An Expressway Near Your Plot? What to Check Before Buying

Would an Upcoming Expressway Influence Your Property Decision?

Reports say contractors have been finalised for five proposed expressway links in Uttar Pradesh. Better connectivity may eventually make some journeys easier, but access to an expressway depends on where its interchanges and connecting roads are built.

For someone considering a property near one of these routes, the difficult question is how much weight to give a project that is not yet open.

• What evidence would you want before paying a premium for a plot advertised as being near an expressway?
• How much should interchange access matter compared with the distance shown on a map?
• Have you seen a road project change a neighbourhood in an unexpected way?
