PWD plans ₹2,000 cr six-lane elevated road in Delhi
Decongesting the ring road between Sarai Kale Khan and Dhaula Kuan, PWD in Delhi has proposed a six-lane elevated road from Mahipalpur bypass on (NH-8) to the Barapullah elevated stretch in East Kidwai Nagar at an investment of ₹2,000 crore. The proposal for the 14-km link that would pass through Nelson Mandela Road, Vivekanand Marg, Africa Avenue, Leela Palace roundabout and Sarojini Nagar is with UTTIPEC for approval, said sources, adding that this option had been found as the most favorable one to decongest the existing road networks along Ring Road, Outer Ring Ring Road and Aurobindo Marg, and also to meet the expected traffic congestion once all eight central government colonies are redeveloped. As per the report, the road will take off from Mahipalpur Bypass where an underpass beneath NH-8 is being constructed by CPWD and will traverse at grid along the bypass and then go along Mehrauli-Mahipalpur Road to meet at Nelson Mandela Marg. From there, an elevated stretch will go up to Outer Ring Road near Munirka for which entry and exit ramps have been proposed along Nelson Mandela Road. The road will then pass through Vivekanand Marg to meet at Ring Road thereafter, it will take a further deviation to Africa Avenue and traverse as an elevated corridor over the Africa Avenue section up to Leela Palace Rotary as the PWD has already planned the extension of Barapullah phase-IV close to the rotary and that ramps have been proposed at Africa Avenue for traffic going and coming from Sarai Kale Khan.
