The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is preparing to move ahead with land acquisition for the proposed bypass corridor of the approved Kurukshetra bypass.
The project involves the construction of a 27.9 km bypass that is expected to divert through traffic away from the city.
As part of the development, around 217 hectares of land will be acquired. The acquisition process will span 25 villages, covering 24 villages in the Thanesar subdivision and one village in the Pehowa subdivision.
Planned along the southern edge of Kurukshetra, the new corridor will begin near Indbari, close to Jyotisar on the Kurukshetra-Pehowa route, and extend to Mathana village.
The alignment has been designed to integrate several important transport links, including Kirmach Road, Amin Road, State Highway-6, MDR-119 and National Highway-44, before ending at Mathana.
Officials view the project as a critical intervention for improving mobility in the district.
Traffic volumes on routes leading towards Delhi currently far exceed those heading towards Ambala, resulting in frequent bottlenecks within the city.
Improved connectivity could further strengthen economic activity, facilitate movement of goods and people, and enhance the district's attractiveness for investment and development.
