Numerous residential communities along the Southern Peripheral Road (SPR) in Gurgaon have been occupied, and many new projects are in progress. The completion of the long-awaited Dwarka Expressway is eagerly anticipated by residents of the new sectors. However, the future journey along SPR might not be smooth, as the redevelopment plan for SPR has yet to materialise after four years of planning. Once the Dwarka Expressway becomes operational, it is expected to further increase traffic on SPR, connecting Dwarka Expressway and NH-8 to Ghata village, Faridabad, and Delhi. Over the past year, traffic on SPR has significantly increased due to the booming real estate sector, leading to multiple residential societies being occupied along the stretch and numerous new ones being constructed. The opening of the Gurgaon section of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway has added to the traffic load. Residents, like Dhirender Singh from Mapsko Mount Ville, are concerned about the current condition of SPR, which is riddled with potholes. They emphasise the urgency of undertaking major repairs to prevent accidents and traffic congestion for commuters coming from the expressway. Despite plans for SPR's redevelopment dating back to 2019, various proposals have been made, including repairing the stretch and building underpasses. The most recent proposal involved constructing eight flyovers and widening carriageways to six lanes, along with service roads widened to three lanes, at a cost of Rs 8,455 million. However, this plan was scrapped, leading to frustration among residents. Recently, Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar directed officials to recall the tender for the project and create a new plan with a modified design. The possibility of constructing an elevated road for direct connectivity between the Sohna Elevated Road (part of the Delhi-Mumbai Expressway project) and Central Peripheral Road was also explored. Residents, represented by individuals like Rahul Dahiya and Neehar Ranjan, express disappointment with the lack of concrete action regarding SPR's redevelopment. They emphasise the urgent need for the authorities to address the road's poor condition and plan for the expected increase in traffic, which, if overlooked, could lead to longer daily commutes for many. A senior official from the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) mentioned that they have prepared a rough estimate for special repairs on the road. The plan includes the construction of five flyovers from Ghata village to Vatika Chowk in the first phase, with further examination and revision of the Vatika Chowk-NH-8 stretch by engaging a consultant. Immediate action is being taken to provide relief to commuters while addressing the pressing issues on SPR.
