The development will be conducted in two phases using Engineering, Procurement, and Construction (EPC) methods, with a total investment of Rs 325.54 crore. The contractor agency is tasked with completing all construction and development work within 18 months.
Following Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s vision, the UPSIDA will develop 483 acres of land in Salempur as an industrial area. This area may be expanded further if needed.

According to the master plan, the development will include road construction, a potable water supply network, a rising main network, bore well development, a recycled water supply network, a domestic sewage collection network, a solid waste treatment plant, and a CETP network for industrial waste collection and transportation.
