Officials said the proposed corridor will be 7.8 km long and will significantly reduce travel time to the upcoming airport, which is expected to emerge as one of the country’s largest aviation hubs.

The elevated road will also intersect with several major transport networks, including the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, Yamuna Expressway, and the Dedicated Freight Corridor (DFC). Authorities believe this integration will enhance both passenger and cargo movement across the region.

According to officials, the corridor will particularly benefit residents and businesses in Faridabad, Gurugram and nearby areas of Haryana, offering faster connectivity to the airport once it becomes operational.

Infrastructure experts say the project will also support economic activity along the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor and adjoining industrial zones by improving logistics efficiency and mobility.

With the Union Cabinet’s approval now in place, the project will move to the next stage of detailed planning and tendering before construction begins.

Officials expect the corridor to play a key role in strengthening connectivity between Haryana and the new airport, while also easing pressure on existing road networks in the NCR.
