The Ring Road is a 21-kilometre (13 mi), six-lane ring road encircling the city of Indore, Madhya Pradesh, India. It is built by Indore Development Authority (IDA).

Construction[edit]

Road[edit]

The road is a six-lane bituminous road, along with a bi-lane service road on both sides near major junctures.

Bridges[edit]

The whole stretch of Ring Road consists of four functional flyovers at Bengali Square,[1][2][3] World Cup Square, Teen Imli Square and the Kesarbagh Rail Overbridge[4] over the Akola-Ratlam line.

History[edit]

In July 2022, the authorities announced plans to construct a 55-kilometre-long (34 mi) Outer Ring Road to decrease the load as well as to extend the current ring road.[5][6]
