The Uttar Pradesh government has approved an Rs 8,585.51 crore project to build a 74.5-km, six-lane expressway linking Jewar Airport with the Ganga Expressway, passing through Gautam Buddha Nagar and Bulandshahr districts. This access-controlled route aims to improve connectivity to Jewar Airport from western and central Uttar Pradesh, easing travel around Delhi-NCR.
