In a newest move, the transport ministry has decided to build Gurugram-Mumbai greenfield expressway project directly linking Delhi at an investment of ₹2,000 crore, official sources said, claiming that a new eight-lane road would be built connecting the Western Peripheral Expressway (WPE) with the DND Flyway in Delhi. The Mumbai expressway will meet the WPE near Sohna and that the connecting road from WPE to DND would be about 58 km. Land acquisition process has already been initiated. About 3 Lakh vehicles daily take the NH-8, which connects Delhi with Mumbai. The new link will decongest this highway and will also help reduce traffic congestion in Delhi. In April, highways minister Nitin Gadkari had announced the mega Delhi-Mumbai greenfield project through backward regions of Mewat in Haryana and Dahod in Gujarat and subsequently Gurugram was designated as the takeoff point for the expressway and now, with the plan to extend the road to the national capital, it will be a complete stretch from Delhi to Mumbai, said ministry sources.
