The Delhi-Mumbai Expressway will have 3 animals and 5 overpasses with a combined length of 7 km dedicated to unencumbered wildlife movement.
This is going to be the first in Asia and only the second in the world to feature animal overpasses to facilitate the unrestricted movement of wildlife.
The expressway will also include two iconic 8-lane tunnels. one tunnel through Mukundra Wildlife National Park without disturbing the endangered fauna in the region for 4 km and the second 4 km 8 lane- tunnel will pass through the Matheran eco-sensitive zone.
That’s the reason this expressway will be very special and important in India. With the help of this Delhi-Mumbai Expressway without harming any animals, India will be growing fast.
The two sections of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway, the Delhi Dausa – Lalsot section, which is part of the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway and the Vadodara-Ankleshwar Section which connects Vadodara to the economic hub of Bharuch are likely to be opened for traffic by March 2022.
