The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) in a statement said the DPR will examine long-term traffic management and engineering solutions for one of the busiest transport nodes in Delhi and will complement the ongoing infrastructure development initiatives in the region.

The Sarai Kale Khan Loop serves as a strategic convergence point for traffic originating from Ashram, Noida and Sarai Kale Khan.

With the upcoming commissioning of the DND–Sohna National Highway corridor, the location is expected to witness a substantial increase in traffic volumes, necessitating timely intervention to ensure smooth and efficient traffic movement, it said.

The DPR will evaluate suitable infrastructure interventions aimed at enhancing capacity, reducing travel time and ensuring safety as well as more efficient movement of vehicles through the corridor.
