Amaravati, March 04, 2026: The Andhra Pradesh government has rolled out a detailed logistics roadmap to position the state as a national hub with the lowest costs in India.

Presented earlier this year, the plan drives heavy spending on connectivity: Rs 76,000 crore for 3,358 km of national highways over three years, linking key industrial corridors to export points; elimination of level crossings via 774 overbridges and underbridges at Rs 14,500 crore; and railway projects exceeding Rs 3 lakh crore, set for rollout between 2026 and 2029.

Major boosts include the near-complete Bhogapuram International Airport (operational by June 2026), new greenfield airports, and advancing ports like Ramayapatnam (75% done), Mulapeta, Machilipatnam, and Kakinada SEZ.

Tech upgrades feature a unified dashboard and mobile app for real-time tracking and analytics, plus commodity-focused improvements in cold chains for fruits and vegetables.
