The vehicles moving on the Dasna-Hapur stretch on the Delhi-Lucknow National highway (NH-09) will have to be more careful about speeding from now onwards. The NHAI (National Highway Authority of India) is planning to add speed cameras on the route to avoid accidents.
The proposal has been approved by NHAI, and officials are expected to install the cameras by September or October. Once the cameras will be planted any vehicle which will cross the speed limit will immediately get e-challan on their phones.

Multiple cars, buses, and trucks crosses this stretch on daily basis. The highway was extended to six lanes in 2019, making commuting easy for vehicles, however it becomes another reason for vehicles to drive faster because of the spacing, although it's turning into accidents more.

The authority is planning to install three cameras of overspeed on the Dasna-Hapur stretch. The places are likely to be: The cameras will be connected to the Chhijarsi toll plaza control system. Once the cameras will be installed they will automatically check the speed of vehicles passing the stretch. If a vehicle is found crossing the speed limit, the cameras will work following: NAHI Ghaziabad respresentative Amit Sharma said that the proposal of installing the cameras have already been passed, now they are waiting for financial approval.
