To facilitate the construction of the Dwarka Expressway, the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) has diverted traffic between Mahipalpur and Rajokari on the NH 48 for 500 meters in Delhi/NCR.
Officials said to ease traffic flow, a 17-meter-wide ramp was built, wider than the existing NH 48. NHAI has also deployed traffic cops and installed cameras at detour points. Towing cranes were also used to keep traffic flowing smoothly. This agreement will likely continue for the next 3 months.

More than 3,000 vehicles pass through NH 48 every day. The construction of the expressway will help reduce traffic congestion, save valuable man hours and reduce Delhi-NCR vehicle pollution.
To relieve ever-increasing traffic, NHAI is building the Dwarka Expressway, which will bypass the NH 48 between Shiv Murti near IGI Airport and Kherki Daula near Manesar. It will be a 14-lane fully controlled expressway, the first of its kind in the country.
The state-of-the-art highway will feature an 8-lane elevated structure along with India’s first 4km 8-lane tunnel. The starting point of the Dwarka Expressway will be an interchange with two underpasses under the existing NH 48 in combination with an elevated corridor.
NHAI has taken all necessary precautions to ensure a smooth flow of traffic on the rerouted route to facilitate the construction of the Dwarka Expressway.
