Road, Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari has said that the Dwarka Expressway will be completed by August next year. The total length of this expressway is 29 kilometers. Out of which 18.9 kilometers length falls in Haryana and the remaining 10.1 kilometers in Delhi.

Addressing a press conference after visiting the Dwarka Expressway site today, Mr Gadkari said, the expressway is India's first nine-kilometer long eight-lane flyover on single pier. He said, the Dwarka Expressway is also the first elevated urban expressway in the country.

The Minister said, this will reduce air pollution in Delhi. Mr Gadkari said, this is the first instance where around 12 thousand trees were transplanted at a massive level.

Union Minister and Gurugram MP Rao Inderjit Singh was also present on the occasion.
