NHAI To Build Three Flyovers On Jaipur–Agra Highway To Tackle Black Spots And Traffic Hazards: Report

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is set to construct three new flyovers at accident-prone stretches along the Jaipur–Agra highway, reported Times of India.

The proposed locations: Kanota, Bassi T-point, and Banskho Gate, all fall within Jaipur district and have been flagged as black spots due to their high frequency of collisions and traffic jams.

These sites, among 88 identified accident hotspots in the district, are especially hazardous due to uncontrolled turning points and unregulated cuts on the highway that lead to chaotic vehicle movement.

To address this, the NHAI has begun closing several of these open cuts as part of a broader road safety push.

“Several black spots, locations prone to frequent accidents, were identified on the highway, prompting authorities to begin closing multiple open cuts along the Jaipur–Agra bypass,” an official was quoted as saying by ToI.

These interventions are part of a long-term plan to streamline traffic and enhance safety on one of Rajasthan’s busiest national corridors.

At a recent Road Safety Committee meeting convened at the Jaipur district collectorate, NHAI’s proposal for flyover construction at the three key junctions received approval from the district collector.

Officials also reached consensus on closing the open cut in front of the popular 52 feet Hanuman temple near Ring Road in Bagranah, another area known for unsafe vehicular turns.

The flyovers are expected to significantly improve traffic flow, reduce accident rates, and support safer travel between Jaipur and Agra.
