The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) in Haryana is constructing sector-dividing roads in 20 sectors. A budget of Rs 99 crore has been allocated to build approximately 16 km roads in these sectors by July 2021.
The roads dividing the sectors 71/73 and 72/72A are already being built and 65 percent of the work has been completed. The work will finish by the end of May 2021.
Similarly, work on the sector 68/69 dividing road is almost 75 percent complete and likely to be completed within April 2021. The road dividing sector 73/74 is almost 65 percent complete and will be ready by June 2021.
Work on other roads under the project, however, is less than 50 percent complete. For instance, work in sectors 77, 78/79A and 78/79 is only 27 percent complete so far.
Once completed, the roads will improve connectivity between these sectors. Work on the roads dividing sectors 88B/89B and 88A/89A is only 25 percent done and officials are hoping to complete the work by June 2021.
The road dividing sector 73/74 is almost 65 percent complete and will be ready by June 2021 as well. The construction of these roads will benefit more than 50,000 commuters in New Gurugram.
GMDA also plans to build stormwater and sewage drains. The supply of piped water in some of these sectors is pending as roads have not been laid yet in these areas. Without roads, GMDA has not been able to lay down pipelines either.
