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 41.10 lakh km as on 31.3.2008. Concomitantly, the surfaced road 

had increased from 1.57 lakh km to around 20.36 lakh km over the same period. The 

increase in road length during 1950-51 through 2007-08 is depicted in Chart I.

Surfaced Total 

The share of the surfaced road length in the total road length also reflected an 

improvement. Surfaced road length accounted for 49.5 % 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 41.10 lakh km in March 2008 - an increase of 349 % 

over these 37 years yielding a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.1 %. The 

total road network in the country grew from 36.21 lakh in March 2004 to 41.10 lakh 

in March 2008 reflecting an increase of 4.89 lakh km yielding a CAGR of 3.2 % 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 20,36,063 km ( 

accounting for 49.5 % 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 24,50,559 km (including 10,61,809 

lakh km roads constructed under JRY & PMGSY )registering an increase of nearly 591 

% and a CAGR of 5.4 %. 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.

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 3.89 million km is covered by the Other PWD Roads, Rural Roads 

and Project and Urban Roads. About 60 % of the total road length in India is 

accounted for by rural roads consisting of (i) Panchayat Raj Roads (about 33 %) 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 26% share in rural roads. Roads constructed 

under the JRY (about 22 %) are of limited value from the point of view of movement 

vi

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 4.11 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 

project ever undertaken in the country. The NHDP is being implemented by National 

vii

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 31 st 

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 31 st 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 31 st 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 

(Table 3.5). 

8. Other PWD Roads 

8.1 The total length of Other PWD roads have increased by about 20 % from 

7,19,257 km in March 2004 to 8,63,241 km in March 2008. More than 83 % of the 

Other PWD Roads were surfaced consisting of 6,44,142 km (89.5 %) were Black 

Top/Cement Concrete & only 75,241 km (10.5 %) were Water Bound Macadam. 

About 59 % (85,191 km) of the total 1,43,858 km of unsurfaced roads were reported 

to be motorable ( Tables 4.1 & 4.5). 

8.2 Uttar Pradesh had the highest length of roads under Other PWD roads (1,38,024 

km), with 97.5 % of the roads being of surfaced category. Rajasthan had the 

second highest kilometres (92,029 km) constructed under Other PWD roads. Of this, 

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 31 st 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, 

Karnataka had reported the highest road length under the jurisdiction of Zilla 

Parishads at 1,44,725 km followed by Maharashtra with 1,02,149 km of Zilla Parishad 

roads(Table 5.1). 

10. Village Panchayat Roads 

10.1 The road length under this category were 6,70,107 km as on 31 st 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 210035 km as on 31 st March 

2008. More than 24% 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 31 st 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 31 st 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 1.25 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.

Source: Panchayati Raj Deptts./Rural Road Deptts. under various State Governments. 

Decrease in total and surfaced road lengths between 2004 and 2005 is mainly because 

of lower updated data recently reported from Panchayati Raj/Rural Development Departments 

of Bihar, Maharashtra & West Bengal Data reported in BRS 2004 pertained to 1981, 2002 and 2003 

respectively for these three States. 

# also include rural roads under Village Panchayat.

TOTAL AND SURFACED LENGTH OF URBAN ROADS IN INDIA 


(In Kms) 

→ 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.
