Govt Plans Elevated Corridor to Ease Inner Ring Road Traffic
The Morning Standard
|July 15, 2025
In a move aimed at easing traffic congestion in the national capital, the Rekha Gupta government is planning to construct an elevated corridor over the city's Inner Ring Road.
The Inner Ring Road currently spans around 55 kilometers, starting from the Shalimar Bagh area in north Delhi and extending to Azadpur. However, the proposed elevated corridor is expected to be approximately 80 kilometers long, taking into account ramps, loops, and additional link roads to improve connectivity and address bottlenecks.
The cost of constructing an elevated road is estimated at about ₹100 crore per kilometer. This project is estimated to be completed at a cost of ₹5,500-6,000 crore.
