Flats for sale in Agra Lucknow Expressway Agra

Running across 10 districts, 236 villages and 3,500 hectares of land, the expressway will connect to the famous Yamuna Expressway via the Agra Ring Road.

The Agra Lucknow Expressway opens for public use from December 23, and will be connecting national capital via the Yamuna Expressway. As the travel time will be reduced to six hours from 10 at present, the expressway will be acting as a catalyst for the Noida real estate market. This is expected to impact Noida realty as investors from small cities of Shikohabad, Firozabad, Etawah, Kannauj, Kanpur and Unnao have started showing interest in areas close to expressways.

The election agenda of now UP CM Akhilesh Yadav has a close connect with the state's infrastructural scenario. The leader is looking forward to implementing three promising greenfield expressways in the state including an expressway in Bundelkhand, the Bijnor-Moradabad-Fatehgarh Expressway and the Greater Noida-Muzaffarnagar Expressway. All three projects will be supervised and executed by Uttar Pradesh Expressways Industrial Development Authority. These expressway projects will be developed on the lines of the popular Agra-Lucknow Expressway and Lucknow-Ghazipur Expressway.

The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority has signed pacts with as many as 28 private players who promised to invest as much as Rs 10,074 crore in the region. To make sure investment promises do not go to cold storage, the agency will soon start the process to allocate land to these companies to set industrial units in the region. If all the companies set their units in the region, 28,000 new jobs will be created, apart from five lakh indirect jobs. This could give a major boost to real estate in the region.

Noida and Ghaziabad crossed the 300 mark as particulate matter-10 (PM10) levels touched a high on March 28. The situation was likely to prevail in the days to come, said experts.  According to another report by the Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board, six cities in India’s most populous state have nearly four times the PM10 level against the permissible limit. In this list of 24 cities where an air quality check was conducted in February, Ghaziabad leads this pack while Lucknow and Kanpur are listed at the second and third place, respectively.  Noida occupies the fourth place.
