*Salient Features of the Project*
The project has been constructed to avoid Red Light on the Mayur Vihar Phase-l Junction, which will reduce the huge amount of Carbon Dioxide Emission and noise pollution by the halted vehicles on the Red Light. These ramps and service roads will save approximately 1.5 km of the travel distance. The congestion of traffic for hours led to a huge mess and nuisance, especially during the peak office hours, which will end after the opening of ramps & service roads.
