Not only this, it will also prevent the accidents. In future aspects this stretch will also play a major role to reach Jewar airport in a short span of time."
The project plan was prepared by the Public Works Department (PWD). The estimated cost of the 514 meter long and 21 meter flyover is more than Rs 11.50 crore.
"The construction of the flyover started in June 14, 2019 and was completed in a very short span in March 31, 2021. Despite the Covid-19 pandemic the PWD department took only 21 months for the complication of this project, which is very appreciative," Chautala told the media.

A flyover on the dangerous spot will surely reduce the accidents on the corridor," PWD executive engineer Sandeep Singh said.
