Surat Chennai Expressway Progress In Maharashtra | October 2025 Update Surat–Chennai Expressway is an under-construction, 1,271 km (790 mi) long, 4/6-lanes. access-controlled expressway, which will connect the second largest city of Gujarat, Surat, with the capital of Tamil Nadu, Chennai, in India. It will pass through six states: Gujarat, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh and Tamil Nadu. It will be operated and maintained by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), and will reduce both travel time and distance from around 35 hours to around 18 hours, and from approximately 1,570 km (980 mi) to 1,271 km (790 mi). It will be built at a cost of ₹ 45,000 crore.

In the highest-value inaugurations in BRO’s history, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh recently unveiled 125 border infrastructure projects worth nearly ₹5,000 crore. These projects are aimed at reducing travel time, ensuring all-weather connectivity, and enhancing operational preparedness along sensitive border areas.
^^ sorry, how is the above relevant to "Indian Roads Thread". The above is about China and levitation systems more in synch with railways than roads.

And it just sent shockwaves through China.
This video investigates:
What this “impossible” fortress actually is
Why it was built deep in the Himalayas
How India overcame altitude, weather, and supply limits
Why this changes the balance of power along the border
You’ll discover:
The strategic chokepoints this fortress controls
How infrastructure has become the new weapon in modern conflicts
Why China is paying very close attention
What this means for future tensions, deterrence, and regional stability
This isn’t just construction—it’s strategy set in concrete and steel.

Mumbai - Pune Expressway Missing Link | Full On-Ground Project Update This video is a rare, on-ground deep dive into the Mumbai–Pune Expressway Missing Link project, filmed directly from the construction site with full access to its most critical components. We visited the actual alignment, covered all major tunnels, bridge sections, and engineering zones, and documented the progress using our own camera crew to ensure authenticity and accuracy. This is not a desk-based update every frame comes from the site itself.
The video features a comprehensive round-up of the project, including guided walkthroughs of the tunnels, explanations of construction methodology, geological challenges, safety systems, and the logic behind the project’s design. We also bring you an on-camera interaction with project engineers and officials, offering first-hand insights into execution timelines, engineering complexity, and why this link is one of the most technically challenging road projects in India.
Once completed, the Missing Link is expected to significantly improve safety, reduce travel time, and eliminate the ghat bottleneck on the Mumbai–Pune corridor. This video aims to document not just progress, but the scale of engineering, planning, and effort that goes into building critical national infrastructure. If you want to understand how such mega projects are actually built on the ground beyond headlines and render visuals this is a detailed, field-level perspective worth watching.
This isn’t just construction—it’s strategy set in concrete and steel.
