Delhi to build 14-km elevated corridor for traffic relief

Delhi will soon have a 14-kilometer elevated corridor connecting INA to Nelson Mandela Marg. This project aims to reduce traffic congestion on the Ring Road and is funded by the Delhi government and the Ministry of Urban Affairs. The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) will manage the construction, which includes a tunnel to improve access to Indira Gandhi Airport. The project was initially approved in July 2021 but faced delays due to funding issues. Recent discussions at the Prime Minister's Office led to NHAI's involvement, reviving the project. The final cost will be determined after a detailed project report is completed.
