The first time I have seen a 4 lane highway (towards theend of the video in the Ghat section) without any median/divider in India. Is it cheaper to widen a highway to 4 lanes this way than building a complete second carrigeway.

Nice picture.
If only the road were divided into lanes, with the drivers sticking to those lanes, it would've been perfect!

From the picture itself it is clear that there is ample scope of widening the road to 6-8 lane. Vacant land is available extensively on both sides of the highway.
