DMRC To Study Double Deck Flyover Option On Keshav Puram Rohini Line

The Delhi Metro Rail Corporation will undertake a feasibility study to develop an integrated double-decker flyover-cum-metro corridor along the proposed 16.5 km Keshav Puram-Rohini Sector 34 route under Phase V(B) of the Delhi metro network. The consultancy is estimated to cost around Rs 20.8 million (Rs 20.8 mn). The final report will consolidate findings of all stages and include recommendations on the preferred alignment and the overall feasibility of the proposed integrated corridor. The study is scheduled to be completed in six months.

It will assess alignment options, traffic and transport demand, structural and construction feasibility, utility constraints and commercial viability of the integrated corridor. The assessment will evaluate the need for loops, ramp-in and ramp-out facilities, cloverleafs, directional ramps and other road infrastructure. The consultant will prepare a transport model to assess current and future traffic demand and develop conceptual plans for integrating the metro viaduct with road infrastructure. Limited topographical verification will be carried out at critical stretches where required.

The proposed corridor passes through densely urbanised areas including Keshav Puram and several sectors of Rohini and will have to account for existing flyovers, metro structures, utilities, land constraints and busy traffic junctions. As part of the exercise the appointed consultant will conduct traffic volume counts, turning movement surveys, origin-destination studies, public transport surveys and a road network inventory. Speed and delay studies will be included to assess performance under different scenarios and to identify pinch points. The consultant will also prepare concept-level structural assessments, construction feasibility notes and preliminary land requirement estimates.

Indicative project cost estimates and conceptual bills of quantities will be prepared to aid decision making and to provide inputs for subsequent detailed design and procurement phases. The study will explore options to integrate road and metro facilities to ease traffic congestion along the corridor and to optimise land use in constrained urban stretches. Stakeholders will be required to coordinate on utility relocation and land acquisition plans where necessary. The report will present preferred alignment recommendations and an overall feasibility assessment to guide future project planning.

Mankhurd Maharashtra Nagar Flyover To Open By August 2027

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation has said the Mankhurd-Maharashtra Nagar flyover will be operational by August 2027, as part of measures to ease congestion in the eastern suburbs. The structure will provide a direct link from the T Junction on the Sion-Panvel highway to the existing Ghatkopar-Mankhurd Link Road. The T Junction is one of the major traffic choke points in the eastern suburbs and records heavy flows of vehicles travelling to and from Navi Mumbai and Pune. Motorists currently spend more than 15 minutes at the signal during peak periods, according to civic data, prompting the..
