DelhiāJaipur Highway or NH48 [1] [2] is a 242-kilometre-long (150 mi), eight-lane, Highway, connecting Delhi with Jaipur in India. [3] It starts from Kherki Toll Plaza in Gurugram and terminate near Daulatpura Toll Plaza at Jaipur. [4]
Several Industrial Model Township(IMT) were developed along the highway in 1990's, four in Haryana at Manesar, Pataudi, Bawal and Dharuhera Industrial estate, and five in Rajasthan at Bhiwadi, Behror, Kotputli, Shahapura and Chomu. [5] [6]
History
It was widened in 2007 as a National Highway passing through 423 villages of 11 tehsils in 7 districts of Haryana and Rajasthan. [7] The total land required for the project was 1,755.9 hectares (4,339 acres). [8] The cost includes ā¹6,350 crores for civil works, ā¹5,000 crores for resettlement and rehabilitation of affected individuals, [9] and ā¹50.60 crores for environment budget.
In 2006ā07, the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways of the UPA government planned to construct a new greenfield expressway of 195kms. [10] In 2011, detailed project planning commenced. [11] In 2012, Haryana and Rajasthan Governments approved the proposed alignment. [12]
In 2015, the new Highway Minister Nitin Gadkari expedited ā¹32,800 crores stalled project, [13] by revising the alignment so that the expressway starts from Kherki Dhaula Toll Plaza instead of originally planned point of origin at Indira Gandhi International Airport. [8]
In 2023, The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has started work on a new greenfield "super expressway" between Delhi and Jaipur also known as Delhi-Jaipur Super Expressway that will reduce the distance between the two cities by around 40 km. The 8 lane on each carriageway (expandable to 16 lanes) Delhi-Jaipur super expressway has been numbered as NH 352B. The entire greenfield section of 195kms will start from Dwarka Expressway in New Gurgaon, go via IMT Bawal and end in Chandwaji, Rajasthan.
