Some parts completed; central & underground facilities are getting set up.

Shortens lead time for investment; attractive to industries wanting faster commissioning.

Ultra-Mega Solar Park

Dholera is home to one of India’s largest planned renewable energy projects — a 5,000 MW solar park. Once operational, it will transform the region into a renewable energy powerhouse and support India’s clean energy goals.

Tata Power Solar PV / Solar Projects :- Part of the solar park (e.g. 300 MW commissioned, single-axis trackers) under the larger 5,000 MW plan.
Phase-1: 300 MW commissioned

Ahmedabad–Dholera Expressway

109 km eight-lane access-controlled highway being built at a cost of around ₹4,373 crore. The project, developed by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), will connect Ahmedabad’s Sardar Patel Ring Road to Dholera Special Investment Region (SIR). The expressway incorporates eco-friendly features like wildlife crossings, recycled material in embankments, and greenbelt development. Once operational, it will significantly enhance industrial, residential, and logistical connectivity in Gujarat’s Dholera region, making it one of the state’s most important infrastructure corridors.

Dholera Greenfield International Airport

The Dholera International Airport is on track for completion in December 2025, confirms the Union Ministry of Civil Aviation. This greenfield airport—built on 1,426 hectares near Navagam in Gujarat—will serve the Dholera Special Investment Region and ease load on Ahmedabad Airport. The first phase will feature a 3.2 km runway, passenger terminals, and a dedicated cargo terminal, positioning Dholera as a future logistics hub. With construction progressing steadily and supporting road infrastructure like the Ahmedabad–Dholera Expressway underway, the airport is expected to become a catalyst for regional trade, connectivity, and growth.

Bhimnath–Dholera Freight Rail Line

The Bhimnath-Dholera line is a 23.33-kilometer new broad gauge freight railway link being built to connect Bhimnath station to the Logistics Hub in Dholera, with an estimated cost of about ₹ 466 crore.
The Detailed Project Report (DPR) has been submitted to and given in-principle approval by the Railway Board, and land acquisition (around 117.81 hectares) is underway.
Once completed, this freight line will link Dholera more directly with the Indian Railways network (and the Dedicated Freight Corridor), reducing logistics time and cost for industries in the region.

Electronic Specialty Gas Hub (Inox AP)

A ₹500 crore hub for high-purity electronic gases, supporting semiconductor & electronics industries.
Construction has started.

Trunk Infrastructure (by L&T)

Core infrastructure such as roads, drainage, power supply, and utilities are being developed by Larsen & Toubro (L&T). The ABCD Building (Administrative and Business Centre for Dholera) is already completed and serves as the command hub.

Mangrove / Coastal Environmental Project
