Noida plans new road to ease travel on expressway

05 Dec 2023 CW Team

The Noida Authority is planning to construct a 28 km road that will ease travel on Noida Expressway. Officials said the new route would skirt the Noida-Greater Noida expressway, which is expected to see a massive surge in traffic once the Noida airport becomes functional next year.

According to an initial plan, the new route will originate near the Kalindi Kunj barrage in Delhi and extend towards the Yamuna-Pushta Road ? which runs parallel to the Noida expressway and along the river?s floodplains.

From Sector 152, this route will lead to the Yamuna Expressway in Greater Noida?s Pari Chowk and eventually to the airport in Jewar. Lokesh M ? the Noida Authority CEO ? held a detailed discussion on the project with officials on Friday and decided to form a committee to conduct a feasibility study of the alternative route.

Headed by additional CEO Sanjay Khatri, the committee will collaborate with the irrigation department ? which maintains the Yamuna-Pushta (Bandh) road ? and the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI). The CEO said the Noida Authority would urge NHAI to oversee the construction of this new road as it would traverse different cities. Once ready, the detailed project report would be sent to the UP government to decide on the funding pattern.
