With the widening of the Dabri-Palam road, over one lakh commuters using the stretch to enter Dwarka on a daily basis will now get relief from the gruelling traffic snarls, Delhi traffic police officials maintained.
A Dwarka court had, on March 14, vacated the permanent injunction it had passed against the Delhi Development Authority (DDA) in December 2016, restraining it from demolishing three shops in a building, situated in the middle of the slip road connecting Pankha Road to Dwarka.
The stretch had been witnessing snarls as the 150-feet-wide road shrinks to less than 20 feet at the point where the shops are located. The order, officials said, will help provide a much-needed route for entering Dwarka from west and north Delhi.
