PWD to Repair Three Major Flyovers in South Delhi to Enhance Safety
The Public Works Department (PWD) plans to repair three major South Delhi flyovers: Nehru Nagar, AIIMS loops, and Barapullah Phase 1. The project aims to extend their lifespan and ensure safety by replacing expansion joints and conducting routine maintenance. Estimated at Rs 1.3 crore, the work is expected to finish within four months. Height barriers will be installed on Nehru Nagar flyover to restrict heavy vehicles, which are currently violating existing restrictions. Repairs will begin after coordination with traffic police due to potential traffic impact.
