Gurugram: A plan to connect Nelson Mandela Marg in Delhi and MG Road in Gurugram through road links, which have been on the image board since 2018, will come for a discussion at the Ninth Authority meeting from GMDA on Friday.
National Bina Marga officials Authority of India (NHAI) has also been invited to discussion.
This project has become one of the debates because the original harmony breaks into Aravali Diversity Park, reaping protests from the groups of citizens, the environment and visitors to the park are usually worried about their fate.
The argument on the other hand is that the road is important for Decongest NH-8.
The agenda for GMA fulfilled the list of its main agenda appointed a discussion to “accelerate the Turugram linking project with Nelson Mandela Marg.” “This project has been discussed at the final authority meeting in April this year, but we cannot reach conclusions.
This was added to the agenda again at the request of members of the GMDA Advisory Board.
At the last meeting, Minister of Manohar’s head Lal Khattar (who was the chairman of the GMDA) had directed officials to take this project with NHAI officials, “said a GMDA official.
The source said GMDA had discussed the proposal with NHAI and looked for advice on harmony so that the disturbance in the Aravalli biodiversity garden minimized.
“We also want to explore the possibility of tunneling or building a flyover (for stretching through the park).
We need to involve NHAI in this project because the proposed road will be connected with two national highways (NH8 and NH 236), “said a GMDA official.
The Nhai Nirman project director Jambulkar told Toi, “The GMDA has invited us to meet with CM on Friday, where we will discuss this project with other stakeholders.” This route was originally proposed by Nhai but saved after meeting with hard resistance.
In 2019, as part of a comprehensive mobility plan (CMP), GMDA proposed a road similar to Nhai.
But the part mix with a stumbling stumbling stone garden, which leads to discussions on how to overcome this without damaging greenery and garden verses.
Vijay Dhasmana, Kurlator Aravalli Diversity Park, the first word of the government must conduct ecological assessment.
“We have filed our objections and has shown that the city, which has very little green cover, is unable to lose the biodiversity park.
Building a road past the park will damage the park completely.
An environmental assessment must be carried out and the sub-committee to discuss this project must be formed, “said Dhasmana.
Vaishali Rana Chandra, an environmental activist, added, “The government must analyze why such a necessary road section and who will benefit.
Why is even more discussed when the government does not know the environmental costs of the project? ” GMDA officials said the road was needed to overcome the problem of developing city traffic.
“The Delhi-Turugram Toll and MG Road is very crowded because of high traffic volume and cannot take additional burdens.
Congestion also drives to the level of pollution.
We need additional roads to Cater for the growth of traffic needs, “said a GMDA official.
Sarika Panda, who has worked extensively in mobility in the city, disagree.
“This city doesn’t need to go anymore.
It must take the relook on the existing design (road) for the problem of traffic fixing, “he said.
