Chandigarh: Haryana’s transport department Thursday announced its plan to convert the Panipat bus stand into five-storeyed complex to raise its height to the level of a flyover, which state roadways buses could also use.
Transport Minister O.P. Jain said that raising the height of bus stand building would ease the traffic congestion below the flyover and ensure smooth flow of traffic in Panipat city. Parking facilities would be provided at the ground level of the bus stand, he added.
The 10-km long flyover enables fast-moving traffic on National Highway No.1 (NH-1) to cross Panipat city smoothly on an elevated road.
The toll flyover, which has an elevated portion of 3.4 km, was inaugurated July last year.
