The Delhi Dehradun Expressway is set to bring a revolutionary change in travel between Delhi and Saharanpur. With its upcoming connection to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, this ambitious infrastructure project will significantly reduce travel time, making the long journey between these regions much faster and smoother. This development is particularly beneficial for the thousands of people who travel daily for work, business, or other purposes.
Delhi Dehradun Expressway to Enhance Travel from Saharanpur
The latest reports confirm that the Delhi Dehradun Expressway will pass through Baghpat on its way to Saharanpur. Under its second phase, approximately 118 kilometers of new road will be constructed. Once the expressway is linked to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, reaching Saharanpur from Delhi will become more convenient than ever.
The Eastern Peripheral Expressway originates from the Akshardham Temple in Delhi and extends to the Baghpat Interchange in Uttar Pradesh. This 32-kilometer stretch will ensure a hassle-free travel experience. Currently, the journey between Delhi and Saharanpur takes several hours due to poor road conditions. However, with the integration of the Delhi Dehradun Expressway and the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, travelers will be able to reach their destination in just 90 minutes.
