India is considering a 28km expressway connecting the south of Indira Gandhi Airport in Delhi to Daulapura on National Highway-8.
The project, which hopes to ease traffic on NH-8 that connects Gurgaon and Jaipur, is estimated to cost more than US$5 billion, according to a report in the Business Standard.
The NH-8 connects New Delhi, the federal capital, with Mumbai, on India’s western coast.
The expressway is expected to pass through 2,800 hectares and cost nearly $2.8 billion for land acquisition. Meanwhile, the Road Transport and Highways Ministry said that the six-lane upgrade of NH-8 will be open in December.
