Underpass planned at Rs 115 cr at IIT-Delhi on NH 24

To ease traffic on the busy NH 24, the Noida Authority has sent an estimate of Rs 115 crore for a proposed underpass at the crossroads of the highway to IIT-Delhi. Noida Authority has sent an estimate of Rs 115 crore for the planned underpass. Tender proceeding for the underpass will be initiated once the approval from IIT-Delhi come through and the Authority is expecting the approval by September 15.

Construction on the underpass is expected to commence in November after a developer is selected through e-tendering. The proposed underpass and the cloverleaves will streamline traffic movement from Noida to NH-24 via Sector-62 and between Delhi and Ghaziabad.

Constructing of an underpass on the highway will benefit over 1 lakh commuters who use the stretch daily. Snarls are reported regularly on NH-24. The situation gets worse when vehicles coming from Vijay Nagar merge with traffic coming from Indirapuram at the CISF crossing. This leads to constant jams on the 150m-long stretch between the CISF crossing and Model Town crossing, with those taking the left turn from Sector-63 towards Noida also getting stuck.
