Surat – Navsari High-Speed Elevated Corridor to Come Up at a Cost of Rs 221 Crore

Surat – Navsari High-Speed Elevated Corridor to Come Up at a Cost of Rs 221 Crore March 20, 2026 Surat: Travel between Surat and Navsari via Sachin is set to become faster with the construction of a new high-speed elevated corridor on the Surat–Sachin–Navsari road. The project will be taken up by the Roads and Buildings (R&B) Department of the Gujarat government at an estimated cost of ₹221.59 crore. The proposed elevated corridor will be built from km 13/4 to km 21/4 on the busy Surat–Sachin–Navsari stretch of State Highway, one of the most congested routes in South Gujarat. The project aims to ensure smoother traffic flow, reduce travel time and ease frequent traffic congestion between Surat and Navsari. The Roads and Buildings Department has issued a tender inviting bids for the project. As per the tender document, the project will be completed within a time limit of 21 months, including the monsoon season. The work will be executed under the supervision of the state Roads and Buildings Department. The project includes construction of a large elevated corridor bridge with multiple spans. Modern engineering features such as Reinforced Earth (RE) walls and pile foundations of 1.20-metre diameter will be used to ensure structural strength and durability. Along with the elevated corridor, service roads, footpaths and proper drainage systems will also be developed to improve traffic management and pedestrian safety. Crash barriers and other road safety furniture as per prescribed standards will be installed along the corridor. One of the key features of the project is the installation of a Bridge Health Monitoring System (BHMS). The bridge will be fitted with advanced equipment such as tri-axial accelerometers, strain gauges and temperature sensors to monitor the structural condition and safety of the bridge round the clock. The new elevated corridor is expected to save significant travel time and fuel for thousands of motorists commuting daily between Surat, Sachin and Navsari, while also supporting industrial and economic activity in the region.
