Residents seek underpasses on NH 7 to address safety concerns

1 2 3 Panchkula: Residents and welfare associations have raised an urgent demand for the construction of two underpasses at accident-prone locations on the NH-07 (Panchkula–Yamunanagar highway), citing increasing number of accidents in recent months. Residents said the first proposed underpass is at the junction where Bander Ghati Road meets the highway, near the Jhuriwala dumping ground. This T-point has become a notorious black spot from a road safety perspective. Several casualties were reported here in the past few months due to the absence of safe crossing infrastructure and poor visibility at the junction. Locals and commuters have continuously flagged the issue, demanding immediate intervention by authorities. The second critical location is at the junction of the dividing road of sectors 27 and 28, which also intersects with the highway. Residents of both sectors, especially Sector 28, face a risk while accessing Ramgarh and adjoining areas. Many are forced to use the wrong side of the service lane due to lack of a safe and structured passage. A formal request has already been submitted by the Sector 28 RWA to the Panchkula Metropolitan Development Authority, which is expected to take up the issue with NHAI. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo "We have been facing some challenges due to the lack of a road cut under the bridge at the road dividing sectors 27/28. The current layout of the highway without a road cut at this point forces us to take a longer route to reach our destinations. This not only increases our travel time but also contributes to unnecessary fuel consumption and traffic congestion. A road cut at the mentioned location would greatly alleviate these issues and improve the overall connectivity of our sector. We request you to consider our proposal and look into the feasibility of creating a road cut under the bridge at the road dividing sectors 27 and 28 in Panchkula," wrote Sector 27 and 28 RWAs presidents in their plea to PMDA.
