Dwarka expressway (Northern Periphery Road) Gurgaon.

  • Dwarka expressway (Northern Periphery Road) Gurgaon.
  • {{agprofilemodel.currag.ag_started | date:'mediumDate'}}
Dwarka Expressway came to people's imagination in 2007, when Haryana planning bodies announced Master Plan 2021 with Dwarka Expressway, also known as Northern Peripheral Road or NH 248-BB.
There was a frenzy in the market, Licenses were given and dreams were sold in open market by approved master plans like this.

While the brochures and plans sold a paper dream of living on an economic corridor touted to be the next economic powerhouse of NCR, after 13 years of the long struggle for governments, people, and developers - The Dwarka expressway or Northern Periphery road (NH-248-BB) can be summed into below picture taken in August 2020 of one of the Dwarka Expressway sectors which are planned to be the backbone of this tens of billions of dollars per year economic dream of India.

The paper plans of creating millions of jobs, new industries, a strong middle class with rapid urbanization to counter China in the subcontinent are still pretty much on papers.
Never in any parts of the world a project with the potential to catalyze Rs. 89000 Crore/Yr into a growth corridor, with pure habitation and local economic activities, and massive growth potential has seen such a directionless approach in development.

Which we will cover in this research as a systemic blunder of Central and Local agencies working incoherently for more than a decade on a project of such a massive national interest and public purpose.
_Dwarka Expressway came to people's imagination in 2007, when Haryana planning bodies announced Mast
  
2007 - Master plan 2021 notified with Northern periphery road a major growth corridor with SEZ etc planned. Map Notification
This started a flurry of urban development projects launched along the stretch which included around 400 licensed residential and commercial projects ranging in sectors 81-115 a total of 35 residential sectors and a total urban development area of around 4700 acres as per licenses provided by the Department of Two and country Planning Haryana as in 2020. This corridor is a major part of the developmental goals set by planning bodies for these Gurgaon sectors- 
  • 32988 Hectares of land development.
  • Housing about 20 Lacks persons.
  • Creating an economic powerhouse in Delhi NCR region of worth much more than - Rs. 892000000000.00 i.e. Rs. 89 Thousand Crore/Yr considering PCI of 4.46 Lacks of 20,00000 residents and many more in the visiting population, paying tolls, taking the metro connecting Delhi to Manesar.
2008, 2009, 2010  - Haryana government started raising notifications to acquire land and got hit by court cases from New Palam Vihar, Kherki Daula residents, a few factory owners. Also found out many high tension wires and poles along the way and Basai water treatment plant.
Meanwhile, the euphoria continued without any infra in place, investors and common citizens started investing a huge sum of money into these development projects along the Dwarka Expressway Economic Corridor.
 
2011 - Finally tender for Dwarka expressway was floated - DWAY Tender
 
2011 - SEZ plans along Dwarka expressway scraped.
 
2011 - Tender awarded to Indiabulls Constructions Arm. Some earthwork started.
The market was going strong with mostly people changing contracts and making money with leveraged bets.
 
2011 - Courts asked HUDA and litigators to find an amicable solution that started a long series of speculations with HUDA proposing and after a few months litigators rejecting.
 
2012 - After much pressure work resumed on whatever segment available. No signs insight for sector development plans. A lot of back and forth reports on NPV litigation and HUDA providing land in sector 110A, getting rejected.
The market started to crack and started to stagnate with more and more builders delaying projects sighting DWAY delays and no infra.
  
October 2014 - Change in guard, Mr. Manohar Lal Khattar assumed office.
Real estate markets languished due to macroeconomic factors, too much wait time, and angry investors. Many projects were almost ready increasing dissent among long term investors and end-users.
 
January 2017 - Haryana Government assured the development of the Dwarka Expressway Corridor by the end of 2019. And reiterated the resolve to also build the metro line on this corridor.
 
April 2018 - Dwarka Expressway Inaugurated by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways with Mr. Nitin Gadkari stated the work to begin quickly with Rs. 7000 Crores of investment.
Consecutively Ministry of Roads Transport and highway released the vision document for the Dwarka Expressway - MORTH Annual Report English_2018-19
The development of this important corridor of growth is happening at a very slow pace, being wiped out in monsoon and then picked up the following year. and even after 13 years of planning and vision document released, the area is still seeing apathy from the mishmash of departments involved including  MORTH, TCP Haryana, GMDA, HSVP, and a plethora of other departments including Irrigation, HVPNL to name a few.
  
Recent visits to DTP offices in Gurgaon in August 2020 state that there is still no certain timeline with vision document available with the authorities which can be transparently shared to the public. Beurocrats simply shrugging their shoulder stating their departmental limitations and send the aggrieved to the next department and bureaucratic wheels under wheels.

A project of national interest, urgency, and impending planning failures of the Dwarka Expressway Economic Corridor.

While Dwarka expressway development corridor boasts of billions of dollars of economic push and plans to house millions, has over Rs. 7000 Crore earmarked to develop the highway. Any news byte creates ripples in Gurgaon realty and shores up the aspirations of millions. There are some major planning flaws between the dream and reality of Dwarka Expressway.

While the masterplan was created just on paper without critical land acquired or related execution and coordination plan in place, the road was delayed over a decade owing to the DDA and Delhi government delay in acquiring land for the project for years, same for the Haryana government and HUDA which took years and years to resolve the land acquisition issues, with the nerves of all including homebuyers, builders and agencies in the fray.

The land was handed over to the NHAI in late 2018 for the development of the road, and there is slow progress now on the ground.

But even after the debacle of this high profile, most publicized road, local agencies haven't learned their lessons.

Dwarka expressway is not just a road, the thousands of crores invested in building this and all the pains taken will fail if it can't meet the revenue target it forecasts. The revenue targets can be met only when the areas adjacent to Dwarka expressway economic corridor develop at a fast pace. These sectors are the economic lifelines to the whole corridor very similar to the 21 tributaries are the lifeline of the River Ganges. We can't see Dwarka Expressway as simply a wide highway and ignore the fact that such infrastructure has to be supported by a strong urban workforce who are living and going to be living in the 35 adjacent sectors spread across thousands of acres of highly urbanized land.

But, the same agencies which worked in such a lackluster manner in acquiring and implementing the Dwarka expressway, and denied the economic benefits the nation should have already achieved owing to their planning and coordination failures, are again repeating the same mistakes.

It will baffle anyone's mind that a project of such an important economic significance, public interest, and larger developmental purposes is again languishing at the hands of local agencies.

1. The sector roads which should have been built by now to cater to the Dwarka expressway economic corridor are nowhere to be seen, with no movement done in the planning and execution front.

2. Sewerage and stormwater trunks, road-culverts that should have been built with urgency while the residential/commercial projects are being built all around the corridor - is seeing no movement.

3. Electricity infrastructure which is needed to catch up with the fast pace economic activities forecasted on the corridor and make this project viable is yet to see the daylight and the public domain.

4. An institutional framework like Police Stations, public community centers, public parks, Stadiums, PHCs, Hospitals, Educational infra like Government Schools, center for higher education is simply on papers.

All this is not only a cause of distress to the people who have dreamt of being a part of this corridor but also is a major jolt to the Indian economic story which can learn a lot from the utter coordination failures of central planning and local execution of such projects in India.

Owing to the non-availability of compulsory infrastructure or their dilapidated state, the whole Dwarka expressway is languishing with failed projects, investors' confidence at abysmal levels, anger, and mistrust at the local levels, with fast deteriorating lives of whoever is living in these sectors.

The economic corridor still has the potential to shore up the NCR economy, create millions of jobs and pull a large population out of poverty and build a strong middle class, but only that local agencies wake up and start acting with the urgency of this project and everything supporting it deserves.

Else it simply tells the story of why China is now a superpower that can stare the USA in the eyes and we are nowhere within 5 times of GDP developmental leap needed, while engulfed in a massive border conflict with China. A border which needs massive technological, infrastructural, and defense mechanism to be defended with and which can only be supported by the economic might created by projects like Dwarka Expressway and rapid urbanization of the region, and such regions.

We will keep documenting any response we get from the agencies on this matter as public purpose research of systemic scope, if you are also engaged with agencies and trying to get development plan execution fast-tracked, contact us by filling the form below.
