The much-anticipated Delhi-Dehradun Expressway is nearing completion, with two key sections expected to be opened to the public by October. Here’s a detailed look at the current status and progress of this major infrastructure project! 🚀
🔹 Current Status and Progress
- Completion Status: The construction work from Akshardham to Khajuri Pushta and Khekra has reached 97% completion. Initially, the expressway was slated to open by August 15th, but due to slower construction progress, the project has been delayed by nearly a year. 🏗️
🔹 Expressway Route Details
The expressway will connect Akshardham to Khekra (Mavikalan), passing through:
- Laxmi Nagar
- Geeta Colony
- Lohe ka Pul (Kailash Colony)
- Shastri Park
- New Usmanpur
- Kartarnagar
- Khajuri Khas Chowk
- Bihari Pur
- Ankur Vihar
- Pavi Pushta (Loni)
- Mandola NBCC Township
This route will enhance connectivity across multiple key areas, significantly reducing travel time between Delhi and Dehradun. 🛤️
🔹 Reasons for Delay
- Two-Section Division: The project was divided into two sections, which led to delays in execution. 🕒
- Resource Allocation: In the Delhi segment, fewer large machines and laborers were deployed, further slowing progress. 🚧
- Land Disputes: A 50-meter stretch of land in the Loni area for the service road has been the subject of a dispute, contributing to the delay. ⚠️
🔹 NHAI Statement
An official from the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has confirmed that both sections of the expressway will be opened to the public by October. This is expected to provide much-needed relief to commuters. 🗓️
🔹 Sectional Expressway Length and Connectivity
- Length: This Section expressway spans approximately 32 kilometers.
- Elevated Section: Out of this, 17 kilometers within Delhi is elevated, ensuring a smooth and fast commute. 🚗
- Connectivity: Near Mavikalan village in Baghpat, the expressway will connect with the Eastern Peripheral Expressway, further enhancing connectivity across the region. 🌐
🔹 Project Status
Although the project was originally scheduled for completion last year, work on both sections is still ongoing. However, with significant progress made, the expressway is on track to be partially opened soon, marking a major milestone in improving regional infrastructure. 🛣️
Stay tuned as the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway gears up to offer a faster and more efficient route between these two major cities! 🚗✨
