A newly constructed bypass in Haryana, completed at a cost of ₹800 crore, is now operational as of December 2024. This bypass, which took six years to build, will significantly benefit heavy vehicles traveling from Haryana to Rajasthan and Delhi. The development promises smoother traffic flow and reduced congestion for Rewari city and neighboring regions.
Major Land Acquisition for Construction
To facilitate the construction of this bypass, the government acquired land from farmers in 18 villages within the Rewari district. The project, which commenced in 2018, faced delays but has finally been opened for public use in December 2024. This marks a significant milestone in improving regional connectivity.
Connecting Three National Highways
The new bypass directly connects Rewari city to three major national highways. This connectivity offers relief to daily commuters and heavy vehicles alike, particularly for routes heading to Mahendragarh and Narnaul.Previously, vehicles had to pass through Rewari city, causing traffic jams and delays. With the new bypass, heavy vehicles can bypass the city entirely, saving up to 8 kilometers of travel distance.
Key Benefits of the New Bypass
- Traffic Reduction in Rewari: The bypass alleviates the burden of heavy traffic in Rewari, particularly on Circular Road, which often witnessed significant congestion.
- Time and Fuel Savings: The shortened travel distance ensures reduced journey times and lower fuel consumption, benefiting both the environment and vehicle operators.
- Improved Connectivity: Direct links to Delhi, Rajasthan, and Haryana regions enhance trade and commute efficiency.
Impact on Local Transportation
With the bypass now functional, vehicles heading from Delhi to Narnaul or Mahendragarh will find a smoother, quicker route. This not only improves intercity transport but also eases local travel for residents of Rewari. Furthermore, the reduced traffic pressure on city roads contributes to safer and more organized urban mobility.The bypass is expected to support economic activities by improving the movement of goods and services between states, making Haryana a strategic hub for transportation.
Positive Reception from Local Residents
Residents of Rewari have welcomed the development with enthusiasm. Many express relief at the bypass’s ability to decongest the city while also reducing pollution levels caused by constant vehicular traffic. Farmers whose land was acquired for the project have also noted the importance of the bypass in boosting regional infrastructure.
Looking Forward
The Haryana government has committed to further enhancing road connectivity across the state. This bypass serves as an example of the state’s focus on developing infrastructure that balances local needs with broader economic growth. The successful completion of the project, despite its challenges, underscores the importance of long-term urban planning.
