The three proposed link corridors are a ~20 km link connecting UER-II to the Delhi-Amritsar-Katra Expressway, a ~17 km UER-II-Tronica City link, and a ~35 km corridor connecting the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway to Noida.
The 35-kilometer long corridor will directly connect the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway near Akshardham to Noida and the Gautam Buddh Nagar area, bypassing densely congested routes like Ring Road, ITO, and the DND Flyway to reduce a two-hour journey down to 30 to 35 minutes.
The second project is an approximately 17-kilometer long, 6-lane access-controlled greenfield expressway with an estimated cost of around 3,500 crore rupees. It will extend from UER-II near Alipur, cross the Yamuna via a new bridge, and connect with NH-709B in the Agnaula-Mandola area of Tronica City near Loni.
