Harnandipuram set to get Delhi link: GDA
Ghaziabad, May 1 -- The Ghaziabad Development Authority (GDA) is planning a new elevated road linking the upcoming township to the existing Hindon elevated road to enhance connectivity to Delhi and support its proposed Harnandipuram township, officials said.
The new stretch, estimated to be about 2 km long, is currently in the planning stage, and a formal proposal is expected to be presented in upcoming board meetings. The project aims to provide a signal-free commute from Harnandipuram to Delhi by connecting commuters to the Karhera rotary near Raj Nagar Extension (RNE), from where they can take existing 10.3-km Hindon elevated road to reach UP-Gate at the Delhi border.
"The new elevated road is expected to be about 2km long and will save commuters from traffic near RNE. This will also boost the prospects of the Harnandipuram scheme, as its occupants will also get direct link to Delhi," said Rudresh Shukla, GDA's media coordinator.
GDA officials estimate the cost of the new elevated road to be between Rs.200 crore and Rs.250 crore. They said elevated road will complement the planned 45-metre-wide road that connects the Harnandipuram township to Delhi Meerut Road.
The Hindon elevated road, which currently offers a 10-12 minute signal-free commute from Karhera rotary to UP-Gate near Ghazipur in East Delhi, is already being used by commuters from RNE. GDA intends to provide similar convenience to residents of Harnandipuram.
The proposed 521-hectare Harnandipuram township is planned behind RNE and near the Delhi Meerut Road. It will be built on land belonging to eight villages
Earlier, on March 29, GDA announced land procurement rates for five of these villages, whose combined 336.84 hectares of land are to be used for Phase 1 of the township project....
