Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta has said Barapullah Elevated Road Phase-III is ready to serve Delhi residents after she inspected the entire corridor ahead of its scheduled inauguration on 29 September.
Union Home and Cooperation Minister Amit Shah is set to inaugurate the elevated road, according to the announcement. Gupta described the inspection as a pre-inauguration review of the completed corridor.
Why the corridor matters
Barapullah Phase-III is expected to strengthen road connectivity between Delhi and Noida. Recent coverage of the project has reported that it could reduce travel time between the 2 areas to 15 minutes, offering a faster route for commuters once the corridor opens.
The project comes amid a wider focus on improving Delhi's road network and easing congestion. Earlier coverage reported that the Delhi Cabinet had approved Barapullah Phase-III along with another elevated-corridor project in March 2026. Those approvals were linked to efforts to improve connectivity and reduce traffic pressure.
What happens next
The immediate next step is the inauguration scheduled for 29 September. Gupta's corridor inspection took place before that event, while the project's expected commuter benefit will depend on the route becoming available for public movement after the inauguration.
Conclusion
Barapullah Elevated Road Phase-III has reached the pre-inauguration stage, with Amit Shah scheduled to open the corridor on 29 September. The project is expected to improve Delhi-Noida connectivity and reduce travel time to 15 minutes.
