Haryana govt plans to link Global City with Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway
The Haryana government is planning to construct a road connecting the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway with the under construction Global City project coming up over 1,000 acres of land on Pataudi Road in Gurugram Sector 36, officials said on Friday.
A senior Gurugram Metropolitan Region Development Authority (GMDA) official said that a 60-metre-wide road has been proposed along the newly constructed drain in Narsingpur to connect the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway with the Global City project, which has access from Pataudi Road and the Dwarka Expressway.
'The land required for the road falls in Khandsa and Mohammadpur Jharsa villages — some of it privately owned and under litigation and some of it is owned by the Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation (HSIIDC). The Global City project is a high priority project of the Haryana government and giving it access through the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway will further improve access to this residential and commercial project,' said a senior GMDA official, requesting anonymity.
The Global City project is being developed by the HSIIDC over 1,000 acres across Gurugram sectors 36, 36B, 37 and 37B. It is a mixed land use project with approximately 12 million sqm of built-up area. It will have commercial towers, offices, residential towers, retail spaces, hospitals, schools, center for innovation, start-ups, incubation zone, hospitality and cultural zones, exhibition cum convention center (ECC) green and open spaces, and water bodies.
Next week, the proposed road project will be discussed in detail under the first district coordination committee meeting, which will be chaired by DS Dhesi, principal advisor, urban development Haryana government. Apart from this project, several other local projects will also be discussed in this meeting.
The 60-metre road will be constructed along the Kuccha drain, which was built to link the low-lying area in Narsingpur with the Badshahpur drain.
The Haryana government is developing the first phase of Global City on 587 acres in which the trunk infrastructure is being built, said officials. The first phase includes construction of 13km of internal roads, landscape across 82 acres, 26km of storm water drainage infrastructure, 11.96km of potable water infrastructure, a 12km recycled water pipeline, and a 10km utility tunnel. Work on phase 1 is expected to be completed by December 2026.

Space & infrastructure constraints: GMDA turns down reversal track plan near Millennium City Centre metro station for new corridor
Gurgaon: GMDA has turned down a request by Gurugram Metro Rail Limited (GMRL) to widen the central median on Vyapar Kendra Road for the construction of a rear reversal metro track, citing space constraints and the presence of high-tension power infrastructure. GMRL had sought modifications in the road design of a 350m-long stretch to accommodate the track planned behind the proposed Millennium City Centre metro station. In a letter written earlier this week, GMDA stated that widening work on the road which has a 0.5-metre central verge was already underway, and expanding the verge to 2.5 metres, as sought by GMRL, was not possible. Further, GMRL was advised to plan the metro route along the utility corridor. "The road widening project is already underway, and it is not feasible to widen the central verge beyond 0.5m given the site constraint. We have asked GMRL to plan their route along the service area as discussed earlier," a GMDA official said. The reversal track is a crucial infrastructure element at terminal stations, enabling trains to turn around without obstructing mainline movement. GMRL had argued that increasing the median width would help avoid the costly and disruptive relocation of three 66kV high-tension towers and allow the agency to save nearly 100 trees that fall within the proposed alignment. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo When contacted, a GMRL official said such hindrances were part of large infrastructure projects.

Land hurdles cleared, two more Southern Peripheral Road links set for completion
Gurgaon: In a relief to thousands of commuters in new sectors along Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), GMDA has moved forward on two long-pending stretches — one between sectors 71 and 73 and another between sectors 62 and 65 — that remained incomplete for years due to land hurdles. After receiving the possession of a 5.9-acre land parcel earlier this month, the authority is now set to take up construction of a 350m stretch between sectors 71 and 73, which is estimated to cost Rs 2.22 crore. Though the master road in the area was laid in 2021, this unfinished patch continued as a hurdle in connectivity, forcing commuters to take long detours. Now, clearance of land has paved the way not only for the construction of roads, but also for utility services like master water storm drain, and sewerage network in the area, officials said. Alongside this, the authority is also working on a 170-metre missing link between sectors 62 and 65. This project too, with an estimated cost of Rs 1 crore, was in limbo for several years due to land hurdles. "Construction was pending due to land issues. Now that they have been resolved, we can move forward. Tenders will be floated once the estimates are approved," a senior GMDA official said. This comes weeks after GMDA CEO Shyamal Misra directed officials to prepare estimates on clearance of bottlenecks in road links in all sectors. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Fully Loaded 4 BHK apts for 4.49 Cr(All Incl)* in Sec 104 ATS Triumph, Gurgaon Book Now Undo Meanwhile, residents, who long complained of a lack of seamless connectivity, said the development came as a relief.
