The Sarita Vihar overview, connecting Badarpur with Ashram, will remain partially closed between July 25 and 8 August for the planned repair and rehabilitation work. This will mainly affect the operation of Faridabad-Delhi-Noida.
The first overpass Sarita Vihar, who connects Delhi with Noida in Uttar Pradesh, Faridabad in Haryana and the pockets of the southeast Delhi, will undergo his first major repair in 24 years.
In Joy, Delhi Traffic Police said that the Public Work Department (PWD) will carry out repair work for 15 days, during which half of the overpass will remain closed for the movement of the vehicle.
However, the second half of the road will remain functional to maintain partial operation.
The Hindustan Times report, which quoted PWD officials, said long-term repairs and rehabilitation work began in October 2024, but were suspended in the middle due to the growing level of pollution and subsequent promotion of the graded action plan (GRAP) to alleviate dust in Delhi-NCR.
Vehicles passengers from Badarpur towards Ashram via Mathura Road are recommended that alternative routes take place.
Counseling said that the movement of heavy and commercial vehicles on Mathura Road from Badarpur towards the overpass Sarita Vihar will be limited as needed to ensure a smooth traffic flow.
Emergency vehicles will be allowed at the overpass, but it is recommended that they avoid the section due to possible overload.
Counseling, which aims to minimize public inconvenience, urges commuting to avoid the affected section and use alternative routes.
