Explanation

The Ahmedabad Vadodara Expressway, also known as National Expressway 1, was the first major project of its kind in India. It is a 93 kilometer long 6 lane expressway that significantly reduced travel time between the two major cities of Gujarat. While other cities listed also have major road links, this specific pair was the primary focus of early 6 lane expressway development in the Indian context for this type of question. At the time this question was framed, it was the landmark project connecting these two specific hubs.
