T
he transport sector constitutes 6% of the country's GDP with the roads sector contributing 70%
of this share. India has an extensive road network of 4.86 Million kms which is the second largest
in the world. More than 60% of freight and 90% of passenger traffic in the country is handled by
roads sector. The government of India has launched major initiatives to upgrade and strengthen
highways and expressways in the country. The value of roadways and bridge infrastructure in India is
expected to reach USD 10 Billion by 2017. The length of National Highways is expected to grow from
92,850 kms in 2013-14 to 100,000 kms by the end of 2017. However, a large number of road projects
have been stalled due to delay in land acquisition, forest clearances, defence land handovers and
financial difficulties have slowed the pace of road construction to only 3 kms per day.
Mr Nitin Gadkari, Hon'ble Union Minister for Road Transport, Highways and Shipping has set a target
to develop 8,500 km of highways in 2014-15 and of constructing 30 kms of national highways every
day from 2016 onwards. The use of latest advanced technologies and smooth regulatory
mechanism assumes primary significance to achieve these targets in Road Construction. The
Government plans to achieve its target through the engineering, procurement and construction
mode.
On this backdrop, PHD Chamber is organizing a National Conference on “Road Construction in
India” - Roadmap for achieving Vision of 30 Kms a Day on 12th February 2015, 09:45 am at PHD
House, New Delhi. The main objective of the conference is to discuss and deliberate and offer
solutions to regulatory, financial and technological issues concerning road construction in India.
I feel honoured in inviting you to the conference or nominate a senior official from your organization
to attend it. Your presence and inputs will greatly enrich the deliberations. I sincerely hope that you
will kindly accept our invitation and send us your positive confirmation at the earliest.
