The National Capital territory of Delhi is a massive metropolitan
area located in the heart of northern India. It is bordered by
Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. 5 National Highways, NH-1, NH-2,
NH-38, NH-310 and NH-324 converge in Delhi.
Over the years vehicles and pollution levels have increased
exponentially, resulting in severe traffic congestion. NH
interconnectivity needs to be improved for seamless
trac movement.
To save Delhi through decongestion, Ministry of Road
Transport and Highways (MoRTH) and National Highways
Authority of India (NHAI) have taken up the comprehensive
exercise of widening, upgradation and development of
the arterial NH network in the National Capital. Multiple
challenges such as land acquisition, shifting of utilities and
clearances are being overcome. NH-1, NH-8 and NH-24 are
being developed by NHAI.
A total of Rs. 60,500 Cr are being invested towards building
new road infrastructure in NCT Delhi, which will soon emerge
as a healthier and cleaner metropolis.
