The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC), which has already completed the feasibility study for a provision of a major underpass at the busy Mohan Nagar intersection, has recently given a go-ahead to the project. The venue has been proposed as a major interchange for different extensions of the Metro in Ghaziabad. The DMRC‘s feasibility study has concluded that the underpass can be built with nearly 800 metres in length. The authority will now take a call on the construction aspect, GDA chief engineer SS Verma said that they will also give a presentation to GDA officials on the proposed underpass. The Mohan Nagar intersection is located on the six-lane GT Road with several important roads—towards Vasundhara, Lajpat Nagar, Hindon Air Base, and Ghaziabad — also branch out from the site and thus, the intersection experiences severe traffic congestion. A Metro station is being built at Mohan Nagar as part of the under-construction 9.41 km route from Delhi‘s Dilshad Garden to New Bus Stand in Ghaziabad.
