Land Acquisition Approval Paves the Way for Delhi's UER-II Traffic Solution

Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena has granted approval for the acquisition of more than two bighas of land in southwest Delhi crucial for the impending Urban Extension Road-II (UER-II) project. This marks a significant milestone in overcoming the final obstacles hindering the long-anticipated UER-II initiative, aimed at alleviating traffic congestion in Delhi.

The project faced a considerable setback due to the prolonged process of acquiring this vital land parcel in Bharthal village, which had been stalled since 2016, causing a seven-year delay in the overall project timeline.

Initially launched by the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) in 2016, the UER-II project was initially celebrated as a ground-breaking infrastructure venture. Formulated as the third ring road in the Delhi Master Plan, its primary objective is to alleviate traffic congestion throughout the city.

The proposed ring road is designed to create a seamless bypass between North and Southwest Delhi, providing relief from notorious congestion points like Dhaula Kuan, and enhancing connectivity to both outer and inner ring roads.

The UER-II extension is planned to span from NH-1 to NH-2, connecting areas such as Narela, Bawana, and Rohini in North Delhi with Dwarka and IGI Airport in southwest Delhi, as well as the neighbouring Gurugram.

Furthermore, the project envisions linking to major national highways on the western side of the national capital, including NH-1, NH-10, NH-8, and NH-2.

Upon successful completion, UER-II promises not only to revolutionise road connectivity in Delhi but also to provide a convenient alternative route for commuters and freight traffic from the southern and eastern parts of Haryana to Delhi and beyond, extending to Rajasthan.
