A few years ago, most of the land along Dwarka Expressway was open ground. Today it's one of the busiest residential belts in Gurgaon. If it keeps coming up in your search, there's a reason.
The expressway, also called the Northern Peripheral Road, ties Delhi's Dwarka to NH-48 near Kherki Daula. That one link changes a lot: it shortens the trip from Gurgaon's newer sectors to Dwarka and the Delhi airport side.
Why people like it
- Easy to reach Delhi and the airport, compared with many older parts of Gurgaon.
- Planned sectors, with wide internal roads instead of lanes squeezed in later.
- Plenty of choice, from compact flats to large premium homes, across several developers.
- Newer projects, so the amenities and layouts feel current.
Where Godrej is along the corridor
The belt runs through a long string of sectors, roughly 83 to 115. Godrej Properties has projects in several of them: Godrej Air in Sector 85, Godrej Summit in Sector 104 and Godrej Meridien in Sector 106 are good places to start.
Go and see it before you decide
A map won't tell you everything. When you visit, check these:
- Is the nearest school, hospital and shopping open today, or only promised?
- How good is the approach road from the expressway to the project's gate?
- For towers still being built, what does the RERA page say about progress and possession?
- How reliable are water and power in that particular sector?
Who tends to love this corridor
It works especially well if your life already tilts towards the Delhi side: you work in Dwarka or Aerocity, you fly often, or your family lives in West Delhi. It also suits people who want newer, better-planned sectors and don't mind being a little further from the older parts of Gurgaon.
What a typical weekday looks like
Mornings are usually the test. The expressway moves well when it's clear, but junctions and service roads can slow down at peak hours, and your experience will depend on your exact sector. Do a trial run at 9 am on a weekday before you decide. You'll learn more from one drive than from any brochure.
Mistakes we see buyers make
- Buying on the word 'expressway' alone. A project can be near the expressway and still have a slow, narrow approach road.
- Ignoring possession dates. Several sectors are still being built out. Check the RERA timeline.
- Assuming every promised facility is open. Schools, hospitals and retail arrive in stages, so ask what's open now.
- Comparing only the rate per sq. ft. Look at the all-in price on carpet area.
Choosing between projects on the corridor
Godrej Properties' projects here differ in feel. Godrej Air is built around air quality, with purifying plants and flowering trees in the landscaping. Godrej Summit is a ready-to-move community of eleven towers set amid roughly 80% open, landscaped space. Godrej Meridien leans towards a premium, lifestyle-led address. Open each page, compare the configurations, and book visits for the ones that stand out.
Why timing matters here
Because the corridor is still maturing, the area you see today may look quite different in a few years, with more shops, schools and services. That's an opportunity, but it's also a reason to stay realistic about how things look now. If you're buying under construction, think about what daily life will feel like at possession, not only in the artistic impression.

Yes. For example, Godrej Summit in Sector 104 is listed as ready to move. Other projects on the corridor are under construction.
How do I compare projects on the expressway?
Use the all-in price per carpet sq. ft., the possession date on the RERA page, and a site visit to judge the approach road and surroundings.
