New Six-Lane Road Over Dwarka Expressway Tunnel To Be Opened

A six-lane road has been built above the Dwarka Expressway Tunnel, near Yashbhoomi to Mahipalpur and is set to be open for traffic movement in August. The six-lane road will lessen traffic congestion on the Delhi-Gurugram Expressway and will boost connectivity between the two cities. Over 1.5 lakh vehicles are expected to pass through it every day.
