Noida to Build Diamond-Shaped Interchange at Bhangel Elevated Road

28 May 2026 CW Team

The interchange design is intended to facilitate uninterrupted movement along the elevated corridor while allowing efficient access to adjacent arterial roads and service lanes. Planners envisage grade separation and loop ramps that will distribute turning movements without impeding mainline traffic. The layout is expected to improve safety by reducing conflict points and by providing clear traffic lanes for different movements. Traffic modelling informed the design to balance capacity and safety for all road users.

Construction will be carried out in phases to maintain traffic flow and minimise disruption, with traffic diversions and temporary measures deployed at critical stages. Work will involve civil engineering, road surfacing and drainage improvements as well as signalling upgrades to integrate the new geometry with existing traffic management systems. Coordination with local authorities and stakeholders will guide scheduling to limit peak hour impacts. Environmental safeguards and stormwater measures will be incorporated during construction.

The interchange forms part of a wider programme of urban transport enhancements in Noida that targets resilient mobility and reduced travel times. Authorities plan to monitor performance and adjust operations once the interchange is commissioned to ensure it meets traffic demand. The project highlights an ongoing focus on targeted infrastructure interventions to support urban growth and commuter convenience. Regular reviews and performance data will inform any operational adjustments after opening.

Noida Authority has approved construction of a diamond-shaped interchange at Bhangel Elevated Road to ease chronic congestion and improve connectivity in the southern sector. The project will reconfigure junction geometry to separate through traffic from local movements and provide dedicated ramps for smoother flow. Officials said the design responds to growing traffic volumes and aims to reduce delays for commuters. The scheme will prioritise pedestrian and cyclist access alongside vehicle movement.

NSW Launches 2.5 GW Renewable Tender And 12 GWh Storage

New South Wales has opened a pair of record tenders seeking two point five gigawatts (GW) of new renewable generation and 12 gigawatt?hours (GWh) of long?duration storage to accelerate its clean energy transition. The generation auction, Tender 8, is the largest launched under the NSW Electricity Infrastructure Roadmap and is being managed by independent consumer trustee AusEnergy Services Limited (ASL). The storage contest, Tender 9, seeks up to 12 GWh of additional storage and follows a decision to unlock an extra 50 per cent of capacity above baseline planning targets. Officials indicated t..

Jharkhand Researchers Develop Eco-Friendly Solar Cell

A team from the Department of Energy Engineering at the Central University of Jharkhand (CUJ) has developed an eco-friendly solar cell that uses a plant-based natural dye extracted from the petals of Mirabilis jalapa (commonly known as Gulabbas or Four O'Clock Flower). The researchers described the work as part of ongoing laboratory studies to explore sustainable alternatives to conventional photovoltaics. The device builds on dye-sensitised solar cell concepts adapted for locally available botanical materials. The lead researcher said the developed solar cell had achieved a highest power conv..

Gwalior Floats Rs 99.8 mn Tender For Two MW Solar Plant

The Gwalior Municipal Corporation has issued a Notice Inviting Tender under a Request For Proposal to appoint an agency to develop a grid-connected solar power project at Manpur. The scheme calls for a two Megawatt AC on-grid ground-mounted solar photovoltaic plant, with a 20 per cent DC oversizing that raises the total DC capacity to two point four Megawatt (MW). The selected developer will be responsible for detailed design, construction and all associated infrastructure works required for grid integration. The original tender document was dated eight June 2024 and was digitally updated in M..
