Sisodia lays stone for 3 underpasses

Wednesday, 28 September 2022 | Staff Reporter | NEW DELHI

Delhi Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia on Tuesday laid the foundation stone for three new underpasses at Shalimar Bagh here that will be constructed at a cost of `59.5 crore.

The underpasses will ease traffic congestion around Mukarba Chowk and Haiderpur Badli Metro, it said.  “The first underpass will be constructed at Gate No.3 of Haiderpur Badli Metro Station for pedestrians and NMVs moving towards Badli. The second underpass is 50 meters in length, 9.6 meters wide and six meters high which will be used by vehicles coming from Badli, Outer Ring Road towards Shalimar Bagh,” said Sisodia. “At present vehicles going towards Badli or Outer Ring Road have to use a loop while moving between Mukarba Chowk and Shalimar Bagh. With upcoming underpass, they will have to travel 1.5 kilometers less,” said Sisodia. “Third underpass will be built for vehicles plying between Sanjay Gandhi Transport Nagar to Azadpur via elevated road coming up in future.

 

This underpass will help in eliminating the traffic at Mukarba Chowk and save the travel time of the commuters,” said Sisodia. “Delhi governance model is being discussed all over the world. In the last seven years, under the leadership of Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, great work has been done in Delhi in the field of education, health and urban infrastructure development,” Sisodia added.
