Second phase of Jehangir Chowk-Rambagh flyover to be inaugurated tomorrow

The second phase of the Jehangir Chowk-Rambagh flyover will be inaugurated and thrown open for vehicular traffic tomorrow on May 22, officials said.

This will be after over five years since work on the flyover project started in October 2013 and one year after the first phase thereof was inaugurated and thrown open in May last year, said an official.

This particular phase of the flyover stretches 1.04 kilometres from Rambagh to Alochi Bagh having been constructed at a cost of 37.5 crore rupees.

It is expected to result in substantial traffic relief to commuters traveling from areas across this stretch towards Lal Chowk being expected to reduce travel time between the said areas from 15 minutes to 1 minute, he said.
