Jaipur’s ongoing city expansion just got a transformative push as JDA has approved ₹526 crore for multiple development works, with a special focus on constructing a highlevel bridge at OTS (Ornamental Tank Road). This decision directly addresses the severe congestion at the OTS and Bhawani Niketan junction, affecting daily movement for up to one lakh vehicles.

Project Highlights

• The highlevel bridge will now be 41 meters wide, replacing the current 18-meter stretch from Hasanpura Chauraha to Ram Mandir.

• This bridge is designed to clear the chronic bottleneck, easing the journey for over 100,000 commuters who use this busy city corridor daily.

• As per the approved plan, work will begin within 2 to 3 months, with completion targeted by 2026.

Key Construction Details

• Existing road width: 18 meters (with only 14 meters usable for vehicles)

• New planned road width: 41 meters

• This strategic expansion will not just facilitate smoother traffic but also substantially elevate real estate values in adjacent localities, boosting long-term investment prospects.

Development Coverage

• The highlevel bridge covers the stretch from Hasanpura Chauraha to Ram Mandir, crossing major junctions and the railway line.

• The planned flyover and road upgrades will directly link commercial and residential zones, enhancing connectivity throughout Jaipur’s growing urban sprawl.

Previous Challenges & Solutions

• The first DPR and project proposal was readied in 2023, but it was delayed due to land acquisition and transfer issues since 2015.

• Now, with JDA’s fresh commitment and funding, long-standing hurdles have been cleared for rapid development.

Benefits for Investors and Daily Commuters

• Immediate relief from daily traffic jams for Jaipur’s busiest routes means higher demand and appreciation for properties along this corridor.

• Better accessibility drives commercial activity, increases the convenience of daily travel, and raises the standard for future city infrastructure.

• Real estate prices are poised to rise in the connected localities, making it a strong focus for mid- and long-term property investments.
