Congested Noida To Get Underpass, Flyover Before 2010 GamesBy Nikhil IAS, Section Development With a view to easing traffic congestion between Noida and Delhi during Commonwealth Games, the authority has planned to make signal free two most congested circles in Noida. An underpass will soon be constructed at Rajnigandha Chowk and an underpass and a flyover will come at Sector 37 roundabout. "The flyover at Sector 37 roundabout would be in semi-circular form opposite to elevated Metro Railway line. Commuters coming from Kalindi Kunj, Amity University and Film City would have direct access to DSC road that leads to Sector 40 and onwards, Phase-II, and Greater Noida," Sandeep Chandra, Senior Project Engineer of Noida said. Another part of this Rs 68 crore project is an underpass that will give a signal-free way to vehicles coming from DSC Road to the plush Sector 18 market. Those that follow this circle would have direct access to the market that otherwise sees cars piling up i n long queues during peak hours. The flyover will be 790 metres and underpass 600 metres in length. The project is estimated to be complete within 18 months from the date of starting of work. Another circle belonging to the signal-free facility is Rajnigandha Chowk at elevated Metro Railway line crossing. Commuters from DND flyover will enter the city through the underpass without waiting at the red light. After construction of this six-lane 660-metre underpass the vehicles that come from New Ashok Nagar and Goal Chakkar will have direct access to Atta Market. The tender of this Rs 28.28 crore project has been floated and work is expected to start within a month or two and would be completed before Commonwealth Games. "More flyovers and underpasses will come up in the city that will help in handling traffic pressure during Commonwealth Games and thereafter," said Mohinder Singh, CEO of Noida. An eight lane flyover is already under construction at T point in Sector 15 to make it signal free. Source: Siddheshwar Shukla From The Pioneer 15/Oct/2008
