- The Bundelkhand express route is linked to Delhi and the National Capital Region via the Agra-Lucknow expressway and the Yamuna expressway.
- According to the Bundelkhand expressway route plan, The Bundelkhand Expressway begins near Bharatkoop, in the Chitrakoot district of Uttar Pradesh.
- Chitrakoot, Mahoba, Hamirpur, Banda, Jalaun, Auraiya, and Etawah are among the districts connected by the Bundelkhand expressway.
- Furthermore, large rivers like the Betwa, Yamuna, Bagen, Ken, Chandrawal, Birma, and Sengar run along the Bundelkhand highway corridor.
- The highway was built at roughly Rs 14,850 crore cost and was finished in 28 months.

- PMO reported that development has started in industrial areas in Banda and Jalaun districts close to the expressway.
- The Bundelkhand Expressway begins near Bharatkoop, in the Chitrakoot district of Uttar Pradesh. The highway connects with the Agra-Lucknow expressway near Kudrail village in Etawah.
- Four railway overbridges, 14 big crossings, seven ramp plazas, six toll plazas, 266 minor bridges, and 18 flyovers are part of the expressway project.
- Special technologies were utilised in the bridge's construction. According to the UPEIDA head engineer, the ribs were formed over thermoplastic linings on the roadside.
- This will notify the driver that his car has slipped off the road. This safety precaution is different from those employed in Agra and Poorvanchal.
- PM Modi claimed during the project's inauguration that the highway would improve connectivity between the region and services in larger cities, allowing thousands of locals to relocate more easily in search of better work prospects.
- Moreover, he also added that "Bundelkhand is on track to become a major hub for the 'Make in India' initiative, with items made in the state being exported. Smaller sectors are projected to prosper in due course".

- UPEIDA saved approximately Rs. 1,800 crores on three expressway projects, including the Purvanchal Expressway, the Bundelkhand Expressway, and the Gorakhpur Link Expressway.
- E-tendering was used to award construction projects for the three projects.
- According to UPEIDA head engineer Manoj Kumar Gupta, the minimum tender for the Purvanchal Expressway was reduced by 5.19% from the expected cost, leading to a profit of around Rs 614 crores.
- Within five days of the expressway's launch, portions of the road caved in several spots during the heavy rain on July 20, 2022, causing some vehicles to collide.
- Several videos went trendy on social media, with people condemning and criticising the government for the expressway's low-quality work and the degree of corruption involved in the project.
