In a bold move to alleviate congestion and curtail pollution, Delhi is undergoing a major infrastructure makeover, spearheaded by projects worth Rs 1.25 lakh crore. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta confirmed the plans, highlighting an elevated road from INA to IGI Airport among other initiatives.
After discussions with Union Minister Nitin Gadkari, Gupta shared that detailed reports for Rs 24,000 crore worth of projects have been completed. These include feasibility assessments for a tunnel between Sarai Kale Khan and the IGI airport, aiming to enhance the city's transport system.
Alongside NHAI, efforts funded by the Centre focus on expanding road networks, including a 7-km tunnel and connecting highways to neighboring regions, with the ultimate goal of creating a signal-free city while utilizing inert waste to construct roads, thus tackling waste mountains.
