Work on elevated stretch over DSC road put on fast track

NOIDA: The work on 5.5km elevated stretch, which is being built over Dadri-Surajpur-Chhalera (DSC) road to facilitate commuting between Noida and Greater Noida, has been put on fast track, officials of the Noida authority said on Monday. About 15% work on the ₹467-crore project has been completed and it will be completed by December next year, they said.

Earlier, the authority had extended the deadline to March 2022 due to the Covid-19 pandemic.

The proposed six-lane elevated road will start from Sector 39/43 crossing and end at Sector 82 T-point. Once developed, the elevated road will decongest major traffic in Noida’s Barola, Bhangel, and sectors 49, 45, 47 and 46, among other areas.
