Industrialist's opinion on Ganga Expressway
Santosh Aggarwal, Executive Director and CFO, Alpha Corp Development Limited, said about the Ganga Expressway, the inauguration of the Ganga Expressway is an important achievement in the infrastructure development of Uttar Pradesh. An estimated investment of about ₹36,000 crore has been made on this approximately 594 km long corridor, which will be able to reduce the travel time between Meerut and Prayagraj to about 56 hours. This expressway passing through 12 districts will open new development opportunities in many emerging micro-markets.
Historically, such large-scale connectivity has driven real estate development, increasing both end-user demand and capital values. Additionally, Meerut is expected to witness a massive uptick in residential and commercial activity, positioning it as a major 'satellite hub' within the state's expanding economic landscape. Overall, this expressway is set to reshape the real estate landscape of the state and firmly place the region on the national investment map.
Sharing his views, Manish Mathur, CEO-Cranes, ACE (Action Construction Equipment Limited) said, “The scale of the Ganga Expressway reflects India's ambition for next generation road infrastructure, with a focus on speed, efficiency and technology integration.
