The 66.9-km Bandikui-Jaipur spur now allows travelers to reach Jaipur from Delhi in approximately three hours. Following a trial run that began on July 2nd, the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) offered toll-free travel during the initial period. This new route bypasses the frequently congested NH-48 and NH-21, connecting Bandikui in Dausa district to Jaipur. Toll charges for the route are estimated to be between Rs 600 and Rs 690 when implemented. NHAI is conducting a forensic safety audit and final inspection before commercial operations commence. The spur, built at a cost of around Rs 1,368 crore, includes multiple interchanges, such as Khuri, for efficient traffic flow into Jaipur. During the trial phase, vehicles are permitted to travel at a maximum speed of 120 kmph. This expressway promises to reduce travel time, conserve fuel, and lower transportation expenses. The journey from Bandikui to Jaipur can now be completed in just 30 minutes, and the entire Delhi to Jaipur trip will take approximately 2.5 to 3 hours, depending on traffic conditions.

The route spans across two districts, with 32.7 km in Dausa and 34.1 km in Jaipur. Five toll plazas have been constructed, including a virtual plaza at Shyamsinghpura.
