Delhi Mumbai Expressway: Dots Get Connected ! Seamless Travel From Delhi to Jaipur From July, Time Reduces Substantially

In a major infrastructural breakthrough, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) is all set to launch a new 67-km-long spur road from the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in mid-July, significantly reducing travel time between Delhi and Jaipur. The newly constructed four-lane access-controlled corridor will connect Bandikui with Jaipur, offering a faster and smoother alternative for commuters.

Delhi-Mumbai Expressway: Dots Get Connected! Seamless Travel From Delhi to Jaipur From July, Time Reduces Substantially

Currently, travelers from Delhi to Jaipur exit the expressway at Bandhrej toll plaza in Rajasthan's Dausa district and continue on the congested Jaipur-Agra highway (NH 44), adding to travel delays. This new spur eliminates the need to take NH 44, offering a direct and streamlined route.

The current 3.5-hour journey is expected to come down to just around 2.5 hours.

Once operational, this link will reduce travel time by nearly an hour and shorten the overall distance by 12 kilometers, making journeys between Delhi, Gurugram, and Jaipur faster and more efficient. As per estimates, the current 3.5-hour journey is expected to come down to just around 2.5 hours.

The new corridor is part of India’s broader effort to build world-class expressway infrastructure, boosting both connectivity and regional development across Delhi, Haryana, and Rajasthan.

The launch of this spur road is expected to ease pressure on NH-44, one of the most heavily congested highways in North India. Commuters and transporters will benefit from reduced fuel consumption and faster deliveries, enhancing logistics efficiency between the national capital and Rajasthan’s capital.

Officials said this development is a strategic addition to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, aimed at improving urban-rural connectivity and promoting tourism and trade. With smoother access to Jaipur, the new link is also expected to attract more investment in the region. Toll plazas, emergency response units, and signages have been strategically planned for commuter convenience and safety.
