In a move to improve road infrastructure and easing traffic congestion in the city, the Delhi government has approved the construction of a dedicated road corridor along both sides of the Sahibi river, from south west Delhi\u2019s Dhansa to Basai Darapur in west Delhi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, in line with Prime Minister Narendra Modi\u2019s vision of a modern and decongested Delhi, four major roads previously under PWD have now been officially handed over to NHAI for better management, expansion and maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This comes after the high-level committee meeting which is also the first meeting of the UT-Level Coordination Committee, was chaired by PWD Minister Parvesh Verma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several crucial decisions were made to eliminate traffic bottlenecks, improve inter-agency coordination, and expedite key road projects. To reduce traffic congestion and provide an alternative route, a dedicated road corridor will be developed along both sides of the Sahibi River, from Dhansa to Basai Darapur. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This will offer seamless connectivity and ease vehicular movement in key areas of the city. To ensure smooth traffic flow, the police station near Dhaula Kuan Metro Station will be relocated to create a dedicated slip road from NH-48 towards Naraina. This move will eliminate a major traffic bottleneck in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides to enhance road quality, streamline traffic movement, and improve maintenance efficiency, four major roads in Delhi have been officially handed over to NHAI which are Delhi-Rohtak Road (NH-10): Peeragarhi to Tikri Border (13.2 km); Delhi-Rohtak Road (NH-10): Peeragarhi to Zakhira (6.8 km); NH-2 (Mathura Road): Ali Village to Ring Road, Ashram Junction (7.5 km); NH-148A (MG Road) 8 km stretch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Verma said under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the government is committed to transforming Delhi\u2019s road infrastructure into a world-class, seamless, and future-ready network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sahibi River corridor will be a game-changer for the city, offering an alternative traffic route and significantly reducing congestion. Additionally, the transfer of key roads to NHAI will ensure faster expansion, better maintenance, and a more efficient commuting experience for Delhiites.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
