The Delhi-Amritsar-Katra National Expressway (NE-5) will be extended from the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway to the Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II), as part of one of the three mega highway projects.

The construction of a new 17 Km highway connecting Urban Extension Road II (UER 2) to the Delhi-Dehradun expressway near Tronica City has also been approved.
