A road with the world's tallest wildlife overpass. A road where fighter jets can make emergency landings if needed. And a road that will cut the travel time between India's two biggest cities in half. All three belong to one single project — the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.
In this video, discover the 5 records that make this expressway far more than just a road:
🔹 Record 1: World's longest access-controlled highway — 1,386 km
🔹 Record 2: World's tallest wildlife overpass — near the Ranthambore-Mukundra Tiger Corridor
🔹 Record 3: An emergency fighter jet landing strip built in Rajasthan
🔹 Record 4: Barrier-free Multi-Lane Free Flow tolling technology
🔹 Record 5: Delhi-Mumbai travel time cut from 24 hours to just 12
Over ₹71,700 crore has already been spent on this project, and in August 2026, Delhi's final missing link — the DND Flyway to Jaitpur stretch — opened for trial runs.
