New Delhi, Nov 2 (UNI) Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Monday met the union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari, and held detailed discussions on the progress of various ongoing decongestion projects for the national capital, aimed at ensuring smooth movement of trafffic.
They also discussed the expansion of city's road network, and improving the overall transportation infrastructure by different ways and interventions with the help of the Centre.
At present, the Central Government, in collaboration with the state government in Delhi, along with NHAI is working on various road projects to the tune of crores of rupees, aimed at making the city congestion free.
The projects are expected to declutter major traffic intersections, that not only affect the commuters, but in a way also add to pollution.
The centre and state government aim to make Kalindi Kunj intersection congestion and signal free, and ensure better connectivity.
Delhi government is also working on to improve traffic near Mahipalpur Shiv Murti stretch, and also ease movement on the Peeragarhi-Mundka route, and further on the Rohtak Road.
Other than these, Delhi government is also going to develop a corridor along both sides of the Sahibi River, mostly known as the Najafgarh Drain which is going to be around 60 km-long, which is expected to ease traffic congestion across West and Southwest Delhi, once completed. Notably, once constructed, this is going to be an important alternative intra-city route, which will connect outer Delhi areas in South West Delhi, to the more central side of the city.
Similarly, work and planing is also underway to improve connectivity in different parts of the city. UNI APS CDS
