The Yamuna Expressway Authority (YXPA) announced plans to build a new city to accommodate the population surge from Noida International Airport in Uttar Pradesh. It is an exciting step toward progress. This innovative urban hub, set to be situated about 190 kilometers away from Noida and conveniently close to the upcoming Noida airport in Jewar, will cover a massive area of 10,500 hectares - almost as big as half of Noida!

Meticulous Planning for Sustainable Growth

To ensure meticulous planning and seamless execution, the YXPA has enlisted the expertise of seasoned consultants to craft a comprehensive 10-year master plan. This blueprint will encompass critical aspects such as robust transportation networks linking neighboring cities, meticulous environmental impact assessments, and innovative strategies for sustainable growth.

Catering to Tourism Boom & Economic Growth

The driving force behind this ambitious endeavor lies in the impending influx of travelers expected to flock to the region, spurred by the imminent inauguration of the Noida International Airport. Scheduled to commence passenger operations later this year, this state-of-the-art airport is poised to attract a flood of both domestic and international tourists.
