The Global City Project in Gurugram backed by HSIIDC finally gets a clearance from The Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. The prestigious project coming up in Gurugram sectors 36B, 37A and 37B near the recently opened Dwarka Expressway will spread across around 1000 acres and will have residential zones, industrial clusters, and commercial zones.
Officials said that under phase 1 of Global City, the Haryana government has also started work on developing the infrastructure facilities in the area earmarked for the project. The Global City project was conceived in 2019 and the tender for the first phase was awarded in September 2023.
Under phase 1, roads, electricity, water supply, and other infrastructure will be created on 587 acres by December 2026 at a tentative expenditure of Rs 940 crore, the official said. The work will include the construction of 13-km of internal roads, a 26-km-long storm water drain network, around 12-km potable water network, a 12-km recycled water pipeline, a landscape across 82 acres, and a 10-km utility tunnel, officials said.
The Global City is planned as a self-sufficient township, with a focus on modern technology and future-oriented industries, low-carbon green infrastructure and more.
