Centre sets 10,000 km highway target, no separate data on road design-linked accidents
Punjab Times (English Edition)
|August 26, 2025
The Union government has set a preliminary target of 10,000 km of National Highway construction for the current financial year, even as it admitted that no separate record is maintained on accidents caused specifically by poor design or structural flaws.
In a written reply in the Lok Sabha, Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said 10,660 km of highways were built in 2024-25. He noted that accident data published annually by the government was based on figures submitted by states and Union Territories, but stressed that crashes were a “multi-causal phenomenon” influenced by human error, road environment and vehicle condition.
