- Enhancement of the Administrative and Financial powers of various BRO executives to reduce the planning time.
- Adoption of new technologies to enhance the pace of road construction.
- Procurement of new and modern equipment and construction plants for road construction.
- Adoption of EPC mode of construction.
- Increased availability of air effort.
- Pre & Post road safety audit of roads in Area of Responsibility  of BRO.
