The Uttar Pradesh government is ramping up efforts to develop and upgrade road networks leading to the new Noida International Airport in Jewar, ensuring seamless and sustainable connectivity with the National Capital Region (NCR).

Among the flagship projects is a six-lane, access-controlled expressway connecting the airport with Greater Noida and eventually linking to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway. Another crucial stretch involves improving village roads that will offer last-mile connectivity to nearby towns and peri-urban clusters. The intent is to design a multimodal and inclusive ecosystem that prioritises sustainability without displacing local communities. The Noida airport is envisioned as India’s first net-zero emissions airport. Its connectivity plan, therefore, is heavily focused on reducing vehicular congestion and promoting cleaner mobility. The upcoming roadways will be built using recycled materials and green construction protocols, in line with the airport’s broader green-building certifications. These steps aim to limit the carbon impact of road infrastructure development while encouraging future-ready design standards.
Officials from YEIDA have noted that the road infrastructure is being designed not merely for speed but for resilience and regional equity. Special attention is being paid to ensuring that the road links benefit surrounding rural economies by improving access to healthcare, education, and markets. This focus on inclusive growth reflects a fundamental shift in how infrastructure is being planned—balancing economic ambition with environmental and social responsibility. Urban planners also point to the long-term benefits of these road projects in shaping a more equitable NCR. By offering alternatives to existing congested corridors, the new routes could decongest Delhi and Noida, reduce travel time dramatically, and shift economic gravity southward towards western UP. This decentralisation is expected to catalyse employment and investment in Tier-II towns along the corridor, aligning with India’s goals of balanced regional growth.
While land acquisition remains a challenge in certain pockets, the administration has pledged fair compensation and transparent rehabilitation processes. Environmental assessments are being fast-tracked, with compensatory afforestation and surface water management as part of compliance. These safeguards are critical as the state positions itself as both a logistics powerhouse and a model for climate-smart urban development. With the airport project gaining momentum, the race to create efficient, green, and socially inclusive connectivity infrastructure is more than a construction feat—it is a litmus test of India’s urban planning aspirations.
