Sohna elevated corridor gets Rs 340 crore approval to improve connectivity and support South Gurugram real estate

The Center has approved Rs 340.78 crore for a 2.75-km-long, six-lane elevated corridor at Sohna Chowk in Haryana’s Nuh district. The proposed stretch will be built at the intersection of National Highway 919 (NH-919) and NH-248A, a key junction for traffic moving between Gurugram, Sohna, Nuh, and neighboring areas.

Union Road Transport and Highways Minister Nitin Gadkari announced the approval on October 31, 2026. The project aims to separate Gurugram-Nuh through traffic, allowing vehicles to pass through Sohna with fewer interruptions. It is also expected to strengthen regional connectivity with the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway (DME) and the Kundli-Manesar-Palwal (KMP) Expressway.

The development comes as Sohna and the wider South Gurugram region continue to attract residential and commercial activity. Improved highway movement could make these locations more accessible to people traveling between Gurugram, Nuh and other parts of Haryana.

What are the key details of the Sohna elevated corridor?

The proposed elevated corridor will be developed at the busy Sohna Chowk intersection, where NH-919 and NH-248A meet. Its six-lane configuration is intended to improve traffic movement along the Gurugram-Nuh route and reduce delays caused by local and cross traffic.

How will the new corridor improve connectivity around Sohna?

The intersection of NH-919 and NH-248A serves traffic traveling between several regional destinations. NH-919 connects Palwal with Rewari through Sohna and Dharuhera, while NH-248A runs from Gurugram towards the Rajasthan border through Sohna and Nuh.

The new elevated corridor is expected to reduce the conflict between vehicles traveling along these routes and local traffic crossing the junction. This could improve journey consistency for commuters, commercial vehicles and other road users. The project will also strengthen access to two major expressway networks:

• Delhi-Mumbai Expressway: The wider road network provides access towards the Delhi-Mumbai corridor. Better movement through Sohna could improve regional journeys towards this expressway.
• Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway: The KMP Expressway connects major parts of Haryana and provides an important route for regional and freight traffic. Improved movement along NH-919 and NH-248A could support access to this network.

Is the new Sohna elevated corridor different from the existing one?

The newly approved 2.75-km corridor is separate from the existing Gurugram-Sohna elevated highway on NH-248A. The existing six-lane Gurugram-Sohna highway, which connects Rajiv Chowk in Gurugram with Sohna, was opened to traffic in July 2022. It improved road access between the two locations through an elevated section along the route.

The latest approval concerns the Sohna Chowk junction in Nuh district, where NH-919 and NH-248A intersect. Its primary purpose is to reduce congestion at this junction by separating through traffic from local and cross traffic. Together, the two projects address different parts of the Gurugram-Sohna road network.

What are the average property prices in Sohna and other Gurugram markets?

How could the project influence property demand in South Gurugram?

The new corridor could support residential demand by improving road movement through an important junction on the Sohna-Nuh route. For homebuyers considering Sohna, access to Gurugram and other regional destinations remains an important part of the location decision.

The wider road network also matters for commercial and industrial activity. Improved movement along NH-919 and NH-248A could support businesses that depend on road transport, including logistics operators and companies serving regional markets.

Sohna’s comparatively lower average asking price than several established Gurugram micromarkets could also keep it on the radar of buyers looking at locations beyond the city’s premium residential corridors. Still, affordability alone may not drive demand. Employment opportunities, project delivery, social infrastructure, public transport, and access to quality housing will also influence buyer decisions.
