Before the opening of the new Bandikui–Jaipur Expressway, reaching Jaipur from Delhi used to take over four to five hours. But thanks to the newly inaugurated expressway, the travel time between the two cities has been cut down to three hours only! And it’s officially open now, marking a dramatic improvement for two of the most visited cities in India. Let’s find out more about the new expressway:The expressway was inaugurated on July 15 and is going to be a gamechanger.

During the first 10-day experiment (a toll-free trial), travellers shared some happy reviews calling it a convenient alternative.The expressway is constructed at a cost of over INR 1,300 crore. It has five interchanges, which allows easy exits at many prime junctions including Khuri, Bhedoli, and Sundarpura.
