The Lucknow-Kanpur expressway, completed in June 2025, began failing seventeen days after its July 2026 inauguration. NHAI is penalizing the builder, PNC Infratech, for road surface damage and subsidence. Investigators found oxidation and inadequate drainage systems contributed to the expressway's rapid deterioration. Officials are considering reconstructing a significant portion of the 525-mm pavement package. Commuters face diversions and repairs for at least three more months.
