Noida Authority plans 28 km bypass road to ease expressway congestion

The Noida Authority is in the process of planning a 28 km road to alleviate travel on the Noida Expressway. Officials have indicated that the proposed route will circumvent the Noida-Greater Noida Expressway, anticipating a substantial increase in traffic once the Noida airport becomes operational next year.

In the preliminary plan, the new road is envisioned to commence near the Kalindi Kunj barrage in Delhi and extend towards the Yamuna-Pushta road, running parallel to the Noida Expressway along the river's floodplains. Starting from Sector 152, the route will connect to the Yamuna Expressway in Greater Noida's Pari Chowk and ultimately lead to the Jewar airport.

Lokesh M, the CEO of the Noida Authority, engaged in an in-depth discussion on the project with officials and decided to establish a committee tasked with conducting a feasibility study for the alternative route. This committee, led by additional CEO Sanjay Khatri, will collaborate with the irrigation department responsible for maintaining the Yamuna-Pushta (Bandh) road and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The Noida Authority aims to persuade the NHAI to oversee the construction of the new road, given its traverse through various cities. The detailed project report, once prepared, will be submitted to the UP government for a decision on the funding model.

Before that, Lokesh M stated, "We will present the committee's report to the NHAI chairperson first and seek assistance in building the road. The final decision will, obviously, rest with the government."

The committee's responsibilities include conducting surveys to determine elevated stretches, assess land availability, and examine the development of sectors along the proposed alignment. Lokesh M emphasised that the new route is strategically planned to accommodate the anticipated surge in traffic on the Noida Expressway following the commencement of airport operations. He acknowledged the urgency of a plan to alleviate congestion on the existing stretch, citing traffic snarls during rush hours on the 25km expressway.

This initiative aligns with other mobility projects aimed at decongesting the Noida Expressway. The Delhi Metro is proposing a route connecting Sector 142 in Noida with the Botanical Garden station, running parallel to the expressway. Additionally, the Chilla elevated road, connecting Mayur Vihar in Delhi with the Mahamaya flyover on the Noida Expressway, is a crucial project that, once operational, will enable commuters from Delhi and Ghaziabad to directly reach the Bandh road from the flyover, bypassing the Noida Expressway and leaving it primarily for traffic from the Noida sectors.
