Highway plays a vital role for economic development of any country by providing basic infrastructure for systematic and timely movement of raw materials and industrial products from one point of a country to other point so as to maintain the flow of economy from one zone to the other. It is important for Highway to contribute, in economic development to well recognized, a country not progress economically unless it has a good system of Highway which links its different parts together and also different parts of the world. The need and importance of Highway in national economy can been determined by evaluating the economic and social impacts of that project on the people of the Nation. Economic growth of any nation is dependent on growth of Highway, including India. According to census 2011, 31% of population of India is considered to an urban population while the rest 69% is considered as rural and not suited for smooth transit. With increasing urbanization, urban areas will be covering near about 40% of India’s population and contribute 75% of India’s GDP by 2030. So it is hereby needed to have a connecting mapping of rural and urban Development. Therefore comprehensive development will be needed in physical, institutional, social and economic infrastructure.
