The Central Government has approved a Rs 7.2 billion project to enhance road connectivity and traffic safety in Dehradun district, Uttarakhand. The initiative focuses on improving the Dehradun鈥揕al Tappar鈥揘epali Farm stretch of National Highway 7 and the Nepali Farm鈥揗otichur section of National Highway 34, covering a total length of 36.82 kilometres.
