The Delhi-Vadodara segment will account for half the amount of Rs. 90,000 crore Delhi-Mumbai Expressway project, while the remaining half will be spent on Vadodara-Mumbai section.
The proposed outlay of nearly 50 per cent of the project cost for the Mumbai-Vadodara is significant as the distance to be covered is shorter than the Delhi-Vadodara section.
The Delhi-Vadodara stretch is being taken up in five phases at a cost of Rs. 45,000 crore, for which bids have been invited and are at various stages of finalisation, according to an official release.
