New Ring Road: To make Delhi pollution free and reduce the pressure of vehicles, there are preparations to run vehicles on the third ring road from December. Lieutenant Governor VK Saxena held a meeting with officials of several departments regarding the progress of work on the important Urban Extension Road (UER-2) of Delhi Development Authority (DDA). With the opening of this road, the burden of about 2.5 lakh vehicles is expected to be reduced from the Outer Ring Road and Inner Ring Road.
The journey from Alipur to Delhi airport will become very easy. Work is being done on UER-2 at a cost of Rs 3600 crore. There is a plan to run traffic on this road from December this year. Of the approximately 75.71 km long road, 54.21 km falls in Delhi and 21.50 km in Haryana. It will start from Delhi-Panipat near Alipur.
UER-2 is divided into five phases
It is divided into five phases. The first phase is from NH-1 Delhi-Panipat Highway Intersection to Karala-Kanjhawala Road (15.70 km), 99 percent of which is complete. The second phase is from Karala-Kanjhawala Road to Nangloi-Najafgarh Road (13.45 km), 83.70 percent of which is complete. The third phase is from Nangloi-Najafgarh Road to Dwarka Sector-24 (9.66 km), whose work has been completed. The remaining two phases fall in Haryana. It is claimed that with the complete completion of UER, traffic on the Outer Ring Road and Inner Ring Road will become easier. UER-2 will provide direct access between Sonipat and Gurugram in Haryana. Traffic will improve in Outer Delhi, West Delhi and South-West Delhi.
Infrastructure expected to change
The project connects National Highway-44 (Delhi-Chandigarh Highway) to National Highway-48 in South Delhi. Many other areas including Bawana, Narela-Kanjhawala, Mundka and Dwarka will be connected. A road from Sonipat/Jind, Najafgarh to Bahadurgarh also connects to the Dwarka Expressway from Gurugram in Haryana. It further connects the Eastern and Western Peripheral Expressways.
Do not construct pillars
In the meeting, the Lieutenant Governor discussed the existing obstacles and the way forward. Regarding the construction going on over the Mangeshpur drain, he directed that no pillar should be constructed for the road on the right side of the drain. He said that the construction of pillars in these drains obstructs the flow to a great extent.
