The first phase of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway has been launched, which is expected to significantly reduce travel time between Delhi and Jaipur. The new expressway will slash the travel time between the two cities by two hours, providing a faster and more efficient mode of transportation for travelers.
The Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is a 1,300 km long project that aims to connect the national capital with India’s financial capital, Mumbai. The project is being developed in phases, with the first phase covering a distance of 650 km between Delhi and Mumbai.
The Delhi Mumbai Expressway’s 246 km Delhi – Dausa – Lalsot stretch was built for more than Rs 18,100 crore. The operationalisation of this segment would significantly speed up regional economic growth and cut the distance between Delhi and Jaipur’s airport from five to around three hours.
The first phase of the project was launched recently, which includes a 360 km stretch between Delhi and Jaipur. The new expressway has six lanes, and it is expected to reduce travel time between the two cities from six hours to just four hours.
The expressway is expected to bring significant benefits to travelers, including faster and smoother travel, reduced traffic congestion, and increased safety. The new road is also expected to boost economic growth and development, as it will provide a more efficient mode of transportation for goods and services.
“I take great pride in dedicating the first phase of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway to the nation today. The Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is one of the largest and most modern expressways. It presents the developed face of India. I congratulate the residents of Dausa and the countrymen,” said the PM at the Inauguration
The project is part of the government’s efforts to improve infrastructure and connectivity in the country. The Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is one of several mega-infrastructure projects that the government is developing to improve connectivity and promote economic growth.
In conclusion, the launch of the first phase of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is a significant milestone in India’s infrastructure development. The new expressway will provide faster and more efficient travel between Delhi and Jaipur, reducing travel time by two hours. The project is expected to bring significant benefits to travelers, businesses, and the economy as a whole, and it is a positive step towards improving infrastructure and connectivity in India.
