Four new loops will be constructed on the Bhangel Elevated Road in Central Noida, providing traffic relief to over 100,000 people. The design for these loops has been submitted to IIT Delhi, and tenders will be issued following its approval.
To provide commuting facilities to over 100,000 people in Central Noida, four loops are to be constructed on the Bhangel Elevated Road. The design for these loops has been prepared. This design has been sent to IIT Delhi.
A tender for construction will be issued within 14 days, following approval from the IIT. General Manager (Civil) A.K. Arora stated that the approximately 4.5-kilometer-long elevated road was opened in November.
Where will the loops be constructed?
To facilitate entry and exit, two loops will be built on each side of the Sector-49/107 intersection. For traffic traveling from Sector-37 towards the 7X sectors, a loop will descend near the Hanuman statue. Similarly, for those traveling from the 7X sectors—via Phase 2—towards Surajpur, an ascending loop will be constructed. On the opposite side, a loop will be built to facilitate entry into and exit from Sector-107.
The Bhangel Elevated Road was constructed by the Uttar Pradesh Setu Nigam. As per the contract, the Nigam is also constructing the road running beneath it, which spans approximately five kilometers. This work is scheduled to be completed within three months. The Noida Authority itself will undertake the construction of the loops.
How much will these loops cost?
General Manager A.K. Arora stated that tenders will be issued once approval is received from IIT. All four loops will be constructed by a single company. If completed on schedule, this project will yield significant benefits.
The construction of these loops is estimated to cost approximately ₹45 crore. Their completion will significantly enhance the viability of the elevated road, as the 7X sector is home to the majority of residential societies in the area.
Currently, there are no loops available here for accessing or exiting the elevated road; consequently, its operational viability remains limited. Once constructed, however, the traffic volume on the elevated road is expected to increase. This will, in turn, have a positive impact on the expressway, where traffic congestion is expected to decrease.
