Work on the 340-kilometer long Purvanchal Expressway is progressing in full swing after the Yogi Adityanath government brought forward the deadline for the project and extended the expressway up to Ballia on the border with Bihar.









On 2 June, Chief Secretery Anup Chandra Pandey had inspected the under-construction Purvanchal Expressway from air. Adityanath wants the 340 kilometer long expressway to be complete by August next year and work on two other projects — the Bundelkhand Expressway and the Gorakhpur Link Expressway — to start in three months. He has also ordered survey work for the ambitious Ganga Expressway linking Meerut and Prayagraj to begin in the next three months.
