The Expressway is a 135 km, six-lane highway operational since 2018. Its design and development were done by National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). It starts from Kundli near Sonipat passing through Baghpat, Ghaziabad, and Noida districts in Uttar Pradesh and Faridabad district in Haryana before it rejoins the Western Peripheral Expressway near Dholagarh, Palwal. The project's estimated cost was INR110 billion (US$1.36 billion).
