New Fast Trucking Route Launched on Delhi–Jaipur Corridor

By Amit Jangra | Published Date : July 29, 2025

A new Delhi–Jaipur highway link cuts travel time by 45 minutes, boosting truck transport, trade and regional connectivity.

If you have ever made the trip from Delhi to Jaipur in a loaded truck, you probably remember more brake lights than roads. It’s not exactly a smooth ride—until now. A new highway spur, almost 67 kilometers long, is finally done and it’s going to change the game.

Built by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), this four-lane connector links Jaipur straight to the Delhi–Vadodara Expressway. The project cost a whopping ₹2,016 crore, but for anyone driving Tata trucks or Ashok Leyland trucks—especially the big 12 or 10-tyre truck haulers—it’s going to save real time and real money.

Well, for starters, this new road shaves 12 km off the journey. It's not just about distance—it’s about less congestion and less stress. Earlier, everyone had to squeeze through NH-48 and NH-21. That meant long queues, especially during peak hours.

Now? The new spur begins at Bandikui and leads straight to Jaipur. It’s part of a bigger plan to improve Delhi–Mumbai corridor connectivity.

Why Truck Owners Should Care

Let’s be honest—when you're driving a fully loaded 12-tyre truck through traffic jams, every extra minute costs money. Fuel, time, driver fatigue—it all adds up.

This new road is going to:

→ Reduce delivery delays
→ Save on diesel
→ Cut maintenance costs caused by stop-and-go traffic

And it’s not just about trucking. The benefits are going to ripple out to agriculture, tourism and trade too.

What’s in It for Everyone Else?

Tourists headed to Jaipur to visit Hawa Mahal or Amer Fort can now get there faster. Farmers can send fruits and veggies to Delhi markets before they spoil. And businesses in Rajasthan finally get a smoother, faster link to the national capital and beyond.

Pradeep Atri from NHAI summed it up well:

“People can now reach Jaipur from Delhi in just over three hours. That’s a huge improvement and a big relief for daily commuters and transporters.”

Road Still Closed? Not for Long

Right now, the highway is in its final safety check phase. Once that’s cleared, it's open season for trucks and cars alike.

It’s all part of India’s big push for smarter roads under the Bharatmala Pariyojana and Gati Shakti plans. The government’s vision? High-speed connections between major cities—and this is one more piece of that puzzle.
