Commuters in Delhi will be able to travel at ease between north, east and south Delhi as the Public Works Department (PWD) has proposed to construct an 18km elevated road between Signature Bridge and Delhi-Noida-Direct Flyway. The road will start at Wazirabad and will end at Mayur Vihar. The road will decongest 20 spots that would impede a smooth drive for travellers.

The Union transport ministry has cleared a plan to build a 155-km corridor between Akshardham in east Delhi and Saharanpur in Uttar Pradesh. The corridor, which will pass through Loni near the Delhi-Ghaziabad border, will decongest the east Delhi areas and allow commuters to reach the Saharanpur-bound National Highway (NH-709B) from the NH-24 directly. Currently, commuters from western Uttar Pradesh have to pass through the areas such as Shastri Park, New Usmanpur, Khajuri Khas and Bhajanpura to reach Saharanpur highway that starts at Loni.

From next week onwards, drive between Vasant Kunj and IGI Airport will get smoother and 30 minutes shorter as the underpass on NH-8 connecting Mahipalpur Bypass and Aerocity will get operational. The 135-metre underpass with dual carriageway will help traffic bypass the congestion at Mahipalpur Village and cut down the long detour to enter the airport premises.

The Delhi-Meerut Expressway, a 438-kilometre-long highway, links national capital Delhi to Lucknow via Ghaziabad, Hapur, Moradabad, Bareilly, Shahjahanpur and Sitapur. Although the highway has been recognised as a fast-developing affordable housing corridor in the National Capital Region (NCR), its expansion plan has assumed more significance in the wake of frequent traffic jams and lack of public transport.

With property tax payments pending in crores, the Kolkata Municipal Corporation has decided to simplify the Unit Area Assessment (UAA) system for property tax calculation. The decision has come in accordance with the lukewarm response to the new system which was first introduced in April 2017. The new modifications will be made keeping in mind the middle-class tax payers. According to the media reports, the civic body will be changing the parameters that affect the zoning of properties which will eventually reduce the tax rate.
