Description

The project involves constructing a five-km tunnel between Shiv Murti-Mahipalpur (Dwarka Expressway) and Nelson Mandela Road (Vasant Kunj) to streamline traffic and reduce pollution in Delhi and its adjoining areas. The tunnel will have two underground tubes, each with three lanes, totaling six lanes, providing a signal-free alternate route between South Delhi and Dwarka/Gurugram. It will be equipped with modern facilities such as electro-mechanical systems, ventilation, fire safety, CCTV surveillance, control rooms, emergency exits, and cross-passages. The tunnel aims to ease traffic congestion on several major roads and serve as a key connector between Central/East Delhi and multiple major expressways and highways.
