NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on March 11 inaugurated the Haryana section of India’s inaugural 8-lane segment of the Dwarka Expressway, spanning 19 km and constructed at a cost of Rs 4,100 crore. It aims to improve traffic flow and ease congestion between Delhi and Gurugram on the National Highway (NH)-48.
This segment encompasses a 10.2 km stretch from the Delhi-Haryana Border to Basai Rail-over-Bridge (ROB) and an 8.7 km section from Basai ROB to Kherki Daula. The road will connect directly between the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport in Delhi and the Gurugram Bypass.
“Today is an important day for connectivity across India. At around 12 noon today, 112 National Highways, spread across different states, will be dedicated to the nation or their foundation stones would be laid. The Haryana Section of Dwarka Expressway will be inaugurated. These projects will boost economic growth and are also in line with our efforts to build next-generation infrastructure,” PM Modi wrote on X, sharing pictures of the Dwarka Expressway just before the inauguration.
