Delhi Dehradun Expressway: The Delhi Dehradun Expressway is all set to be inaugurated in the month of February 2026. Once fully operational, the 210-kilometre corridor would reduce travel time between Delhi and Uttarakhand’s Dehradun to just 2.5 hours from the existing 6-7 hours.
The Expressway starts near Akshardham in Delhi. A large portion of the expressway is designed starting near Geeta Colony in Delhi as an elevated corridor. The expressway’s first toll plaza would be located in Loni where highway patrol units and ambulance services would be stationed. Users can access help via the highway helpline number 1033.
DON'T MISS
The Delhi Dehradun Expressway would pass through Delhi, Baghpat, Shamli, Muzzafarnagar and Saharanpur before it enters Uttarakhand. A dedicated link at Baghpat would connect the Delhi Dehradun Expressway to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway. The highway would be classified as a greenfield corridor beyond Baghpat.
Delhi Dehradun Expressway: Toll Plaza Fees
The maximum speed limit would be set to 80 kilometres per hour for trucks and 100 kilometres per hour for cars. Commuters can cross 4 toll plazas by paying a fee of just Rs. 60 with a FASTag annual pass. Without the FASTag annual pass, the cost would be around Rs. 500.
How Baghpat And Shamli Residents Will Benefit?
The expressway would benefit Baghpat and Shamli residents in countless ways. For instance, it would boost the growth and development of industries such as factories, warehouses, distribution centres and manufacturing units across strategic locations. It would also help in attracting thousands of retailers from Delhi NCR to expand their base in Baghpat and Shamli.
It would also help investors looking for investment avenues to purchase plots and other regional properties.
The expressway would also benefit villages such as Kashmabad Urf Dudbha, Alawalpur, Mukarampur, Katha, Kamrudin Nagar, Fugana, Rajpur Chhajpur, Kasampur, Khiyawadi, Halgoya Mushtakam, Baduli Naya Gaon, Nainsob Mushtakam, Rasoolpur Kheri Ahtmal and Jainpur Mushtakam.
