Inauguration of Eastern Peripheral Expressway project Part-4

In order to decongest Delhi, the project of Peripheral Expressways around Delhi, comprising Western Peripheral Expressway (WPE) and Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE) connecting NH-1 and NH-2 from Western and Eastern side of Delhi, has been envisaged with objective to reduce pollution level in Delhi besides not to allow the non-destined traffic inside Delhi which is presently compelled to travel through it in the absence of any such facility. The EPE & WPE constitute one combined project forming a Ring Road around Delhi with a total length of 270km. About 183 Km. length passes through the State of Haryana whereas the remaining about 87Km length passes through the State of UP. The EPE and the WPE commence near Kundli (on NH-1 in Haryana) & terminate/join near Palwal (NH-2 in Haryana). Each of the Project is 135 km. long with Right of Way of 100 mtr. The EPE project was dedicated to the Nation by Hon'ble Prime Minister, Sh. Narendra Modi on 27.05.2018.
