  • There's a brand new road connecting Nagpur to Mumbai. Formally called the Hindu Hriday Samrat Balasaheb Thackeray Maharashtra Samruddhi Mahamarg, it's a 701km long, 6 lane access controlled expressway. And we've got exclusive time on it before it opens to the public. Nikhil Bhatia introduces you to the road from behind the wheel of a 612hp Mercedes-AMG E 63 S!

    "American roads are not good because America is rich, but America is rich because American roads are good," US President John F Kennedy once said. This is how countries prosper and progress. Kudos to India.

    I guess the reason why the speed limit is not 150kmph on this expressway is simple. People and cars ,People are not experienced to handle such speeds and likely go above it, at most places .Majority of Indian cars are either not tested for safety or have failed safety tests . Hope this helps!!!!

    Nagpur is at the centre of India. So, the success of this road can be a role model for similar projects to boost pan India connectivity. For instance, Nagpur-Chennai, Nagpur-Kolkata ( Via gaya with straight branching to Patna, Ranchi, Vizag) Nagpur-Chennai, Nagpur- Delhi ( with a provision for straight branching to Lahore and Karachi for future)

    Kudos to MSRDC after the success of Mumbai - Pune EWay
    they have unleashed ME2; the samruddhi express way will catapult Maharashtra to the next level of urbanization.
    The Expressway is going to witness development of lots food joints, resorts, parks and other commercial establishments.
    The entire 700 km stretch will urbanize like anything.
    Hope work on the Vidarbha and Marathwada extensions begins sooner.

    Amazing road, superb car and entertaining host. I hope the access control and cameras are not just for the speed but also for lanes. Heavy trucks hog right Lane which is only for overtaking on Mumbai Pune expressway and it results into accidents, chaos and defeats the whole purpose of an expressway. I hope the government enforces very strict Lane discipline and speed limit like we have in the West.

    The kind of potential for development that such huge infrastructural projects hold, in a fast developing economy like ours, is mind boggling. I can only imagine the plethora of oppportunities this Expressway opens up for a wide range of population, from businessmen to unemployed youth to agriculturists. Looks really promising. Thank you @AutocarIndia for an entertaining as well as thought provoking video.

    Roads like these should have a lower speed limit too, like there is, in US and Europe. Despite the road, there will be trucks and several passenger cars which will literally drive at a snail's pace in all the lanes, essentially slowing the entire highway down. Now that such infrastructure is being constructed, such problems need to be addressed before they become problems.

    All sounds good. But what are the measures for enforcing lane discipline for heavy vehicles? Speed limit for Truck is 80 Km/hr and that for Car is 120 Km/hr. Obviously lane restriction should also be maintained for Trucks.

The Government is doing something good for us citizens so we should also respect their effort. Also a big salute to Mr. Nitin Gadkariji for transforming India's roadways and overall vehicular safety regulations. He is truly doing some great work and not just giving promises like some of our esteemed leaders.

  • @LplusRatioLol
    @LplusRatioLol 2 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    Expressway is great, but the 1200 rupees for a 700km journey in just tolls which saves 8 hours seems excessive for most people. Recovering money from this may become difficult which can lead to a similar situation that China is facing with its HSR network, i.e., underutilization & debt. I would suggest to cap the toll to 1 rupee per km which will definitely lead to many more people utilizing the expressway.
    To put that into perspective, a 1hr 30 min flight between 2 cities costs 1700 rupees per person. That is 6800 for 4 people.
    While a car with 4 people in it costs 5000 fuel +1200 toll = 6200.( this is a conservative measure given the efficiency is 14 km/l. 8 hours travel time…..
