Dwarka Expressway Set to Launch in 3-4 Months: Watch Video of Grand Development | Gadkari’s Remark

Union Minister of Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has shared a video of the Dwarka Expressway, connecting Delhi and Haryana, applauding its engineering marvel. Gadkari mentioned that this expressway will commence within 3-4 months and encouraged people to visit and witness the remarkable project that has been crafted as a true work of art. This extraordinary state-of-the-art project, not forgettable for a century, spans 563 kilometers and is India’s first-ever elevated expressway built with modern technology. It showcases the plantation of 1200 trees, setting a precedent for ecological sustainability.

Certainly, here’s a concise version of the information in five points:

1. Dwarka Expressway will cut travel time from Dwarka to Manesar to 15 minutes. The journey from Manesar to Indira Gandhi International Airport takes 20 minutes, and Manesar to Singhu border now takes only 45 minutes.
2. Constructed with 200,000 tonnes of steel, equivalent to 30 times the Eiffel Tower’s steel, the Dwarka Expressway also utilized 2 million cubic meters of cement concrete—six times the amount used for Dubai’s Burj Khalifa, making it a colossal engineering feat.
3. Stretching from NH 48 (old NH 8) at Shiv Murti in Delhi (20-km mark) to Kherki Daula Toll Plaza near Gurugram (40-km mark), the Dwarka Expressway is designed to alleviate traffic on the Delhi-Gurugram Expressway, providing an alternative road connection between the national capital and Gurugram.
4. Upon operation, this expressway will be India’s inaugural eight-lane elevated road, spanning a total of 563 kilometers, divided into four lanes.
5. Notably, during the expressway’s construction, approximately 1,200 trees were transplanted—a pioneering step in India’s context. Additionally, the project integrates the nation’s first 8-lane, 3.6-kilometer urban tunnel as part of the Dwarka Expressway.
