The New Indian Express Chennai
|October 03, 2025
TRAVELLING on India’s highways is set to become more convenient, with the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) revising its guidelines for roadside signboards to make them more informative and user-friendly.

Each panel will carry a Quick Response (QR) code that commuters can scan to access updated information of emergency services in the area instantly on their phones.
Under the new norms, the panels will display details of at least 20 essential services in the vicinity, including hospitals, police stations, fuel pumps, puncture repair shops, vehicle service centres and e-charging stations, along with relevant helpline numbers.
