NHAI to Develop Rs 910 Billion Road Projects to Boost Delhi Links

The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is advancing the preparation of Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for three new road links in Delhi, with an estimated project cost of Rs 910 billion. The final budget will be determined after the completion of DPRs, which are expected to be finalised within six to seven months. Once completed, these links will enhance connectivity and reduce traffic congestion in and around the city.

The first proposed road spans 20 km, linking the Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) with the Delhi-Katra Expressway via the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway. This corridor will facilitate direct access for vehicles from Jammu & Kashmir and Punjab to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway and the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport, improving long-distance travel efficiency. The estimated cost of this link is Rs 25 billion.

Another key proposal involves a 17 km connection between UER-II near Alipur and Tronica City. This route will pass close to the under-construction Delhi-Dehradun Expressway, enhancing movement for vehicles traveling from Rajasthan and Haryana towards Dehradun. Additionally, the link is expected to alleviate congestion on Delhi’s Ring Road by providing an alternate passage for intercity traffic.

The third project involves a 35 km corridor designed as a bypass for East Delhi. This route will directly link the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway with Noida, offering a streamlined travel option for commuters from northern, northwestern, and southwestern Delhi. These road links aim to enhance regional connectivity, reduce travel time, and ease congestion on existing road networks.
