Kolkata's first underpass is 7 meters wide and approximately 320 meters long and it has 2 sections hence called multi tier. The upper tier of the underpass is for cars and 2 wheelers & the second tier is just 8m below the first level and is for pedestrians.
The main object behind the underpass is to reduce the traffic of new town, rajarhat & airport area. This will bring traffic from the Salt Lake and Karunamayee side straight towards the Nazrul tirtha and Unitech side and vice-versa.
This is the phase-I of the Integrated Project Newtown-Airport Underpass to make a swift movement of traffic in the Airport, Salt lake, Rajarhat and Newtown areas. Keeping Airport way in mind will be beneficial for people to divide the traffic.
