The Noida Authority have announced to extend the length of the elevated road being built on Master Plan Road No. 1 by approximately one and a half kilometres. It will now start near the Sector 3 Rajnigandha underpass and extend to Sector 60. The development is expected to provide for the daily commuters from Noida and Greater Noida who travel to Delhi.
The authorities will commission a detailed report (PDR) for the entire route from IIT Roorkee. The elevated is likely to be 5.43 kilometres long and will have six lanes. The construction cost will approximately stand at Rs 700 crore.
Officials said that the newly constructed road will connect Sector 60 to Master Plan Road No. 2.
The design of the proposed road will be created by IIT Roorkee. The authorities will provide a sum of Rs 2.5 crore for the project.
The road was planned to be built nearly 16-17 years ago. Former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav laid the foundation stone for the elevated road in 2014. A related sign is installed at the Sector 12 Chowda turn. At that time, the road was supposed to be built from Sector 10 to the 12-22 intersection. After the Samajwadi Party left the power, the project was shelved. Now, the authorities have once again taken up the project.
This elevated road has been talked about for years, but this time things look more serious with IIT Roorkee involved.
This elevated road can become one of the most important traffic upgrades in Noida, especially for people traveling daily between Delhi and Sector 62 side.
If everything goes as planned, this project can improve Delhi to Noida office travel, reduce peak-hour stress, make long-distance travel smoother, however sometimes, timelines are still not confirmed since the project is currently at the survey stage. For now, the focus is on getting the design right.
