SURAT: The state government has allotted Rs 100 crore to Surat Municipal Corporation (SMC) to construct a six-lane flyover on Tapi River connecting Abrama to Valak village on ‘Outer Ring Road’ in the city.
According to SMC officials, this is a major development to the city’s infrastructure development and also ease city’s traffic congestion. Once this proposed 1.65km long flyover is constructed, vehicular traffic from Mumbai on National Highway (Palsana) need not enter Surat city and can go directly towards Variyav, Gothan and Sayan.
“The proposed flyover will be one of major flyovers on the outer ring road.
There will be total seven flyovers along the outer ring road. This will ease traffic in the city as people coming from Mumbai can bypass Surat city using this flyover while going towards Sayan village,” Banchhanidhi Pani, Surat municipal commissioner told TOI.
The proposed flyover will give major connectivity to the city’s northern and eastern part of the city.
“The 66.77 km long and 90 meter wide outer ring is being developed at a cost of Rs 4,000 crore in Surat city to ease traffic congestion in the city. Work on 17.32 km outer ring road connecting state as well as national highways is under progress,” the SMC official added.
