11 November 2021: Officials claim that the land acquisition process has begun for the sections of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway in the Gautam Budh Nagar area. The proposed Noida international airport near Jewar would be connected to the DelhiMumbai motorway, which runs between the two major cities. Balram Singh, an assistant district magistrate in Gautam Budh Nagar, claims that the Haryana government intends to buy land as soon as possible so that construction can proceed quickly. Additionally, he stated that Jewar Tehsil has received a notification from the government to start the land acquisition process. The administration will begin surveying & measuring the area after giving farmers 21 days to submit any objections they may have.

On October 18, 2021: The Noida administration announced that property was being acquired for a branch road that would connect the planned Jewar Airport to the Delhi–Mumbai Expressway. The Faridabad-Ballabgarh bypass and the DND are both accessible via the connection road. The district administration had been requested by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) to start the process of purchasing private land parcels on its behalf. The branch road will require the acquisition of about 69 hectares of property.
August 31, 2021: Whereas there was previously discord between the states of Uttar Pradesh and Haryana, both state governments would now evenly split the expense of building the road link from the projected Jewar International Airport to the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway. 23.5 km of the 31 km road link are in Haryana, and 7.5 km are in Uttar Pradesh. The development of the Ghaziabad-Noida-Dadri
Industrial Corridor investment zone will be aided by the link road's presence. To better serve more residents and businesses in Haryana, the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway connection road was planned by RITES.
