Strong Connectivity

The area has strong linkages to the major urban areas amongst the surrounding developments of the north Indian region as well as other regions through national and state highways, expressways as well as rail corridors.


Roads

The under construction KMP Expressway also known as the Western Peripheral Expressway bye passing Delhi, passes through the project and provides connectivity to all the National Highways-- NH-2, NH-8, NH-71, NH-10 in the NCR. There are 2 KMP road interchanges which are in the vicinity of the MET project area.

The State Highway (SH 15A) passing along the western part of the project area has been proposed to be developed as a National Highway.

Two major district roads (MDRs) with four lane median divided roads pass through the project area viz, MDR 123 connecting Jhajjar in North west and on the west to Najafgarh in West Delhi, and MDR 136 that connects Bahadurgarh on the North East and Gurgaon on the South East


Rail

Farrukhnagar railway station is located close to the project area and is connected to the Garhi Harsaru station on main Northern Railway line emanating from Delhi

A 2 km rail link from Farrukhnagar will be extended. The Garhi Harsaru station is also planned to be upgraded to enable movement of cargo trains from the PFT towards Rewari and the ports in western India

Farukhnagar town is steeped in history for being one of the locations for holding prisoners captured by the British in the 1857 mutiny. The Delhi-Farukhnagar rail link is one of the oldest in the country having been commissioned in the year 1873. There are six pair of trains that operate daily to and from Farukhnagar connecting Delhi and other cities in North India


Air

The Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGI) in Delhi is 50km from the MET via SH-15A & NH-8. However, this distance would be reduced to about 30km, once the under construction Northern Peripheral Road/ Dwarka Expressway is completed
