Union minister of road transport and highways Nitin Gadkari on Sunday said that a six-lane highway is being developed to connect Noida, Faridabad and other NCR-cities with the Delhi-Mumbai expressway, thus reducing the travel time from Noida to expressway by three-four hours.
While sharing the images of the new 50 km long highway on Twitter, the minister said, “As part of the Bharatmala Pariyojana, a 6-Lane highway is being developed from Jaitpur-Pushta Road to the junction near the Kundli–Manesar–Palwal (KMP) Expressway section of National Highway 148. This 50 km long stretch will connect Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, and Haryana, encompassing Noida, Faridabad, Ballabhgarh, and Palwal”.
The project, which is expected to cost ₹2,627 crore, will reduce the travel time from Noida and Delhi to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway by approximately three-four hours.
