The National Highway No. 22 is a prominent road passing through Solan town. It is an important road from many points of view. Firstly it is a defence road connecting Delhi, Dehradun, Ambala and Chandigarh to the China Border. Next it is the life line of our State as all raw products, building materials, passengers, goods etc. come through this route only. Our own products go out via it. It is on account of its significance that there are today 2 bye passes within Solan Planning Area. These are :-
- Solan bye- pass linking Saproon and Chambaghat.
- Barog bye pass linking Saproon and Kumarhatti via Anji & Raboun. The Centre Government is also likely to undertake the 4-laning of this road. Surveys and studies have been completed in this regard.
Besides N.H.-22, we have many other important roads connecting Solan to its nearby areas, towns or settlements. These are: -
- Solan - Rajgarh road.
- Solan - Subathu - Arki Road.
- Solan - Kandaghat road via Basal and Salumana.
- Solan - Jaunaji - road.
- Solan - Damrog - Jatoli road.
- Solan - Ashwani Khad road. It will ultimately connect Solan to Herth as well as Chail.
