Latest January–February 2026 Updates on India’s Commonwealth Games Preparations
As India prepares to host the Commonwealth Games 2030, Ahmedabad has entered a high-speed infrastructure execution phase. Over the past month, official updates confirm record progress in road development, metro planning, and urban upgrades linked directly to CWG 2030 readiness.
The development push is being executed through coordinated efforts of Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation (AMC), Ahmedabad Urban Development Authority (AUDA), Gujarat Metro Rail Corporation (GMRC), and the state’s urban development departments.
According to recent civic and government briefings, the following focus areas are shaping Ahmedabad’s CWG 2030 transformation:
AMC reported completion of more than 8.45 lakh metric tonnes of road work in the current financial year, marking the city’s highest-ever road development output.
Priority corridors connecting Motera, Sabarmati, Chandkheda, Airport Road, and central zones are being upgraded for smooth CWG 2030 mobility.
Metro Phase-II planning has intensified, focusing on seamless connectivity to major CWG 2030 venues, transport hubs, and high-footfall zones.
Sports venues across Ahmedabad are undergoing technical assessments for international-standard upgrades, including athlete amenities, lighting systems, medical facilities, and broadcast infrastructure.
In the last month, authorities expanded clean-air initiatives using dust-control technology, real-time monitoring, and sustainable construction practices as part of CWG 2030 planning.
The accelerated infrastructure progress reported recently will deliver long-term benefits beyond the Commonwealth Games.
Upgraded roads and expanded metro connectivity will ease congestion and improve daily commuting.
Consistent CWG 2030 progress strengthens Ahmedabad’s reputation as a global sports-hosting city.
Infrastructure readiness supports rising tourism demand ahead of CWG 2030.
These upgrades also align with India’s long-term ambition to host larger international sporting events.
