Majlis Park-Moujpur metro corridor gets ₹220-cr funding
To ensure hassle-free construction activities on the Majlis Park-Moujpur metro corridor, the Delhi Government has sanctioned ₹220 crore for the construction of a double-deck viaduct with a section of Delhi Metro’s upcoming Majlis Park-Moujpur road corridor on the upper deck and a PWD flyover on the lower deck. Apart from this, the government’s Expenditure Finance Committee also approved ₹230.6 crore for the construction of new building blocks in Netaji Subhas Institute of Technology (NSUT). Public Works Department is working with Delhi Metro Rail Corporation on two double-decker viaducts in the city, which apart from a 1.4-km stretch on the Majlis Park-Maujpur section also includes a 2.5-km viaduct on the upcoming Tughlakabad–Aerocity corridor of Delhi Metro’s Phase IV project. The integrated structure on the Majlis Park-Maujpur metro corridor will connect the proposed Yamuna Vihar and Bhajanpura metro stations. The double-deck viaduct would be 20 meters wide with the six-lane flyover covering the two busy crossings of Karawal Nagar and Ghonda Chowk and would be completed in two years. It would also be crucial in eliminating traffic snarls at these spots, besides, increasing carrying capacity on the existing road network.
