Government approval pending, 32-km FNG e-way project yet to start

Announced in 2018, the work on the FNG expressway, which will connect Faridabad directly with Noida and Ghaziabad, is yet to start because the approval from the state government has not been received.

Recently, the National Capital Region Planning Board accorded in-principle approval to the project. “An alignment draft of the tentative route has been submitted to the higher authorities. We are awaiting the nod of the CM’s Office,” an official of the Public Works Department (PWD) said. The expressway is expected to be 32-km long, of which 9 km will be in Faridabad district. The remaining project will pass through Gautam Buddh Nagar district in UP. The expressway will also be connected with the under-construction Delhi-Mumbai expressway.
