Delhi–Meerut Expressway ((ヒンディー語:दिल्ली-मेरठ एक्सप्रेस वे)) is a planned controlled-access expressway, connecting Delhi with Meerut via Dasna in Ghaziabad in India. While the present stretch of National Highway 24 (NH-24) up to Uttar Pradesh Gate will be widened to 14 lanes from the present eight, the road between UP Gate and Dasna will be eight-laned. The next phase of the expressway will be built on a new alignment from Dasna to Meerut—a six-lane stretch joining Meerut bypass.The stretch between Nizamuddin Bridge and Dasna is one of the most congested in the NCR. The traffic flow is likely to increase considering dozens of new residential projects coming up along this stretch of NH-24. The total project cost is . On 2 August 2015, after years of waiting, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has floated tenders for a 14-lane road on the critical section of NH-24—from Nizamuddin Bridge to Dasna (28km)—a move which is expected to ease massive congestion on the stretch. The 22-km stretch of the Dasna-Hapur portion of the highway would be widened to six lanes. ==History== On 18 November 2013, it was confirmed that center not Uttar Pradesh government will build the much delayed Delhi–Meerut Expressway starting from Nizamuddin Bridge on Ring Road. Once complete, commuters will be able to reach Meerut in 45 to 60 minutes and cut travel time to Haridwar and Dehradun by almost an hour.〔 The Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) under the Narendra Modi government approved the Delhi–Meerut Expressway with construction of connected roads to be undertaken.
