Delhi Double Decker Flyover on Pink Line Aims For Year End Completion

A double-decker flyover being constructed along the Pink Line corridor in Delhi is scheduled for completion by the end of the year as part of Phase four of the metro expansion. The project combines a metro viaduct on the upper deck with a road flyover on the lower deck to integrate rail and road movement within the same right of way. It forms part of the Maujpur Majlis Park corridor, a key stretch that helped complete the near circular Pink Line route across the capital.\n\nThe dual-level design places metro tracks above and vehicular lanes below, enabling simultaneous movement of mass transit and private vehicles while reducing surface footprint. Authorities say the approach is intended to optimise land use in densely built areas where conventional widening is not feasible. By stacking infrastructure vertically, planners aim to increase capacity without significant displacement or additional land acquisition.\n\nThe Bhajanpura-Yamuna Vihar stretch measures approximately one point four kilometres and is among the main sections featuring the double-decker configuration. Metro operations on parts of the corridor have progressed while work on road ramps and ancillary infrastructure continues, contributing to a revised completion timeline. The broader Pink Line now functions as India's first ring metro system, linking multiple radial corridors to improve cross-city connectivity and reduce reliance on central interchange stations.\n\nSimilar double-decker structures are being planned on other corridors under Phase four, including stretches on the Magenta Line and forthcoming routes, as part of a strategy to expand the metro network while upgrading surface roads. Once operational, the structure is intended to ease congestion on arterial roads and improve last-mile connectivity to stations in north-east Delhi. The project illustrates a shift towards multi-modal infrastructure planning that seeks to deliver parallel mobility solutions within constrained urban corridors.
