[edit] Construction

The DND Flyway

The project, built by the Noida Toll Bridge Company Ltd. (NTBCL) was developed under a Build-Own-Operate-Transfer (BOOT) model. The Noida Toll Bridge Company promoted by the Infrastructure Leasing and Financial Services (IL&FS).

The project included the construction of a flyover at Ashram Chowk which after being constructed by the NTBCL would be handed over to the Public Works Department for maintenance[1].

The other major part of the project was the construction of a 552.5 meter bridge over the Yamuna river. This bridge, which was estimated to cost Rs. 408 Crore was expected to be completed by May 29, 2001[2]. The construction was however completed earlier than expected and the expressway was opened to public on February 7, 2001 [3].

[edit] Mayur Vihar Link

The NTBCL in July 2006, started the construction of an extension to link Mayur Vihar directly to the DND Flyway. The work is by now complete and the Mayur Vihar Link Road was opened to traffic in both directions with effect from January 19, 2008.[4] [5] afcon
