Delhi Government Plans Elevated Corridors and Bridge to Reduce Traffic Congestion
The Delhi government is advancing plans to ease traffic congestion through multiple infrastructure projects, including elevated corridors and a cable-stayed bridge. The Public Works Department (PWD) is conducting a feasibility study for a 5.5-6 km elevated corridor on Aruna Asaf Ali Marg to create a signal-free route. Additionally, projects in north-east and west Delhi involve two elevated corridors and a cable-stayed bridge aimed at decongesting busy stretches, with completion targets extending to 2030. These initiatives seek to separate long-distance and local traffic, improving commute times across the city.
