Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE) and Phase-I of Delhi Meerut expressway on Sunday, Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Friday.
The Eastern Peripheral Expressway, which was built in 500 days, will relieve Delhi from traffic congestion, helping in reducing pollution in the national Capital significantly.
Addressing the media, Gadkari said 135-km Expressway, built at a cost of around Rs 11,000 crore, will reduce travel time between Kundli and Palwal in Haryana from over four hours to just 72 minutes.
