An essential requirement for the area, a railway over bridge (ROB) at Sector 37D holds significant promise. It will offer residents of Basai, Sectors 9, 36, 37C & 37D, and neighboring areas direct and convenient access to the Dwarka Expressway. The ROB will connect old Gurugram with the new sectors on the Dwarka Expressway, not only improving intra-city connectivity but also transforming the last-mile connectivity between new Gurugram and metro stations and the city’s bus station.
Furthermore, the proposed location of the ROB is on a revenue road – narrow and inadequate to accommodate vehicles at present, resulting in congestion. The route where the ROB is proposed, near the Basai water treatment plant and NBCC housing complex, is a busy road as it connects Garhi, Harsaru, and other villages. In the absence of the ROB, the railway track or crossing here is currently managed manually, leading to long traffic jams on both sides when trains pass.
It’s important to note that the Haryana government has granted licenses to many real estate promoters in the city who have developed or are developing numerous commercial and residential projects in Sector 37C & Sector 37D. However, they lack easy access to the Dwarka Expressway due to the railway line in between. As a result, residents are left with no choice but to approach the Dwarka Expressway via the Basai flyover.
The Haryana government also plans to build or develop a Global City in the area, which is a high-potential real estate zone. The residents of localities on both sides of the railway line, from Rewari to Delhi, will benefit from the ROB. The Gurugram Metropolitan Development Authority (GMDA) will construct the ROB and widen the road to accommodate vehicles on this busy route.
Presently, navigating this route proves challenging, with residents enduring a three to four-kilometer journey filled with twists and turns, leading to unnecessary consumption of fuel, energy, and time.
Sectors such as 99, 99A, and others will also benefit from the ROB, as they currently face challenges commuting to and from the city due to the lack of easy railway line crossings. It’s worth noting that the Delhi-Gurugram-Rewari railway line, which separates old Gurugram from new Gurugram, still has manually managed crossings at many points.
Signature Global, a trustworthy real estate promoter, has delivered numerous housing and commercial projects, has appreciated the ROB plan, as it’s a timely solution to the commuting problems of Gurugram residents.
