The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has launched a mobile application that will allow passengers to rate the national highways across the country. The Chairman of NHAI Deepak Kumar also launched a world-class, new multilingual website of the organization on October 3. He said that within two months the general public will be able to rate National Highways through this website.
NHAI has launched the app in coordination with the Boston Consulting Group. The app is available in both Android and Apple versions, will be accessible to all of its officers in the field and headquarters, and will enable access to any project dashboard in just two clicks of a button.
The highway authority also plans to launch a public interface of the Project Monitoring Information System (PMIS) desktop and app versions, so that the general public will be able to know the status of any highway project.
The NHAI website has been developed using state-of-art technologies and is user-friendly. The website will provide complete information about the organization, HR, projects, policies, videos and project photographs.
The PMIS is also enabled with Geographical Information System (GIS), which provides a geographical visualization of all NHAI projects on an India map. NHAI also said it will "certainly exceed" the current financial year's target of constructing 3,500 km of highways.
