Delhi–Mumbai E-Way’s DND–Jaitpur Stretch Ready by June 2026

The government informed the Lok Sabha on Thursday that the first leg of the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway’s DND–Jaitpur stretch in Delhi will be ready by June 2026.

Responding in writing to a question from South Delhi MP Ramvir Singh Bidhuri, Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari said the 59-kilometre DND–Faridabad–Sohna link is being built in three construction packages, with the last two already completed and opened to traffic.

“Project package-1 from DND Junction to Jaitpur, covering 9 kilometres, is in an advanced stage with 94.23 per cent physical progress and is scheduled for completion by June 2026. The delay is due to the late approval of general arrangement drawings from the Uttar Pradesh Irrigation Department for the Agra Canal crossing,” Gadkari said.

He added that a total of Rs 717.18 billion has been spent so far on the entire Delhi–Mumbai Expressway project.

"Join industry leaders at RAHSTA Expo, India's premier platform for roads, highways and traffic infrastructure. Register now to explore innovations, network with experts and shape the future of mobility."
