On December 7, 2021, the Indian government will carry out widening work on National Highway 66 in Koch, India. The road will be widened so that there will be three lanes in either direction between Kodungalloor north of Kochi and Edappally in the city itself.

The Yamuna Expressway is currently the only high-grade road in India that barely meets the highway standard. According to Chinese standards, this road can only be between a first-class highway and a highway. From New Delhi, the capital, to Agra, the city where the famous scenic Taj Mahal is located, there is a fully enclosed section of more than 200 kilometers, a drive of about 3 hours, and a speed limit of 100 kilometers per hour.
