The Union Government on Wednesday announced successful completion of 66.916-km-long, four-laned Greenfield Bandikui Spur, constructed at a cost of Rs 2,016 crore. Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari said this strategically significant project provides direct, access-controlled connectivity between the Delhi-Vadodara Expressway and Jaipur, addressing the lack of a direct route that previously compelled commuters to take longer, fuel-intensive journeys. “The new spur is expected to reduce travel time between Delhi and Jaipur from 3 hours 45 minutes to just 3 hours, significantly improving mobility and easing congestion on NH-48 and NH-21,” Gadkari said.
