Amit Shah Inaugurates Delhi's Barapullah Phase-3 Elevated Corridor and Related Projects
Union Home Minister Amit Shah inaugurated Delhi's long-delayed Barapullah Phase-3 elevated corridor, a 3.5-km signal-free link connecting Mayur Vihar Phase I and Sarai Kale Khan, extending the existing corridor to about 9 km. The project, approved in 2014 and completed after multiple delays and cost revisions to around Rs 1,635 crore, includes India's first flyover with a dedicated cycle track and pedestrian facilities. The corridor aims to reduce travel time between East Delhi, Noida, and South Delhi, easing congestion and improving connectivity. The inauguration also included the Mukarba Chowk underpass and foundation stones for two new flyovers in South Delhi. Traffic advisories were issued for the opening day due to expected congestion.
