Property in Hardoi

The Uttar Pradesh government on January 29 gave its approval for the construction of the Ganga Expressway, a project which was first announced in 2007. The 600-km, six-lane expressway, which is aimed at providing fast road connectivity between western and eastern UP, is touted to be the world’s longest, once completed. This expansive project will cover 6,550 acre of land and will be constructed by the state government at a cost of Rs 36,000 crore. The expressway will also be equipped to act as an emergency airstrip, too.

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.

Three years from now, state-owned NBCC plans to deliver all Jaypee projects. For this, Mumbai-based Suraksha Group has made an offer of Rs 20 crore as upfront payment and land which is worth Rs 5,000 crore. The decision was taken at a meeting convened by the NBCC on March 11 that was attended by over 300 homebuyers.
