NEW DELHI: Commuters are likely to breeze through the busy Ashram crossing in south Delhi from March onwards as the construction of an underpass will be completed by the end of February, officials said.
According to Public Works Department (PWD), nearly 90% of the work has been completed. At present, the work related to ramp-covering on both sides of the underpass is being carried out, which will be completed next month.
"The project is in its last leg.
After the ramp-covering work, only finishing touches will remain. We are hopeful that the underpass will be ready for use from March," a senior PWD official told PTI on condition of anonymity. He, however, said the pace of work has slowed down a bit in the last fortnight due to rain.
