Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will inaugurate an elevated road from Vikaspuri to Meerabagh on Sunday. Deputy Chief Minister, Manish Sisodia will be the chief guest on the occasion and the function will be presided over by PWD Minister Satyendar Jain.
With the completion of this elevated road project which has provision for rain water harvesting, following five intersections will become signal free: Anand Kunj T-Junction, Manohar Nagar Crossing, Keshopur crossing, Sabji Mandi T-Junction and Meera Bagh T-Junction. Commuters will save 12 minutes of traffic time with this elevated road becoming functional. Smooth and uninterrupted traffic on this stretch is expected to save emission of atleast 38 tonnes of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) per day.
Meanwhile, Former Congress MP Mahabal Mishra and his supporters today “forcefully” opened an elevated corridor between Vikaspuri and Meera Bagh, a day before Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was scheduled to formally inaugurate it, prompting PWD to file a police complaint. A government official on this account said that the PWD has filed a complaint in the matter.
