traffic (AADT)<\/strong> for FY-2025 at 28,282 Passenger Car Units (PCU)<\/strong>, highlighting the urgent need for improved infrastructure to support rising demand.<\/p>\n

          \n

          \n

          Impact and Outlook<\/strong><\/h3>\n

          Once completed, the CRRR will serve as a critical backbone for Odisha\u2019s infrastructure<\/strong>, opening up new economic corridors<\/strong>, easing urban congestion, and facilitating trade, tourism, and industrial development<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

          The project stands as a testament to the government’s focus on regional connectivity<\/strong>, economic integration<\/strong>, and job creation<\/strong>, reinforcing Odisha\u2019s position as a key hub in India\u2019s eastern development corridor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
