NEW DELHI: Those fuming and fretting at Delhi’s Ashram Chowk and Sarai Kale Khan for months, it could be time to say good riddance from traffic snarls. The Sarai Kale Khan flyover promises better connectivity for central, east, and south-east Delhi, besides helping in a better air quality and noise-free commute.
Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday inaugurated the 630-meter, three-lane flyover, promising to make the city jam-free. He said the flyover cost was placed at Rs 66 crore. “But we built it for just Rs 50 crore, saving Rs 16 crore. So far, the government has saved Rs 557 crore in the construction of flyovers,” he said.
