The six-lane expressway was inaugurated in April 2005.[1] Construction work was handled by GVK Jaipur Expressway Private Limited (GJEPL) under the build-operate-transfer model. Built at a cost of 7.29 billion INR,[2] the expressway was the first Indian road built under the public-private partnership model.[3]
