Government of India has approved a ₹1,400 crore project to construct a 14-km elevated corridor connecting Sevoke Cantonment to Sevoke Bazar near Siliguri. The project, aimed at transforming regional connectivity, is scheduled to be completed by 2028. The project is part of broader efforts to upgrade National Highway-10, a crucial link for Darjeeling, Kalimpong, and Dooars in Bengal with Sikkim. The highway plays a vital role in facilitating travel, trade, and tourism, along with national security. The new corridor will eliminate the traffic bottlenecks caused by the railway level crossing at Sevoke, ensuring a smooth journey for travelers. The elevated corridor is also projected to benefit the local economy by increasing tourist footfall and creating new economic opportunities.
