Ring road set for a makeover

Published on: 

In a move to decongest the national Capital’s arterial routes, the Delhi Government has decided to redevelop the 55-km Mahatma Gandhi Road Corridor (Ring Road), one of the busiest routes connecting key parts of the city. The PWD has tasked AECOM India Pvt Ltd to conduct feasibility studies, traffic analyses and prepare the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the corridor. The consultancy’s mandate includes scientifically backed designs, 3D models, cost estimates, and phased implementation strategies.

The 55-kilometre-long project aims to improve connectivity, decongest major intersections and promote sustainable urban transport through elevated corridors built over the existing Ring Road.

Speaking about the project, PWD Minister Parvesh Sahib Singh Verma said, “Mahatma Gandhi Road is not just a transport corridor — it’s Delhi’s backbone. This project marks a decisive step toward creating a connected and efficient Capital.”
