Roads linking Dwarka e-way and NH-8 to be revamped

The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) is planning to redevelop two arterial stretches that together link NH-8 and Dwarka Expressway to streamline traffic flow. Officials said they have completed a preliminary study on the two stretches ? IFFCO Chowk to Mahavir Chowk (4.8km), and Old Railway Road to Dwarka Expressway via Basai (6.1 km). The move will help decongest Old Gurgaon, according to GMDA.

The proposed project will include the identification of critical intersections and road segments, where lanes will be widened to remove bottlenecks and reduce travel time between the two highways. Moreover, flyovers or underpasses will be planned in areas such as Basai Road, Old Railway Road and Sukhrali for smooth vehicular movement, GMDA said.

Besides strengthening and widening the two stretches, GMDA also plans to make provisions of on-street parking, build footpaths, and set up utility ducts to prevent unnecessary digging. Officials said they are finalising the project details and will float a tender after it gets approved.

?We have conducted a preliminary study. Some critical stretches have been identified which need to be revamped to facilitate the smooth movement of traffic, both vehicular and pedestrian. We are now working on finalising the project details and once approved, we will initiate the tender process,? a senior GMDA official said.
