Residents seek a service road along Dwarka eway in Gurgaon

Gurgaon: RWA representatives from sectors along Dwarka Expressway submitted a memorandum to GMDA's CEO and demanded service roads from sectors 99A to 115. In a meeting on Tuesday with SK Chahal, advisor (admin) to the GMDA, and Arun Dhankar, chief engineer of the infrastructure division-1, the residents emphasised the need for better connectivity with internal roads and proper pedestrian infrastructure, noting that their demand for additional traffic signals had been ruled out. The incomplete road patch near Suncity and Max Heritage societies was also discussed. Residents said that the lack of service roads on both sides of the 75-metre-wide stretch made commuting increasingly unsafe. With no designated access lanes, motorists were often forced to drive on the wrong side, leading to frequent near-misses and fatal accidents. Pedestrians, too, they pointed out, were left with no option but to walk dangerously close to speeding traffic in the absence of footpaths.

Residents said that in the absence of any signalised junctions or designated entry points, access to sector roads and internal streets remained restricted and hazardous. Another major concern flagged was the deteriorating condition of the Raghopur Road, one of the key connectivity links that remain in limbo due to jurisdictional complexities between Delhi and Haryana. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo Meanwhile, a GMDA official said several of the issues raised by residents are already under review. "Some of the demands that fall within our jurisdiction will be examined. Site inspections will be carried out wherever necessary, and action will be taken accordingly," the official added.
