National Highway 118 is a national highway of India. It used to connect Asanboni and Jamshedpur in the state of Jharkhand.[1] At 17 km (11 mi) length, it was one of the shortest national highways in India.[2] Before renumbering of national highways, route of NH-118 was part of old national highway 32. It is a spur road of National Highway 18.[3] But post 2021, the route is extended to Chawlibasa on NH43 connecting Jamshedpur with Adityapur, Kandra, Chowka & Dulmi Ghat. Jamshedpur/Tatanagar vehicles now use this Adityapur, Kandra, Chowka, Dulmi Ghat, Chawlibasa route to travel Ranchi due to development works undergoing at Chandil Gol chakkar area.[4]
