Bridging the Gap: New Flyover to Unclog Outer Ring Road

The Delhi government has initiated the process to construct a new flyover on the Outer Ring Road to ease congestion along one of the city’s busiest traffic corridors.

The proposed flyover will connect the IFC Supplementary Drain near Keshopur Depot to Haiderpur, providing direct relief to commuters from Keshopur, Haiderpur, Punjabi Bagh, Pitampura, Shalimar Bagh, Rohini, and other parts of north-west Delhi that experience heavy peak-hour traffic. The project aims to reduce bottlenecks, improve inter-district connectivity, and ensure smoother movement for daily commuters, public transport, commercial vehicles, and emergency services.

Officials said a detailed feasibility study will evaluate traffic volumes, engineering design, environmental impact, and long-term sustainability to ensure the project is future-ready and executed without delays. The Public Works Department has approved consultancy services for the study, marking the next phase of project planning.
