Dwarka Expressway: Here’s Why India’s First Elevated Highway Is Special

PM Modi inaugurated a key section of the Haryana segment of the Dwarka Expressway on March 11. This particular stretch of the expressway spans from Dwarka (Delhi) to Kherki Daula Toll Plaza (Gurgaon, Haryana). The total length of the Dwarka Expressway is 29 km, with 18.9 km falling within Haryana and the remaining 10.1 km situated in Delhi. This newly opened section of the Dwarka Expressway is poised to make travel between Haryana and Delhi’s IGI Airport more convenient and quicker. The expected travel time on this stretch is approximately 30 minutes. It features numerous underpasses, flyovers, tunnels, and elevated structures. Serving as an alternate route connecting Delhi and Gurgaon, it is anticipated to alleviate traffic congestion on the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway.
