The GMDA will spend approximately 120 crores to build a service road and a sewage system on both sides of the high-speed corridor. The Gurugram section of the Dwarka Expressway is almost finished and will be fully operational in early 2023.
Thousands of families in newly developed sectors 81 to 115 benefit from the construction of service roads, and residents have direct access to the main carriageway of the Dwarka Expressway.
18-Month Timeline To Build Dwarka E-Way Service Roads
According to the officials, the land required for the construction of service roads along the Dwarka Expressway is already available with the GMDA. The authority will use approximately 7.5 metres of land on both sides of the Dwarka Expressway, 5.5 metres of which will be used for service roads and other utilities such as sewage and so on.
According to Shweta Sharma, GMDA’s executive engineer, “We have been given administrative permission to construct service roads along the Dwarka Expressway. Within a week, the tender will be issued.” According to the GMDA’s engineering cell, the construction of the service roads is expected to take 18 months from the date of the work order.
The GMDA’s relocation has been praised by residents. Without the secondary roads, the Dwarka Expressway would have been insufficient. The service roads will also aid in the prevention of unapproved development along the expressway.
The HSVP was supposed to build the expressway, but due to delays and obstacles, the Haryana government requested that the project be taken over by the NHAI.
