The Airport Effect: How Jewar Is Redefining Western UP’s Future

There’s a moment in history when a city's trajectory shifts. An invisible threshold is crossed, and what was once a possibility becomes an inevitability.

For Noida and its neighbours—Greater Noida, Vrindavan, and Agra—that moment is now.

In 2024, Noida alone absorbed 46% of all real estate investment in Uttar Pradesh. It’s already a front-runner in India’s Data Centre boom, drawing global players. Meanwhile, Vrindavan is becoming a Heritage City.

The result? A real estate surge. Here’s how it has appreciated in last five years:

  • Land prices on Yamuna Expressway increased by over 450% 
  • Property rates in Noida are up by 152% 
  • Housing prices in Greater Noida West increased by 122% 

And at the center of it all is the Noida International Airport.

Noida International Airport – An Overview

Set to be Asia’s largest and world’s third-largest airport, the Noida International Airport (NIA) is ready to operate from the first half of 2025. It boasts an annual passenger capacity of 225 million (when operating at full capacity) and will generate over a lakh employment opportunities in various sectors.

From the moment foundation was laid, NIA has been a growth engine for Noida, Greater Noida, and the Yamuna Expressway. Large-scale infrastructure projects are ensuring seamless connectivity across the National Capital Region (NCR) via multi-modal networks.

The result: property prices in Noida are soaring rapidly.

Let’s get to the details.

How Noida International Airport Will Be Connected To NCR 

Every economic revolution needs arteries—highways, rail networks, logistics corridors. NIA’s connectivity blueprint reads like a masterclass in urban planning:

Roadways and Expressways

  • The Airport will be connected to Yamuna Expressway via a 1,300-meter road. 
  • A VIP access road from the Yamuna Expressway to NIA is also being planned, designated for VIPs and emergency use.

  • A cloverleaf interchange will connect Yamuna Expressway to the Eastern Peripheral Expressway (EPE).
  • 31 km Greenfield Expressway to link the airport with the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) at Ballabhgarh near Faridabad.
  • A 750-meter, eight-lane interchange road will act as a vital connector between the airport and the greenfield expressway.
  • The National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) will construct an 8.2-km-long and 30-metre-wide road towards north and east of the airport. The road will facilitate access to the airport cargo terminal via the Yamuna Expressway.
  • The Yamuna Authority is to construct a 130-meter wide road connecting Greater Noida West and Ghaziabad to the cargo terminal at NIA.
  • A 16 km dedicated freight corridor and commuter road (proposed) to connect NIA with Chola railway station, running parallel to a proposed railway line.
  • A 60-km highway corridor will connect southern and eastern parts of Delhi to the upcoming Noida International Airport as well as the Mumbai Expressway.

Rail Networks

  • 60 km railway line between Chola and Rundhi to connect NIA with routes to Howrah, Chennai, and Mumbai via India’s first underground railway channel. 
  • A 135-kilometer-long Orbital Rail Corridor will link NIA with key logistics hubs in Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, running parallel to EPE.
  • Light Rail Transit system (LRT) will connect NIA to International Film City. 
  • 72 km Rapid Rail Transit System (RRTS) is already under construction. Will connect Ghaziabad to NIA with stations in key residential and commercial hubs.
  • A 72.4 km long Namo Bharat Metro route is proposed to connect NIA with Delhi’s IGI Airport. 

Alongside, as NIA will act as a turbo-booster for the regional economy, intracity connectivity will also be enhanced. 

For example, the Noida Metro Rail Corporation (NMRC) is extending the Golden Line Metro from Aerocity to Kalindi Kunj, providing easier connectivity to Botanical Garden (Blue Line) and Sarita Vihar (Magenta Line). Alternatively, the Noida - Greater Noida West Metro will further strengthen connectivity.

Large-Scale Infrastructure – A New ERA of Urban Expansion

An extensive connectivity framework is just the beginning. Improved connectivity implies strategic development initiatives that ease accessibility for upcoming industrial hotspots, logistic hubs, and future-ready development that redefines urban planning in India. 

Let’s dive into some infrastructure development set to reshape western Uttar Pradesh. These developments will together create over a million new employment opportunities, directly impacting the rise of real estate in Western Uttar Pradesh.

  • Noida’s micro-markets, like Noida Expressway and Central Noida, already host more than 150 MNCs, including tech and global giants like HCL, TCS, KPMG, Samsung, Deloitte, PwC and more. 

  • Microsoft is setting up its largest R&D facility outside its Indian Headquarters in Sector 145, Noida, which will create over 3,500 new jobs in the region. 

  • An upcoming International Film City in Sector 21, Yamuna Expressway,  is estimated to generate direct employment opportunities for around 50,000 professionals and benefit over seven lakh people indirectly. 
  • India is the Pharmacy of the World. Recognising the growth potential in the healthcare sector is North India’s first Medical Device Park in Sector 28, Yamuna Expressway. Spread across 350 acres, it will create over 5,000 direct employment opportunities. 
  • NTT Data, Sify Technologies, Yotta Data Centre (Hiranandani Group), Adani Group, and many global players are establishing large-scale data centres in Noida and Greater Noida, positioning the region as North India’s Data Centre hub. A semi-conductor hub is also upcoming on Yamuna Expressway’s Sector 10 and 28.
  • VIVO, Patanjali, Bikanerwala, and 11 other global companies have already started manufacturing units on Yamuna Expressway in 2025. 4.5 lakh jobs will be created due to the effort.

  • American, Korean, and Japanese cities are planned on Yamuna Expressway to create global industrial and educational ecosystems. 
  • An Olympic Park is coming up near NIA as per YEIDA Masterplan 2041. 
  • The ‘New Agra Urban Centre’, which is 10,500 hectares, is planned near Agra as a commercial and tourism centre. 
  • YEIDA’s Heritage City along Yamuna Expressway will connect tourism hotspots like Vrindavan, Mathura, and Agra. This will strategically boost real estate demands in Vrindavan and Agra.

The Investor’s Playbook: What This Means for Real Estate

Real estate doesn’t rise in a vacuum. They rise because of economic booms, infrastructural shifts, and people moving in before the world catches on.

Where infrastructure and connectivity strengthen, corporate hubs rise, and housing demand follows. It’s not just one micro-market winning—it’s an entire economic corridor.

Noida's transformation into a premier urban hub is unmistakable. The advent of growing macro-markets in Noida, like Noida Expressway, attracts global tech giants, propelling property rates in Noida.
