The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has big plans to invest Rs 14,000 crore over the next five years to purchase 6,065 hectares of land near the upcoming Noida International Airport. This land will be used to develop urban hubs, industrial hubs, public amenities, and a logistics hub, attracting further investment in the region.
The expressway has been engineered for rapid transit and operational efficiency, effectively linking Pari Chowk in Noida to Kuberpur in Agra along NH-2. By bypassing NH-8, it has significantly reduced travel time between Delhi and Agra to just two-and-a-half hours. The well-structured infrastructure of the expressway has also alleviated congestion on the eastern side of the Yamuna, including the older GT Road and National Highway 2.
The expressway's connectivity is not just limited to Agra; it is also connected to the 302 km Agra-Lucknow Expressway via the inner Agra Ring Road, providing a direct route to Lucknow. This enhanced connectivity has not only improved travel experiences but also facilitated the efficient movement of goods for trade and commerce.
