11 Nov 2025 CW Team

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) has awarded the contract for constructing master stormwater drains in sectors 76 to 80, with work scheduled to commence on 8 November. The project, valued at around Rs 1.05 billion, is expected to be completed within 30 months, officials said.

A GMDA spokesperson stated that the project forms part of the authority’s comprehensive master drainage plan for the Gurugram–Manesar urban area, which was approved in August this year. The drainage system has been designed according to natural ground slopes to enable smooth stormwater discharge into existing master drains along the Central Peripheral Road (CPR) and Northern Peripheral Road (NPR).

“The proposed drainage network will provide a lasting solution to the persistent problem of water stagnation along NH-48 service roads and adjoining sector roads, which currently lack adequate disposal systems,” the spokesperson noted.

GMDA Chief Engineer (Infrastructure-II) R S Jangra added, “The provision of a master stormwater drain along this corridor will significantly enhance Gurugram’s drainage capacity and reduce instances of urban flooding.”

The project will be carried out in two phases. Phase I will cover sectors 77 to 80 and NH-48 (Rampura Chowk to Kherki Daula), spanning 13.86 km, while Phase II will include the Sector 75A/76 dividing road and the Manesar–Rampura Chowk stretch, adding another 4.52 km.

The GMDA further stated that similar drainage improvement works are already in progress across sectors 68–75 and 112–115 to develop an integrated citywide network.
