The Kherki Majra underway on Dwarka Expressway is all set to become a much-needed infrastructure landmark in the area, offering a seamless experience to everyday commuters. This crucial project, marred by earlier delays due to land acquisition issues, is now set for completion within the next six months.
Strategic Connectivity to NH-8:
The underpass has a prominent location, providing a direct link from the new sectors to NH-8 via Dwarka Expressway. This development holds tremendous importance given the rapid urban expansion in this Gurugram sector.
Despite being nearly 70% complete, construction was halted earlier due to a dispute between a landowner and authorities over compensation for the approach road. Given the importance of the passage, NHAI is wasting no time to facilitate the construction. The issue has now been resolved. With the land in their possession, they plan to utilise resources for the remaining work, aiming for completion in approximately six months. This timeline is relevant for communities and businesses eagerly awaiting the underpass to be ready for use.
Community Connectivity:
Spanning over 600 meters, the underpass is a vital link on the Dwarka Expressway. It makes the commute for residents of sectors 102 and 102A much easier, especially to sectors 101, 104, 9, 10, and Hero Honda Chowk. Improved connectivity is aimed to enhance regional mobility and will reduce travel times.
NHAI’s earlier construction of slip roads along the eastern end of the underpass on Dwarka Expressway solves the traffic issue from the Basai railway overbridge, a project by the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA). These additions enhance overall traffic flow.
Residents’ Expectations:
The construction and the completion of the underpass are eagerly awaited by the local residents and commuters. The narrow roads were often congested with heavy commercial vehicles. This will be a great relief for people in many ways. The underpass opening will ensure smooth public transportation saving the public their hard-earned money too.
In conclusion, the imminent completion of the Kherki Majra underpass on the Dwarka Expressway marks a big moment for the people in the region. It addresses the slugging traffic problems while unlocking fresh opportunities for development and connectivity. As NHAI gears up to resume construction, commuters and residents can anticipate smoother journeys and improved accessibility in the near future. This underpass is a gateway to progress, enhancing the lives of the communities it serves.
