Proposed Meerut Location & Regional Linkages Proposed Outer Ring Road Proposed Dedicated Rail Freight Corridor The proposed Peripheral under NCR Plan connects it to the proposed Delhi-Meerut. Proposed Eastern Peripheral Proposed Taj Proposed Ganga Proposed Dadri Hapur It will have substantial impact on the infrastructure development in Meerut city.

Traffic Issues Need to be Addressed Existence of Transport Nagar and Bus Terminals in core of the city. Missing links on Inner Ring Road. Absence of R.O.B s and Flyovers. Inadequate road widths. Inadequate Public Transport System. Lack of parking facilities. Encroachments on Right of Ways.
Existing Road Network Municipal Boundary Proposed Inner Ring Road National Highway State Highway and ODR NH 58 NH 119 Rail Track NH 58 All the National, State Highways and other District Roads carry heavy vehicular traffic inside the city area. Zero Mile Junction Immediate need assessed for construction of Proposed Inner Ring Road.
Bus Terminal 1-1 Delhi Adda Existence in Core of the City. Proposed to be shifted as per Master Plan.
Bus Terminal 2 - Garh Adda This existing Bus Terminus is also located in congested area of the city on Garhmuktheshar road. So it is proposed to be shifted as per Master Plan proposal.

Widening/Strengthening of Roads By-Pass (NH-58) Work in progress by NHAI Proposed Inner Ring Road Roads identified for improvement 1- Delhi Road (10.72 km) 2- Hapur Road (12.16 km) Baghpat Road Zero Mile Jn. Bijnor Road 3- Garh Road (9.60 km) 4- Bijnor Road (9.84 km) 5- Baghpat Road (8.32 km) Garh Road Total Length = 50.64 km. Total Estimated Cost = 125 Cr. Delhi Road Widening & Strengthening in progress by NHAI Hapur Road Proposed Outer Ring Road Widening & Strengthening proposed by MDA.
Missing Links Inner and Outer Ring Roads Project in process to be taken by NHAI Proposed Inner Ring Road Proposed 100m Outer Ring Road Missing Links of 45m Inner Ring Rd Strengthening of 45m Inner Ring Rd Zero Mile Jn. 6-laning in Progress of 76m NH-58 by NHAI Missing Links on Inner RR Proposed Outer Ring Road The length of the outer ring road is 68 km. and will have controlled access and grade separations on all intersections. There is immediate need of construction of missing links and widening of existing segments of 37 km long inner ring road to reduce the stress on city roads.
Flyovers and ROBs Existing ROBs (Two) Rail Track Proposed ROBs (Five) (90Cr.) Flyovers under const. by NHAI Begum Bridge (Zero Mile Jn) Proposed Flyovers (Ten) (180 Cr.) Proposed Inner Ring Rd Existing ROBs are at Partapur on Delhi Road and near Transport Nagar on Baghpat Road. Three Flyovers are under construction by NHAI at three strategic intersections on Delhi- Roorkee Bypass road. Other than Four flyovers on Inner R.R., Two flyovers have been proposed centrally inside the city because of heavy stress and availability of ROW at those sections.
