A flyover connecting EM Bypass and New Town will take off from the Metropolitan crossing on EM Bypass and end near Panache Apartment in New Town’s Mahishbathan. For this project, Rs 150 crore was allocated in the state budget for 2024-2025. There will be two ramps — one each near Nicco Park and Nalban — that vehicles headed towards EM Bypass from Salt Lake can use, said an official of the state urban development department.
A third ramp will go down near College More in Sector V and can be used by vehicles heading to Sector V and other parts of Salt Lake or a part of New Town that neighbors Salt Lake. A 1.5km stretch of the 7.1km long flyover will run above the East Kolkata Wetlands. Each of the flanks of the four-lane flyover will be 7.5 meters wide.
An official said the estimated cost of the flyover is Rs 727 crore. According to the official, the finance department is likely to release the funds over three years. The deadline for construction is yet to be finalized, but it could range between 18 months and 36 months, said the official. The planning of the flyover has been going on for many years.
