Delhi, which has more than 33,000 kilometers of roads, is one of the worst major worldwide capitals in terms of traffic jams, which worsens the air pollution, increases unnecessary fuel consumption and traffic accidents.
Gadkari said that his service – known for his abbreviation Morth – performs a study on the viability of this project and has been appointed consultant.
“We are planning to produce tunnels and research and study … Right from the Tallator Stadium to Grrabram. Currently, the project is in the study and research phase. For that, we named one consultant,” he said in an interview.
Gadkari said that the tunnel could shorten the travel time between the Tallatora stadium and the gurrogram along the road from at least an hour-in the day-time-time-on only 10-15 minutes.
The distance between the Talkatora stadium and the gurrogram is approximately 28-30 km, depending on the route.
“We want to reduce traffic jams in Delhi and at the same time we want to free it from air pollution,” Gadkari said, adding that after the study, better estimates of traveling times through this tunnel will be provided.
The air quality index in Delhi (AQI) often pierces “serious”. Delhi breathed “poor”, “very poor” or “serious” air for more than 40% of the year, each year from 2022, according to the Central Council for Control (CPCB). AQI zero up to 50 is considered “good”, 51-100 “satisfactory”, 101-200 “mild”, 201-300 “poor”, 301-400 “very poor” and 401-500 ‘heavy’.
Gadkari added that Morth has the main plans for the Delhi road. “Now we are thinking … We have new projects.” £30-40,000 crore for Delhi, ”he said.
Morth assigned the corpus £1 trillion for decongesting dilli’s roads. Delhi was part of key highway projects aimed at shortening travel time. For example, a 12% shortening of a length of 1,386 km of the Dilli-Mumbai motorway was reduced to half the travel time from 24 hours to 12 hours.
Similarly, traveling from Delhi to Katra via Amritsar drop from 12 hours to six hours due to a 5% reduction in the length of the corridor 669 km, the data Morth showed.
Yet the growing preferences of people for the use of private vehicles before public transport show a worrying trend, said S. Velurugan, the main scientist and head of transport engineering and security division.
“Delhi has more than 33,000 km of roads, much higher than another metro in the country. Ideally, the overload should be reduced.
In the years 2024-25, the Ministry of Transport registered about 450,000 two rounds, slightly more than 190,000 cars, 2,300 buses and about 17,200 trucks, according to Vahan, a register of vehicles of the central government.
At the beginning of this week, the Dilli government introduced a ban on the sale of fuel for vehicles at the end of life-10-year-old diesel vehicles and fifteen-year-old gasoline vehicles-these vehicles usually low fuel efficiency, leading to higher carbon emissions.
Delhi’s government later introduced a ban h
“Volatile engines and frequent stopping of vehicles in transport release significantly more carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, particles, etc. due to incomplete combustion of fossil fuels. They also show that overloaded operation can increase the fuel consumption of AO 20-30%, leading to proportional emissions.” (Terer), ”said intensity and specific sources), which is assuming that it is an intense source), which is proportional to an increase in emissions,”, which is in accordance with transport and determination and associated. Tank.
On 13 March, answering the question about transport overload in Delhi in Lok Sabha, Gadkari stated that the police in Delhi identified 134 places in the city, where the operation often stopped, mainly because of construction work, encroachment and a large volume of operation.
The official of the Ministry of Transport in Delhi, on condition of anonymity, stated that the projects for overloading the operation were solved by the Department of Public Work in Delhi (PWD). Minister PWD’s office in Delhi did not answer Mint.
