Chilla Elevated Road in Delhi Receives Rs 801 Cr Budget Clearance

The delayed Chilla Elevated Road is expected to see movement, which is good news for Delhi-Noida travelers, since a budget has finally been assigned to the project, which has been stuck since 2021 due to a lack of funding. The 5.9-kilometer corridor, which connects Mayur Vihar to the Greater Noida Expressway, is intended to dramatically reduce traffic congestion on the Delhi-Noida link route.

The elevated road will aid lakhs of travelers between Noida and Delhi who currently face traffic jams and chokepoints. It will link Mayur Vihar's Chilla to Noida's Mahamaya Flyover, where the Greater Noida Expressway begins. This will transform the route from Delhi to Pari Chowk into a nonstop, high-speed corridor.

The project has been authorized by the UP government's expenditure finance committee (EFC), and the proposal will now be referred to the state cabinet for approval. Following approval from the cabinet, a new tender will be published to locate a firm to complete the project.

Officials stated the Noida Authority and the Public Works Department (PWD) would split the project funds equally.

The Uttar Pradesh State Bridge Corporation Ltd (UPSBC), the institution in charge of building the elevated road till now, will now hire a private business to finish the job. According to officials, this was the first time in recent memory that a construction agency hired another contractor for the task allocated to it.

The budget for the Chilla elevated road project has been altered multiple times in recent years, adding to the project's delay.

The project was anticipated to cost Rs 6.05 billion in 2019. After three years, the bridge corporation raised its budget to Rs 10.76 billion in 2022. Nevertheless, the Noida Authority rejected the idea, prompting the corporation to reduce the cost to Rs 9.12 billion.

When the Authority was still dissatisfied, a private expert examined the estimate, which was cut to Rs 8.1 billion. The ultimate cost was agreed upon by IIT-Bombay, which agreed on Rs 8.1 billion.

In September 2022, EFC requested a file on the amount Noida Authority and PWD required to spend on the project from the bridge corporation. After reviewing the report, the budget was approved.
