Perspective
Belgharia expressway runs through the northern metropolitan area of Kolkata bypassing the core city area. From west to east, starting from Jessore Road intersection near Dumdum/Kolkata Airport gate 3 (west end), it transverses through major places like Durganagar, North Dumdum, Belgharia, Dunlop, Dakshineswar, passes the Hooghly river by Nivedita Setu and terminates at the Rajchandrapur intersection with NH 16 and NH 19.
The expressway is 4 laned from Kolkata Airport to Dakshineswar and the extended portion upto Rajchandrapur along with Nivedita Setu is 6 laned. There are no service lanes and main carriageway lanes can not be expanded which becomes an issue for National Highways Authority of India.[5]
