The Kolkata Metropolitan Development Authority (KMDA) has submitted a DPR for the proposed EM Bypass to New Town flyover plan to the state PWD. The authority is working on finalizing the technical modalities of the proposed flyover and will carry out technical scrutiny to place the proposal for government approval and funding. It plans to float tender to engage an agency to construct the flyover involving an investment of ₹600 crore. According to DPR, the flyover will be about 6-km long and will take off from near Metropolitan crossing on EM Bypass and move over Chingrighata. It will then take a right turn to enter Salt Lake Bypass and move in parallel to the Metro alignment before entering Sector V by taking a right turn from Nicco Park junction and then bypass the wetlands of Nalban before finally ending at New Town. As per the alignment, the flyover will have provisions of an entry and exit ramp in Sector V, keeping in mind the crowd dispersal at the East-West Metro stations at Sector V and Karunamoyee. The EM Bypass-New Town flyover is the need of the hour as the existing Chingrighata flyover, which is out of bounds for long-term repair, needs to be demolished.
