The expressway is an 8.3-km signal-free corridor linking NH-8 with Golf Course Road.

The National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission has directed a Gujarat-based real estate firm to pay Rs 50,000 each to 23 homebuyers for the builder's failure to execute sale deeds even after handing over the possession of the flats 20 years ago.
