Delhi to Jaipur in 3.5 hrs, to Mumbai 12 hrs after opening of Delhi-Mumbai Expressway stretch
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will Sunday inaugurate the Delhi-Dausa-Lalsot section of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway developed at a cost of 12,150 crore.
This new section will slash the travel time from Delhi to Jaipur from 5hrs to nearly 3.5 hrs.
The expressway will pass through six states of Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat and Maharashtra and connect major cities like Kota, Indore, Jaipur, Bhopal, Vadodara and Surat.
The expressway is also India’s longest and is expected to reduce the distance between Delhi and Mumbai by 180 kms and the travel time by 12 hours.
The Expressway will also serve 93 PM Gati Shakti Economic Nodes, 13 Ports, 8 Major Airports and 8 multi-modal logistics parks (MMLPs) along with spurs to new upcoming greenfield airports such as Jewar Airport, Navi Mumbai Airport and JNPT port.
The Expressway will have a catalytic impact in the developmental trajectory of all adjoining regions, thus contributing in a major way in the economic transformation of the country.
