[Resolved]  Ghaziabad Development Authority/up Traffic Police — Shipra-noida sec 62 underpass a mess

This is to bring to your notice the miserable condition and management o[censored]nder pass on NH 24 between indirapuram Ghaziabad and noida sector-62.

Its really sad to see this condition of the underpass which is just over a year old and that too hardly serving the purpose for which it was constructed in the first place.

I am resident of indirapuram and have to travel to sector 62 daily morning for my office, which is a 5 mins drive(ideally). But most of the times it is really impossible to drive my car through the underpass at office hours and i have to take the highway to reach sector 62 which takes more than half an hour.

This is the plight of hundreds of commuters travelling to noida from Indirapuram.
The main problems :
1) No maintenance of the road leading to the tunnel, full of potholes.
Just a few months back major roads in noida were renovated, but the road leading to the tunnel was untouched. Why is that ? Noida authority had done their part and ghaziabad authority dint??

2) No traffic police to regulate the movement of vehicles.
Its a free for all in the office hours. No lanes. In a narrow tunnel like these where there should be only 2 lanes for the incoming/outgoing traffic its a total chaos with tens of lanes on one side itself with bikes, scooters, cars, trucks trying to squeeze in.
Tractors, trucks heavy vehicles also using the narrow tunnel.

The main purpose of this underpass was to de-congest the traffic on NH24. The initial proposal was to construct 3 underpasses : one near Shipra Mall, another at Kala Pathar and the third near the Indirapuram police station. The plan was shelved for god known reasons.

Now only 1 exists and i dont see what purpose it is solving??
Residents need more underpasses and proper maintenance and traffic management of the existing one, the least they can expect from the authorities.

Thanks,
Sushil
