Paving the way for seamless connectivity to and from the upcoming Noida International Airport (NIA), Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath has approved an additional almost INR 49 crore for a key road project. The DND-Faridabad-Ballabhgarh Bypass Link Road will link the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway to the upcoming airport at Jewar, Greater Noida. “The state (UP) government has approved an additional INR 48.6 crore in view of the provision made for the difference in the re-fixed rate for land (required for) the project,” the state government said in a statement.
“The difference in land valuation for the DND-Faridabad-Ballabhgarh Bypass Link Road, connecting the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway and the Jewar Airport, has been determined at INR 3,100 per square meter. The state government has issued administrative and financial approval of INR 48.6 crore based on this rate for the purpose,” it added. The director of the state’s civil aviation department will be “responsible for monitoring the quality of work, standards, and related factors.”
“The Yogi government aims to make the Jewar Airport fully operational by mid-2024. Therefore, in coordination with industrial development committees and the civil aviation department, the plans are progressing consistently,” the statement added.
