GMDA Plans 33 Access Points on Netaji Subash Road

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority has announced a plan to create 33 access points along Netaji Subash Road to reduce chronic traffic congestion and improve connectivity in the city. The scheme is intended to distribute vehicular flow more evenly by opening alternative entry and exit options along the corridor. Officials described the move as part of a broader effort to enhance road efficiency and safety without disrupting existing arterial links.

Netaji Subash Road serves as a key east-west thoroughfare in Gurugram and has experienced recurrent bottlenecks during peak hours, affecting commuters and public transport. The access points are planned to link residential pockets, commercial complexes and feeder roads to the main carriageway, reducing the need for long detours and cut-through movement on neighbouring streets. Planners have indicated that the design will incorporate signal optimisation and improved signage.

The authority said the project will include pavement upgrades, dedicated turning bays and pedestrian crossings to balance traffic throughput with road user safety. Measures will be taken to accommodate public transport and non-motorised transport, and the scheme is expected to ease congestion by offering multiple distribution nodes along the route. Coordination with municipal services will be necessary to relocate utilities and manage phased works so that disruption to commuters is minimised.

Stakeholders will be consulted during the detailed design stage and the authority signalled that traffic studies will guide the sequencing of works to minimise peak period impacts. The initiative is presented as a targeted intervention to improve travel time reliability and urban mobility along one of the city's busiest corridors. Monitoring and adjustments are expected as traffic patterns respond to the new access geometry and associated management measures.

NITI Aayog Unveils Cement Decarbonisation Roadmap

NITI Aayog has released a sector-specific decarbonisation roadmap for cement as part of three green transition reports covering cement, aluminium and MSMEs. The report projects cement production rising to around 2,100 million tonnes by 2070 from 391 million tonnes in 2023, while targeting a reduction in carbon intensity to 0.09–0.13 tCO₂e per tonne. It recommends clinker substitution, refuse-derived fuels, CCUS adoption and carbon trading mechanisms to enable deep decarbonisation. ..
