Delhi Dehradun Expressway: Prime Minister Narendra Modi opened the long-awaited Delhi-Dehradun Motorway. This is a big step forward for India’s infrastructure. The road has cut the time it takes to get from Delhi to Dehradun from more than six hours to about two and a half hours (150 minutes). This step makes travel faster and easier.
Information about the route and how to get there
The highway goes through important places like Baghpat, Shamli, and Saharanpur before ending in Dehradun. It starts close to the Akshardham temple. It’s about 210 kilometres long. The new road would make it easier for pilgrims and tourists to get there because it cuts the old 250 km trip in half and connects to Haridwar and the Char Dham highway.
