Rajasthan is set to unveil a major infrastructure milestone — the Kotputli–Kishangarh Greenfield Expressway, a six-lane modern highway spanning 181 kilometres. This ambitious project is designed to drastically improve road connectivity between Delhi, Jaipur, and central Rajasthan, reducing travel time from five hours to just two. The expressway promises smoother, faster, and safer journeys while opening new economic and tourism opportunities across the region .
Rajasthan’s Kotputli–Kishangarh Greenfield Expressway to cut travel time by three hours, boost Delhi–Jaipur connectivity
The project, covering approximately 1,679 hectares of land, is estimated to cost ₹6,906 crore. Construction is expected to begin in December, with the expressway stretching from NH-48 and NH-448 in Kishangarh to Paniyala (NH-148B) in Kotputli. Standing 15 feet high and 100 metres wide, the new road will pass through key towns and pilgrimage sites including Khatu Shyam Ji, Makrana, Nawa, Kuchaman City, and Kishangarh — bringing religious, cultural, and commercial regions closer than ever before.
The new corridor is expected to benefit farmers
Once completed, the expressway will significantly ease traffic congestion on existing highways while cutting fuel consumption and travel costs. It will also offer devotees visiting Khatu Shyam Ji temple a seamless, comfortable journey. The new corridor is expected to benefit farmers, traders, and industrial hubs across the marble and small-scale manufacturing towns of Makrana and Kishangarh by providing faster logistics and delivery routes.
The Kotputli–Kishangarh Expressway is part of the central government’s larger plan to develop nine Greenfield expressways across India, aimed at strengthening regional connectivity and accelerating economic growth. Other proposed corridors in Rajasthan include the Jaipur–Bhilwara (193 km), Bikaner–Kotputli (295 km), and Beawar–Bharatpur (342 km) routes.
Officials believe the project will not only boost interstate commerce but also attract more tourists and spiritual travellers, making Rajasthan’s heartland more accessible. For road-trip lovers, the expressway promises a blend of speed, scenery, and smoother travel — making journeys across the desert state more memorable than ever before.
