A twin-flyover project using single-pillar technology, with its foundation stone laid in March 2024 and a 24-month plan, was suspended indefinitely after traders and residents protested during the Lok Sabha election period over fears of business impact, even though soil testing and structural designs were already complete.
On record
The official record states: "Then-CM Manohar Lal Khattar said discussions with traders would continue and "if they agree, the project will be taken up" — effectively shelving it."
Filed as "Suspended indefinitely before construction started" and dated to Foundation stone laid March 7, 2024; put on hold soon after, this entry sits under the "₹127.33 crore" line of the public accounts.
What to expect
- Pillars reaching skyward with no deck to justify them.
- A signboard promising an opening date that has since passed, unbothered.
- Traffic queuing patiently beneath the unfinished span.
- Rebar exposed where the road was meant to continue.

Visitor reviews
“Found it by following a group of equally confused tourists. It anticipated every future except the immediate one.”
“Visited after an argument about whether it actually existed. The scaffolding has been up long enough to vote.”
“Went at golden hour, and it did photograph beautifully, to be fair. There is a hashtag, a mascot and a stalled crane.”
