Properties in Patiala Highway Zirakpur

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will be inaugurating the 83-km-long Kundli-Manesar section of the Western Peripheral Expressway on November 19. The expressway will offer signal-free connectivity to Palwal from Sonepat, bypassing Delhi while also diverting as many as 50,000 heavy vehicles away from Delhi. Once completed, the entire peripheral expressway would form a ring road around Delhi, spanning a total length of 270 kilometres. Locations such as Gurgaon, Manesar, Ghaziabad, Greater Noida, Palwal, Kundli and Sonepat are likely to witness sizeable real estate growth with the help of the expressway.

According to a report launched by the Mumbai Environmental Social Network, while private vehicles are taking up 77 per cent of the road space in Mumbai, the public buses have only 2.2 per cent share. So, what are the challenges that make public transport less popular among people across major cities? Read on to know. 

Since major hurdles are clear, the Haryana Shahari Vikas Pradhikaran (HSVP) would now complete the mutation process of an 18-km land stretch in favour of the Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA). The GMDA would also transfer a 90-metre stretch to the NHAI for construction of the elevated stretch.

The Delhi Metro is constructing a Metro line in Ghaziabad that would connect New Bus Stand with Kashmere Gate ISBT, Rohini via Dilshad Garden. The metro line is expected to get operational by September 2018. The new Metro line will pass through the Sahibabad Industrial Area and will significantly impact the residential areas lying in proximity where the infrastructure is poor.

The Delhi Development Authority has approved a proposal for the construction of a flyover between Apsara Border and Ghazipur intersection on the National Highway-24. To be constructed by Delhi’s Public Works Department, the two-km corridor will help decongest some of the key areas of east Delhi.
