After Independence, the process of making roads in Uttarakhand was very slow but, the 1962 war of Indo-China gave a much-needed boost to the construction of roads, all over the Uttarakhand because it share a wide range of border with china. Today, Uttarakhand proudly exhibits 14 National Highways, having a length of 2108 kilometres. Below is the list of all National highways with their route.
