SH 9 originates from Durgapur and passes through Barjora, Beliatore, Bikna, Bankura, Taldangra, Simlapal, Raipur Bazar, Matgoda, Phulkusma, Silda, Gidhni, Chilkigarh, Gopiballavpur, Chhatinasol and terminates at Nayagram.

The section of the highway from Muchipara to Durgapur barrage is being 4 laned as per the decisions taken by the West Bengal Government in 2017.

A whole new 4 Laned wide bridge is planned as a substitute for the shaky Durgapur Barrage which was not repaired even once since its construction in 1950.

Owing to these reasons a whole new bridge is under construction and hopefully will be complete in 3 years.

The entire road would be wide 4 laned with street light mounted dividers with a railing.
