Rewari bypass
The current alignment of NH 71 passes through Rewari municipal limits. The existing Rewari-Bawal road has only two lanes. Therefore land has been acquired in year 2011 to construct a new four-lane road that would take off from NH 71 before Rewari while coming from Jhajjar, bypass Rewari town and join NH 8 (Delhi – Jaipur – Ahmedabad - Mumbai highway) at village Sangwadi instead of Bawal. The new alignment of NH 71 from Rohtak would, thus, be Jhajjar – Rewari – Sangwadi instead of Jhajjar – Rewari – Bawal.See also
