The Jalna-Nanded Expressway is a link road greenfield project that connects the largest cities of Marathwada (Jalna, Parbhani, Hingoli, and Nanded) to Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway, which is also officially known as Hindu Hrudaysamrat Balasaheb Thackeray Maharashtra Samruddhi Mahamarg.[1] Proposed as 6-lane wide, this segment will reduce the road distance between Jalna and Nanded from 226 kilometres to 179 kilometres and bring down travel time between Nanded and Mumbai from 12 hours to around 6 hours.[2]

Route Alignment[edit]

The Jalna-Nanded Expressway will travel through Jalna, Parbhani, and Nanded districts directly. The 179-kilometre Jalna-Nanded segment passes through 87 villages. Around 93.52 kilometres of this segment passes through four tehsils in Parbhani, while 66.46 kilometres passes through three tehsils of Jalna and 19.82 kilometres passes through one tehsil in Nanded.[3]
