Delhi: Cold last hurdle between Pragati Maidan corridor, Feb 15 deadline
Hindustan TimesConstruction work on the 1.2-km-long Pragati Maidan tunnel project and six underpasses under the integrated transit corridor development plan for Pragati Maidan is expected to be completed by February 15, government officials overseeing the key infrastructure project said. The tunnel road goes beneath Pragati Maidan, starting near National Sports Club of India on Purana Qila Road and ends on the Ring Road near the Pragati power station. The tunnel road and six underpasses — five on Mathura Road and one on Ring Road — will decongest the roads around Pragati Maidan which is being redeveloped. The Pragati Maidan corridor is a very important project which will be helpful in reduction of traffic in central Delhi while facilitating movement from south, south east and east Delhi,” he added.
