The Unified Traffic and Transportation Infrastructure (Planning and Engineering) Centre (UTTIPEC), the body spearheaded by lieutenant governor Anil Baijal, recently approved three road projects to decongest South Delhi. While two of them would improve the connectivity to airport, the other aims at upgrading the road infrastructure near the proposed exhibition-cum-convention centre in Dwarka, said official sources, claiming that the northern Mahipalpur bypass pending for the past two years, has been approved In 2016, the Union housing and urban affairs ministry had decided to fund 80% of the Rs 188 crore project, which would now be funded by the Centre entirely. The plan is to construct an underpass at NH-8 and two flyovers to provide smooth traffic movement between south Delhi and airport. Once constructed, it would substantially bring down the travel time as well. The body also approved a proposal to decongest Aurobindo Marg. UTTIPEC officials said intersection improvement work has to be carried out at Aurobindo Chowk, Adchini T-point and Andheria Mor. The third project is a grade separator in Dwarka's Sector 25 where an exhibition-cum-convention centre would come up. The proposal was submitted by Delhi Mumbai Industrial Corridor Development Corporation (DMICDC), which would construct the centre to upgrade the road infrastructure. The main connectivity to ECC from Delhi to Gurgaon is from Dwarka expressway, which is being developed by National Highway Authority of India.
