Chart 2: Expenditure per Km of new road
How much a kilometer of road would have cost each state if all its road
expenditure had gone towards building new road (Total) or else increasing the amount of
surfaced (Surfaced) road. Probably due to changes in reporting methodology,
the amount of surfaced road declined in Goa, Bihar and Kerala over the time span.
Note: This chart is not indicative of the actual expenditure for new road or increase in surfaced road.
