People can use the underpasses at Rajeev Chowk and Signature Towers from today


The underpasses of Rajeev Chowk and Signature Towers that were slated for inauguration on January 10 will finally be inaugurated today. The construction of these two underpasses by NHAI (National Highways Authority of India) had caused major traffic hurdles in the last six months.

While the Signature Tower underpass entailed a budget of Rs 215 crores the one at Rajeev Chowk cost Rs 235 crores. According to sources, foot over bridges are also going to be constructed in these areas for the convenience of pedestrians.

The Signature Tower underpass will facilitate smooth access from Sector 14 and Sector 17 to the Huda City Metro Station. On the other hand, with this underpass in place residents of South City 1 will also have an easier access to Sector 14. As people from Sohna Road and Old Gurgaon start using this underpass to commute to Central Delhi, a major traffic congestion at Rajeev Chowk shall be averted.

Another major underpass will be constructed at the IFFCO Chowk. Once it comes into place, traffic will be regulated for condominiums on MG Road.
