The Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA) has approved plans to develop a large integrated industrial and economic zone between Jewar and the Tappal-Bajna area, aimed at linking the Noida International Airport with the proposed Tappal-Bajna Logistics Park and Urban Centre in Aligarh.
Spanning around 7,600–8,000 hectares along the Yamuna Expressway, the corridor will house a mix of manufacturing units, logistics parks, warehouses, MSMEs, commercial spaces and worker housing. The location is seen as strategically important due to its proximity to the airport’s cargo terminal and the rapidly evolving industrial ecosystem in the YEIDA region.
The project is also expected to enhance connectivity with the upcoming 364-acre Tappal-Bajna manufacturing and logistics hub, which is planned to accommodate storage and distribution facilities for commodities such as cement, steel, grains and automobiles.
To move the project forward, YEIDA will appoint a consultant to prepare a detailed techno-economic feasibility report. This study will evaluate development potential, market demand, investment viability, infrastructure needs and environmental considerations. It will also identify suitable industrial sectors, assess land use patterns and propose financing and implementation models, along with a phased development roadmap.
Following approval of the feasibility study, a comprehensive master plan extending to 2041 will be drafted. This plan will outline land-use strategies based on connectivity, environmental sustainability and development constraints, while also covering zoning, logistics networks, utilities and regulatory frameworks.
The authority is accelerating industrial development in the region following the commencement of operations at Noida International Airport and its cargo terminal in mid-June. The deadline for submitting bids to appoint the consultant is August 5, with bids scheduled to be opened on August 7.
