As per PIB August release, foundation stones were laid for four flyovers and nine foot over bridges along the Gurgaon-Kotputli-Jaipur section of NH-48, along with other engineering works. The project was estimated to cost Rs 282 crore.
The works were aimed at offering safer and smoother journeys for commuters in Gurgaon, Rewari and surrounding areas.
The goal was to address issues including traffic congestion, road safety and waterlogging along the NH-48 corridor from Kherki Daula towards the Haryana-Rajasthan border.
More connectivity upgrades around Gurugram
Another major project is likely to enhance connectivity for traffic travelling to and from Gurugram. In July 2026, the Union Cabinet sanctioned an 8.1 km, six-lane road tunnel interlinking Dwarka Expressway with Nelson Mandela Marg in Vasant Kunj, Delhi at a capital cost of Rs 6,969.67 crore, as per PIB.
The government stated that the project is likely to enhance connectivity between West and South Delhi and benefit traffic travelling from Gurugram, Dwarka, IGI Airport and West Delhi towards South Delhi.
