Drifting away from its earlier plan to construct an elevated U-turn on the Delhi-Gurgaon expressway and instead decided to come up with an underground U-turn at the same spot, the NHAI said that the underground U-turn proposal is underway with consultant preparing its design and detailed project report (DPR). The project will be put up before the local administration for approval shortly. On one side the ramp of the underground U-turn will start near the landing of the Shankar Chowk flyover towards Udyog Vihar. The ramp for the U-turn will start nearly 150 meters before entry to Leela Hotel on the other side of thee-way and that funding of the underground tunnel will be borne equally by the highways authority and Haryana government, Ashok Sharma, project director of NHAI, Gurgaon, said.
