During the inauguration of the UP Diwas here, Adityanath said the project, costing Rs 23,000 crore, was expected to be completed by 2020.
The eight-lane Expressway will be built on the lines of the 304-km Agra-Lucknow Expressway. The Purvanchal Expressway was also conceptualised by the previous Samajwadi Party government.
The Adityanath government is also planning a 110-km four-lane Expressway to link the Chief Minister's hometown Gorakhpur with the proposed 340-km Purvanchal Expressway.
