The Road Transport and Highway Ministry has planned to reduce the travel time between Delhi and Lucknow to less than four hours by building greenfield expressways and linking existing highways to the upcoming expressways. They will be made fully signal-free by building bypasses for congested stretches. There is already an expressway connectivity from Delhi to Ghaziabad. The ministry will improve the connectivity between these two expressways and will build bypasses for congested towns that fall on this link and also build elevated stretches. The NHAI will carry out a detailed study on how the distance can be reduced between the two capitals and NHAI will open the tender for the 6-lane expressway from Kanpur to Lucknow (62 km). Once completed, the travel between the two cities in UP will reduce to barely 30 minutes. The current distance between Delhi and Kanpur via Ghazaiabad by road is around 474 km and it takes around six and a half hours of non-stop driving to cover the stretch.
