January 11, 2024: To ensure convenience for travellers on the upcoming Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway, a Highway Village is being developed along the route in Unnao. According to a TOI report, the land has been identified for the Highway Village at the Greenfield section on both sides of the expressway at a distance of around 31 km from Lucknow. Work on the section has also started on the other side of the Sai River.
Limited exit passages will be provided on the expressway to allow smooth passage to motorists. The Highway Village has been planned with maximum basic facilities. It will include restaurants, hotels, food court, banks, workshops, fuel stations, including CNG stations and charging points.
The Lucknow-Kanpur Expressway is a 63-km six-lane expressway being developed by the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI). In the first phase of the project, an 18 km elevated road is being developed between Lucknow and Bani. Once operational, the expressway will reduce travel time between the two cities from 1.5 hours to about 45 minutes.
As cited in the media report, the project director of NHAI Lucknow, Saurabh Chaurasia, said the expressway will be connected to Purvanchal Expressway, Agra-Lucknow Expressway and Ganga Expressway. For the convenience of commuters, the authority has decided to develop a Highway Village comprising various facilities where commuters can rest. They have identified the land at the Greenfield section of the Highway Village.
