Uttar Pradesh is set to receive a major infrastructure boost with the inauguration of the 63-km Lucknow–Kanpur Expressway. Union Ministers Rajnath Singh and Nitin Gadkari, along with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, will dedicate the six-lane corridor to the public. The expressway is expected to cut travel time between Lucknow and Kanpur to under an hour, improve connectivity to the industrial belt, ease traffic congestion, and strengthen trade and logistics across the state.
