The Uttar Pradesh government has released ₹31 crore to initiate the construction of two extensions to the 10.3 km Hindon elevated road in Ghaziabad, with work expected to start in the next two months. The project aims to improve traffic flow for thousands of daily commuters from areas like Vasundhara and Indirapuram, who currently rely on National Highway 9 to travel to Delhi. The extensions will include a new ascent ramp from Kanawani to the elevated road and a descent ramp at Vasundhara, enhancing connectivity. The total cost of the project has been revised to ₹91 crore, significantly reduced from the initial estimate of ₹200 crore after design changes were made. The elevated road itself, which connects Raj Nagar Extension to UP-Gate, was inaugurated on March 30, 2018, and has not seen any infrastructure updates since then.
