There has been chaos in South Delhi as one part of Chirag Dilli flyover is set to reopen. This will provide some relief to those travelling between Nehru Enclave, Okhla and other parts of Southeast Delhi towards IIT Delhi.

The Public Works Department completed the repair work on one carriageway of the Chirag Dilli flyover. And the other part of the flyover is partially closed to begin work on it.

The PWD closed the stretch on March 12 to carry out work. Initially, the traffic police had issued an advisory saying that the flyover will be shut for 50 days, but after receiving several complaints, PWD Minister Atishi directed the department to expedite the work and complete it in a month.

The flyover is situated on one of the most congested routes of Outer Ring Road and sees heavy traffic on a daily basis. The stretch connects IIT, Munirka, IGI Airport, Okhla, CR Park, Savitri Cinema, Kalkaji, Nehru Place, etc.
