Pre-historic period:
The history of roads is as old as the history of man on earth. The prehistoric men traced out a narrow way for going out for hunting the
food. The narrow way was as footpath or pathway. The pathway is
considered as the first road mark laid on the surface of earth. The
utility and necessity of pathway gradually developed with the
introduction of wheeled carts. The pathway was widened into
a roadway which was the beginning of road as a means of
communication and transport.
Ancient history of India reveals that long long ago; Indians knew the
science of road construction. The excavations
at Mohenjodaro and Harappa (Pakistan) have established that even
3500 years BC, there was a well designed network of roads, and
streets were paved at that time.
a. Aryan period:
During the Aryan period, there are references in Rig Veda (Part 1,
Para 5) about 'Mahapaths' as a means of communication. About 600
years B.C., a pucca road (6.1 m to 7.3 m wide) was built
in Rajgir (ancient Rajagriha) of Patna district by king Bimbisara. This
road was made of stones and is still in existence.
b. Mauryan period:
During this period, roads were developed on technical basis
specifications were laid down for width of roads, given to the surface
of roads and the convexity of road surface was compared to the back
of a tortoise.
Artha Shastra, the well known treatise on administration, gives a good
deal of information regarding roads along with specifications adopted
during Mauryan period. The book of Artha Shastra was written in
about 300 years B.C by Kautilya, the first prime minister of Emperor
Chandragopta Maurya.
Chandragopta Maurya(322-298 B.C.) took keen interest in the
maintenance and development of roads. He had a separate
department of communications to look after the public roads. He got
constructed the GT Road connecting North-West frontier with capital
Patliputra, the modern Patna. He also got fixed some sign post in the
form of pillars and mile stones along the road side at regular intervals.
Emperor Ashoka took special interest in the improvement of roads and
provided facilities to the travelers. Such facilities were in the form of
plantation of trees, digging walls and constructing rest houses at about
4.8 to 6.4 kms distance along the roads. The famous Chinese traveler
Fahien had spoken very highly of the roads of that time in the record
of his travel.
India has a road network of over 4,689,842 kilometres (2,914,133 mi) in 2013,[1]
[2]
the second largest road network in the world. At 0.66 km of roads per square
kilometre of land, the quantitative density of India's road network is similar to that
of the United States (0.65) and far higher than that of China (0.16) or Brazil
(0.20). However, qualitatively India's roads are a mix of modern highways and
narrow, unpaved roads, and are being improved. As of 2011, 54 percent about
2.53 million kilometres of Indian roads were paved.[2][3]
Adjusted for its large population, India has less than 3.8 kilometres of roads per
1000 people, including all its paved and unpaved roads. In terms of quality, all
season, 4 or more lane highways, India has less than 0.07 kilometres of
highways per 1000 people, as of 2010. These are some of the lowest road and
highway densities in the world. For context, United States has 21 kilometres of
roads per 1000 people, while France about 15 kilometres per 1000 people
predominantly paved and high quality in both cases. In terms of all season, 4 or
more lane highways, developed countries such as United States and France
have a highway density per 1000 people that is over 15 times as India.
India in its past did not allocate enough resources to build or maintain its road
network.[3] This has changed since 1995, with major efforts currently underway to
modernize the country's road infrastructure.[4]

As of April 2015, India had completed and placed in use over 24,000 kilometres
of recently built 4 or 6-lane highways connecting many of its major manufacturing
centres, commercial and cultural centres.[5][6] The rate of new highway
construction across India accelerated after 1999, but has slowed in recent years.
Policy delays and regulatory blocks reduced the rate of highway construction
awards to just 500 kilometers of new road projects in 2013.[7] Major projects are
being implemented under the National Highways Development Project, a
government initiative. Private builders and highway operators are also
implementing major projects - for example, the Yamuna Expresswaybetween
Delhi and Agra was completed ahead of schedule and within budget,[8] while
the KMP Expressway started in 2006 is far behind schedule, over budget and
incomplete.[9]
According to 2009 estimates by Goldman Sachs, India will need to invest US$1.7
trillion on infrastructure projects before 2020 to meet its economic needs, a part
of which would be in upgrading India's road network.[10] The Government of
India is attempting to promote foreign investment in road projects.[10][11][12] Foreign
participation in Indian road network construction has attracted 45 international
contractors and 40 design/engineering consultants, with Malaysia, South
Korea, United Kingdom and United States being the largest players.[13
History[edit]
India highway density map in lane kilometers [14] per 100,000 people as of 2012. India's
average was 7.7 lane km per 100,000, compared to Japan's 49 lane km, and USA's 114
lane km per 100,000 people. Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal had the lowest lane
kilometer densities in India.[15]
The first evidence of road development in the Indian subcontinent can be traced
back to approximately 2800 BC from the ancient cities
of Harrapa and Mohenjodaro of the Indus Valley Civilization. Ruling emperors
and monarchs of ancient India had constructed roads to connect the cities.
Archaeological excavations give us fresh information about road connectivity in
ancient India. The Grand Trunk Roadwas built by Sher Shah Suri in 1540-45
connecting Sonargaon near Dhaka in Bangladesh with Peshawar in modern-day
Pakistan linking several cities from in India.[16]
India inherited a poor road network infrastructure at the time of its independence
in 1947. Beyond that, between 1947 and 1988, India witnessed no new major
projects, and the roads were poorly maintained. Predominantly all roads were
single lane, and most were unpaved. India had no expressways, and less than
200 kilometers of 4-lane highways. In 1988, an autonomous entity called the
National Highways Authority of India was established in India by an Act of
Parliament, and came into existence on 15 June 1989. The Act empowered this
entity to develop, maintain and manage India's road network through National
Highways. However, even though the Authority was created in 1988, not much
happened till India introduced widespread economic liberalization in the early
1990s. Since 1995, the authority has privatized road network development in
India, and by May 2014 delivered a state wise lengths of over 92,851 kilometers
of National Highways, of which 22,757 kilometers are 4-lane or 6-lane modern
highways.[6][17][18]

Expressways[edit]
Main article: Expressways in India
The above 17,700 kilometres of highways connect most of the major manufacturing
centers, commercial and cultural cities of India. [33] TheNational Highways Authority
of India (NHAI) is the authority responsible for the development, maintenance and
management of National Highways entrusted to it. The NHAI is undertaking the
developmental activities under National Highways Development Project (NHDP) in 5
phases. The NHAI is also responsible for implementing other projects on National
Highways, primarily road connectivity to major ports in India.
As of June 2012, under Phase I, II, III and V of India's national effort has already
finished and put in use about 18,000 kilometers of 4/6 lane highways. The country is
in process of building an additional 33,441 kilometers of 4 to 6 lanes, international
quality highways throughout India. Of this target, about 13,700 kilometers of
modern highways were under implementation in June 2012, and about 18,000
kilometers of highways have been identified for contract award. [6] India road
building rate has accelerated in recent years and averaged about 11 kilometers per
day in second half of 2011. The country targets to build 600 kilometers of modern
roads every month through 2014.

State Highways[edit]
Main article: State highways in India
India has been adding paved single lane rural roads under itsPMGSY
initiative launched in 2000.[37]
Rural Roads[edit]
The rural roads in India forms a substantial portion of the Indian road network.
These roads are in poor shape, affecting the rural population's quality of life and
Indian farmer's ability to transfer produce to market post-harvest. Over 30 percent
of Indian farmer's harvest spoils post-harvest because of the poor infrastructure.
Many rural roads are of poor quality, potholed, and unable to withstand the loads of
heavy farm equipment. These roads are also far from all season, good quality 2-lane
or 4-lane highways, making economic resource flow slow, and logistical costs
between different parts of India one of the highest in the world. For the
development of these rural roads, Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (or "Prime
Minister Rural Roads Scheme"), was launched in December 2000 by the Indian
government to provide connectivity to unconnected rural habitations. The scheme
envisions that these roads will be constructed and maintained by the village
panchayats. In some parts of India, where the government has attempted to
manage it directly as a local social spending program, this program has produced
limited results and no lasting change over 10 years, in either the quality or quantity
of rural road network.[38]
In other parts of India, the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana and a sister program
named Bharat Nirman (or Build India) have privatized the rural road construction
projects and deployed contractors. The effort has aimed to build all-season, single
lane, paved asphalted roads that connect India's rural and remote areas. A
significant portion of funding for these projects has come from the World
Bank and Asian Development Bank.[39] This has produced results, which are
presented in the table below.

sums spent. The funds aimed to employ local villagers through their panchayats is
not changing the quality of rural roads, rather ending up in wasteful spending and
corrupt government officials pockets. The gloomiest estimates suggest two-thirds
of allocated scheme funds is being squandered. A review published by the Ministry
in September 2011 found that skilled technicians were unavailable at almost every
site. There were rules banning the use of machinery or contractors, labour is usually
by shovel, resulting in patchy construction of roads, drains, ponds, dams and other
assets that are of very poor quality. The government scheme has failed to improve
India's awful rural infrastructure. These rural roads get washed away each monsoon,
only to be rebuilt, badly, the following year. [40]
