The Punjab government has launched a Rs 700 crore “next-generation road renovation programme” to upgrade key roads and junctions in Mohali, officials said.

The project is scheduled to begin in February 2026 and is expected to be completed by October. It aims to modernise major arterial roads, improve junction design and reduce traffic congestion, reported The Times of India.

Planned works include resurfacing of roads, improvements to street lighting, and landscaping at key junctions. Officials said the programme will also focus on enhancing green spaces along major corridors.
