MoRTH unveils new road link to Jewar International Airport
Union transport minister Nitin Gadkari has informed that his ministry will take up the construction work for a greenfield road project linking the upcoming Jewar airport in Uttar Pradesh to cater to the future needs of travellers. The new link will connect the upcoming Delhi-Mumbai Expressway at Ballabhgarh to the airport. The work on the new link from Delhi to Dehradun via Baghpat and Saharanpur is being expedited on a fast-track basis. The minister has urged the UP Government to fast-track the land acquisition process. The expenses for the construction of this link will be borne by the transport ministry and the construction of this access-controlled corridor will be completed by 2024 to provide faster connectivity to the airport. It will be around 30 km long wherein nearly 80% of the stretch will fall in Haryana and the rest will be in UP. The NHAI has already awarded the work for extending the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway from Sohna to DND flyway via Ballabhgarh. The Delhi-Dehradun link will reduce the distance between the national capital and the capital of Uttarakhand. The NHAI has already received bids for the first two packages of this project, Akshardham to Delhi Border and Delhi Border to Eastern Peripheral Expressway intersection in Baghpat and the land acquisition for another 118 km of this stretch is at an advanced stage. The processes are being expedited for the award of works of the remaining portions. This stretch from Akshardham to Delhi will be of 210 km and access-controlled.
