Mohan Yadav and Nitin Gadkari Inaugurate Madhya Pradesh’s Longest Flyover and Road Projects Worth ₹4,250 Crore
The newly inaugurated flyover is expected to transform urban mobility in Jabalpur by significantly reducing traffic congestion, ensuring smoother travel, and cutting down travel time for daily commuters. As the city continues to expand, the elevated corridor will also ease pressure on existing roadways and make intra-city movement more efficient.
Beyond Jabalpur, the nine road projects cover key stretches across Madhya Pradesh, creating faster connectivity between towns, cities, and rural belts. These upgraded road networks will directly benefit trade and commerce by improving the movement of goods and reducing logistical costs. Farmers and local industries will particularly gain from easier access to major markets, boosting economic opportunities in the region.

Better road infrastructure also plays a crucial role in attracting new investments and industries. With smoother and safer highways, Madhya Pradesh is set to strengthen its position as a hub for manufacturing, logistics, and tourism. The reduction in travel time will encourage tourism in historic cities like Jabalpur, already known for landmarks such as Bhedaghat and Marble Rocks.
Chief Minister Mohan Yadav expressed gratitude to Nitin Gadkari, describing the projects as “priceless gifts” to the people of Madhya Pradesh. He emphasized that these infrastructural developments will not only improve connectivity but also enhance the overall quality of life for citizens.
