Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said the Mumbai‑Goa highway is now nearly 94% complete, indicating that most of the 500‑km stretch is ready for traffic.
The project, launched in 2017, aims to create a four‑lane, high‑speed corridor linking Maharashtra’s financial hub with the coastal state of Goa, cutting travel time considerably.
Gadkari added that the remaining work, including final surfacing and safety installations, is expected to be finished by the end of the year, after which the highway will be opened for public use.
