Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday inaugurated the 19-km long Haryana section of Dwarka Expressway, which will improve traffic flow and ease congestion between Delhi and Gurugram on NH-48, and boost economic activities in the National Capital Region.
The statement said that as Dwarka Expressway has been developed as a high-speed corridor, the movement of high-speed vehicles may pose a risk to the safety of comparatively slow-moving vehicles.
Therefore, vehicles like two/three wheelers and non-motorised vehicles have been prohibited from using the corridor, it added.
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) said such vehicles can use the service lane provided on either side of the expressway.
Leveraging technology, advanced CCTV Cameras have also been deployed on the corridor to check violations and enhance road safety.
Also, to provide a robust Incident Management System dedicated expressway patrol vehicles and ambulances have been deployed on the corridor.
In addition, the services of toll-free National Highway Helpline Number 1033 are also available to assist commuters in case of any emergency/ non-emergency situations.
