Yeida to Develop 35 km Green Belt along Yamuna Expressway

The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (Yeida) announced its decision to develop a 35-kilometre-long and 100-metre-wide green belt from Galgotia University to Noida International Airport along the Yamuna Expressway. The initiative, aimed at providing a family-friendly recreational space, is expected to cost Rs 7 billion.

Yeida plans to issue a global tender to select an agency for executing the project. The development will include ponds, lakes, water bodies, fountains, and theme-based parks, with the goal of transforming the area into a world-class green zone and giving Yamuna City a distinct identity. The completed green belt is expected to serve as a major attraction in the region.

Currently, there is no iconic landmark or gateway that internationally identifies Yamuna City as a distinct urban centre, separate from Noida and Greater Noida. Yeida has notified around 250,000 hectares of land along the 165-kilometre Yamuna Expressway, of which 20,000 hectares have already been acquired. An additional 60,000 hectares will be acquired as Yamuna City reaches full development capacity.

Authorities believe that many people outside the district still associate the area beyond the Formula One circuit with Noida or Greater Noida, as Yamuna City has yet to establish its own identity. The green belt is intended to address this by gradually shaping the city’s image.

To enhance the city's aesthetics, a 100-metre-wide green belt will be established between the 60-metre road connecting the Yamuna Expressway and the yet-to-be-developed city sectors. Plans include planting unique and visually appealing trees, landscaping, and creating attractive water features and miniatures of India’s traditional and religious landmarks along the entire 35-kilometre stretch.

Major city intersections will be lit with colourful lights, and dining facilities will be developed to showcase the culture of the state and country to visitors. The project will also feature miniatures of historical monuments such as the Taj Mahal and Qutub Minar, along with representations of religious sites including the Ram Temple and the four Dhams, offering pedestrians an experience of an international-standard city.
