What is Electric Highway?
In simple language, an electric highway is a highway on which electric vehicles move. If you have noticed, you must have seen that there is an electric wire on the train. This wire is connected to the train engine through an arm, which provides electricity to the entire train.
Similarly, electricity wires will also be installed on the highway, due to which all the vehicles plying on the highway will get electricity. Not only this, but these vehicles will also get charging points at a short distance, so that the vehicles can be charged easily.
