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.
