Will a tunnel soon connect Delhi and Jewar airports? Here's what we know

Following the development of Noida International Airport at Jewar, a persistent question has been on everyone’s mind: how quickly will travellers be able to reach it from Delhi?

Now, a new proposal could dramatically change the answer.

Authorities have begun exploring the possibility of an underground tunnel linking Delhi’s Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport with Noida International Airport in Jewar , a project that, if approved, could transform connectivity across the National Capital Region (NCR).

But before travellers start imagining a seamless underground journey between the two airports, it is worth understanding what has actually been proposed - and how far the project still has to go.

The most important detail is that the project remains at a very early stage.

According to recent reports, the Union Ministry of Road Transport and Highways and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) have initiated feasibility studies for a tunnel-based corridor that could connect key parts of Delhi, Noida and Gurugram while improving access between IGI Airport and Noida International Airport .

The tunnel has not yet received final approval, and construction has not begun.

In infrastructure planning, a feasibility study is essentially a reality check. Engineers and planners assess technical challenges, costs, traffic demand, environmental impact and financial viability before deciding whether a project should move forward.
