In 2013, Rapid Metro was introduced to Cyber City, connecting it with Delhi Metro.[1] Six operational stations are within the Cyber City. The National Highway 48 (NH-48) runs through Cyber City and a project to construct a 16-lane expressway is also in progress.[3] A flyover between Cyber City and MG Road was opened in 2015 to reduce traffic congestion.[4] The Indira Gandhi International Airport is located close to the Cyber City. Delhi Metro's Phase 4 includes the extension of the Yellow Line from its current Southern terminus at Huda City Centre (now known as Millennium City Centre) further south of Cyber City.
