The Haryana government is reportedly planning to connect the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway with the under-construction Global City project to boost the regional connectivity. The officials stated that the construction of a link road will provide convenience to the residents of several regions by cutting the travel time significantly and reducing the traffic congestion. They further stated that a 60-meter-wide road has been proposed to the government for the construction of the road connecting the expressway to the much-awaited city. Earlier last month, the state government had announced that several new projects will be announced in the upcoming few months to boost the connectivity.

While providing details, a Gurugram Metropolitan Region Development Authority (GMDA) official stated that required lands for the project fall in two villages—Khandsa and Mohammadpur Jharsa. He further stated that the road will improve connectivity and will also give a boost to the financial activities in the region.

"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," he added.
