Noida to Revamp Transport Nagar Chowk with Rs 4-Crore Beautification Plan

The Noida Authority has unveiled plans to redevelop Transport Nagar Chowk in Sector 67 with a Rs 4-crore beautification project. Aimed at enhancing connectivity, accessibility, and urban aesthetics, the project will upgrade a 500-metre stretch along DSC Road with modern, inclusive, and sustainable infrastructure.

Officials stated that the stretch will be enhanced with ornamental lighting, sculptures, seating areas, bollards, food kiosks, and ramps for differently-abled individuals. A tender for the project is expected to be issued soon.

Neelima Rana, partner at Orionn Architects—the firm behind the design—said the redeveloped area will be inclusive and sustainable. “This will be a safe, vibrant, and accessible space for all—pedestrians, cyclists, and commuters—while ensuring environmental sustainability,” she said. Key features will include tactile flooring, green drainage integration, ramp access, decorative lighting, and zero black spots at night.

Vijay Rawal, Chief Engineer at the Noida Authority, added that the redesigned corridor will also include tree-lined walkways, a multi-utility underground infrastructure zone, and designated vendor kiosks to enhance footfall and avoid encroachment.

Inspired by the Authority’s successful Shashi Chowk model completed two years ago, which featured smart infrastructure like WiFi-enabled smart poles, panic buttons, underground utility ducts, and art installations, the new project seeks to replicate that success at a critical urban intersection.

An official added that the revamped Transport Nagar Chowk will not only improve traffic flow and safety but also offer a vibrant public space for walking, leisure, and community interaction.
