National Highway NH717A, a new gateway to Sikkim, bypassing Coronation Bridge and NH10 is nearing completion
Construction work on the alternative highway NH717A which will provide a direct route from West Bengal to Sikkim is progressing fast. It will bypass Coronation Bridge (Bagh Pool) and NH10. This strategic highway begins in Bagrakot, West Bengal (NH17), and concludes at Ranipool in Sikkim.
Once completed, NH717A will serve as a vital route through India’s northeastern borders, enhancing connectivity near Bhutan, China, and Bangladesh. This highway not only improves connectivity between rural areas of Sikkim but also reduces the travel distance between Pakyong Airport and Gangtok, the state capital by 2.5 kilometers, greatly benefiting residents and travelers alike.
