The four loops will allow seamless movement towards the Delhi airport, Delhi-Gurugram expressway, Dwarka Expressway and SPR.
The cloverleaf intersection as part of the Dwarka Expressway is nearing completion and will be inaugurated next month by the Union Road Transport and Highways Minister, Nitin Gadkari, as per a Times of India report.
This impressive four-way junction with ramps on four sides is situated close to the Kherki Daula toll plaza and will connect — National Highway-48, the Dwarka Expressway, also called the Northern Peripheral Road (NPR), with the Southern Peripheral Road (SPR), which is on the other side of the Delhi-Gurugram Expressway.
The cloverleaf stretch has a circumference of over 2 km and will be one of India's largest structures, resembling a larger version of the junctions at Dhaula Kuan in New Delhi.
Once ready, the four loops of the flyover will allow seamless movement towards key routes to get to the Delhi airport, Delhi-Gurugram Expressway, Dwarka Expressway, SPR and the under-construction Delhi-Mumbai Expressway.
It will also make it easier for residents of new sectors in Gurugram to access NH-8 without having to go all the way to Kherki Daula toll plaza.
The cloverleaf has been built as part of the Dwarka Expressway project’s package four — with the Gurugram portion of the expressway scheduled to be completed this year.
However, the Delhi section will take longer to complete, as per the report.
Following earlier reports, construction on this particular segment had been delayed for more than a year due to legal disputes regarding two small plots nearby.
However, the district administration and other civic agencies were able to transfer ownership of these plots after receiving instructions from Gadkari and Gurugram Member of Parliament Rao Inderjit Singh.
"Its construction is almost complete and it is expected to open to the public in coming weeks," the Gurugram MP stated, adding that Gadkari will inaugurate the cloverleaf and inspect the Dwarka Expressway work.
Rao Inderjit Singh recently met with Gadkari to discuss various projects that will benefit the National Capital Region.
During the meeting, they also discussed construction of the Gurugram-Pataudi-Rewari Highway, progress in the Dwarka Expressway project and ongoing work on the Delhi-Jaipur Highway (NH-48).
