== Northern Peripheral Road or Dwarka Expressway ==

The Northern Peripheral Road (commonly known as [[Dwarka Expressway]]) is being developed under the public private partnership (PPP) model. This stretch will connect [[Dwarka (Delhi)|Dwarka]] with NH 8 (now renumbered National Highway 48 (India)|NH 48) at Kherki Dhaula and will intersect [[Gurgaon]]-[[Pataudi]] road.

Dwarka Expressway has been planned as an alternate link road between Delhi and Gurgaon, and is expected to ease traffic congestion on the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway. The road will also provide connectivity to the Garhi Harsaru dry depot ICD.<ref>{{cite news| url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-17/gurgaon/28553935_1_tenders-stretch-delhi-gurgaon-expressway | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121105001314/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-17/gurgaon/28553935_1_tenders-stretch-delhi-gurgaon-expressway | url-status=dead | archive-date=2012-11-05 | work=[[The Times of India]] | title=HUDA floats tender for Northern Peripheral Road | date=2011-02-17}}</ref> It was planned to be completed in 2013 but has faced many hurdles as land on some sections has not been acquired. It has been declared a national highway and numbered '''NH 248-BB''' to overcome the hurdle of land acquisition as NHAI can acquire land directly bypassing the state governments. It may be completed in 2023.
