plan will soon be presented to the Government for approval. The expected project cost for Phase IV is
Rs.278,000.00 million.

six lanes. The current plan calls for upgrading about 6,500 kilometers of four-lane roads, along the Golden
Quadrilateral on design build finance operate basis. As of June 30, 2009, 130 kilometers of the project had
been completed, while 904 kilometers remains under construction and 5,466 kilometers remain to be
awarded. The expected project cost for Phase V is Rs.412,100.00 million.
Phase VI: The Government is working on constructing expressways that would connect major commercial
and industrial townships. It has already identified 1,000 km of the Baroda-Mumbai section that would be
connected to the existing Baroda-Ahmedabad section in this phase. The expressways will be funded on
BOT basis. In addition, the budget for the year ended March 31, 2008, stated that 1,000 kilometers of
expressways would be executed under Phase VI and six high density corridors were identified for carrying
out feasibility studies. The expected project cost for Phase VI is Rs.166,800.00 million.
Phase VII: This phase calls for improvements to city road networks by adding ring roads to enable easier
connectivity with national highways to substantial cities. In addition, improvements will be made to
stretches of national highways that require additional flyovers and bypasses given population and housing
growth along the highways and increasing traffic. The expected project cost for Phase VII is Rs.166,800.00
