'''Expressways''' are the highest class of roads in '''[[India]]'''. As of January 2022, India has a total length of {{convert|2074.5|km|mi|abbr=on}} of expressways. These are [[controlled-access highway]]s where entrance and exits are controlled by the use of [[Interchange (road)|ramps]] that are incorporated into the [[Controlled-access highway#Design|design of the expressway]], whereas [[National highways of India|National highways]] are [[Intersection (road)|at-grade roads]]. Some roads are not access-controlled expressway, but are still officially called expressways, such as the [[Biju Expressway]], [[Ranchi Hazaribagh Expressway]] and [[Raipur–Bilaspur Expressway]]. Currently, the longest expressway in India is the [[Purvanchal Expressway]] at 340.8 km (211.8 mi) and the widest expressway is the [[Delhi–Meerut Expressway]] at 14 lanes.

Greenfield Expressways in India are designed as 12-[[lane]] wide Expressways with the initial construction of 8-lanes. Land for 4-lane future expansion is reserved in the centre of the expressways. Greenfield Expressways are designed to avoid inhabited areas and go through new alignments to bring development to new areas and to reduce land acquisition costs and construction timelines. The [[Delhi-Mumbai Expressway]] is an example of a new 12-lane approach with initial 8-lane construction.

The majority of the investment required for constructing expressways comes from the [[Government of India|central government]]. [[Uttar Pradesh]] and [[Maharashtra]] are the only states which are investing in building expressways through dedicated expressway corporations.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/business/india-business/maharashtra-up-to-drive-state-led-capex-in-road-sector-in-next-3-yrs/articleshow/69219363.cms|title=Maharashtra, UP to drive state-led capex in road sector in next 3 yrs - Times of India|website=The Times of India|access-date=1 June 2019}}</ref>
