The Nagpur-Bhandara-Gondia Expressway, officially named the Nagpur-Bhandara-Gondia Access Controlled Super Communication Expressway, is a planned four-lane greenfield project that connects the cities of Vidarbha which are Kuhi, Bhandara, Tirora and Gondia to Mumbai-Nagpur Expressway.[1] Proposed as four lanes wide, this segment will reduce the road distance between Nagpur SEZ and Bhandara-Gondia and bring down travel time between Nagpur SEZ and Bhandara-Gondia further to capital of state Mumbai.[2]
