NHAI unveils new road to de-congest NH-8

Road Infrastructure Projects
In a renewed initiative to kick-start stalled road infrastructure projects in Gurgaon, the Urban Development Authority has announced that it will soon acquire 102 acres required land parcel for building the Central Peripheral Road (CPR), connecting two important highways. The 3.2 kilometre long road will help connect the Southern Peripheral Road (SPR) and NH-8 to the Dwarka Expressway. The CPR will start 200-metres before Kherki-Daula toll plaza on the Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway (NH-8) and will join the Dwarka Expressway near Harsaru village. This connecting road will be a vital link between Dwarka Expressway and SPR, as a cloverleaf flyover will be built on the NH-8 to facilitate easy movement of vehicles from east to west and vice-versa. The connectivity between the two major roads will help in decongesting the NH-8, which witnesses daily jams and has several bottlenecks between Gurgaon and Delhi. A large number of vehicles going to Sohna road and Golf Course Road from Dwarka and west Delhi could use this connection. Traffic from south Delhi, Golf Course Road, and Faridabad could easily enter the city, go to Manesar or move towards new sectors in Gurgaon and also in Dwarka, thereby reducing pressure on the highway, said NHAI sources.
