That’s right, travel time between Gurugram and Vadodara is about to be cut dramatically to just 10 hours, thanks to the upcoming Delhi-Mumbai Expressway. The journey, which currently takes around 20–22 hours to cover roughly 950 km, will soon be completed in half the time-redefining long-distance road travel in India.
A major highlight of this project is a key tunnel near Kota, which will significantly boost connectivity along the route and streamline traffic flow between the two cities.
Stretching 1,380 km, the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway is India’s longest expressway and is built for high-speed travel, allowing vehicles to move at speeds up to 120 kmph. With a massive investment of ₹95,000 crore, the expressway is poised to transform not only travel but also trade, tourism, and economic development across the six states it traverses—Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, and Maharashtra.
Beyond reducing travel time, the expressway is a model of modern, sustainable infrastructure. According to the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), it features green technologies and eco-friendly construction methods, making it a benchmark for future highway projects in the country.

GreenLine Mobility Solutions Ltd, an Essar Group venture, has secured a $275 million equity investment to accelerate the decarbonisation of India's heavy trucking sector. The funding will support the deployment of over 10,000 LNG and electric trucks, as well as the development of 100 LNG refuelling stations and EV charging points across the country.
Among the investors is Nikhil Kamath, who has committed $20 million, highlighting growing confidence in India’s
green logistics transition. GreenLine currently operates LNG-powered trucks for long-haul transportation and electric vehicles (EVs) for short-haul operations. Its subsidiary, Ultra Gas and Energy Ltd, is building a national network of LNG refuelling infrastructure.
According to the company, the initiative is expected to reduce carbon emissions by 1 million tonnes annually. With India’s transport sector accounting for nearly 15% of total carbon emissions and over 4 million trucks in operation, GreenLine aims to play a key role in transforming the logistics landscape.
The company offers green logistics services at cost parity with traditional diesel trucking, allowing businesses to adopt cleaner solutions without added expense. GreenLine’s efforts align with the Indian government's climate goals, positioning it as a critical player in the shift to sustainable transport.
