GURUGRAM: NHAI is aiming to make the Jaipur to Delhi carriageway of the Bilaspur Chowk flyover usable by the end of November, according to an update announced on Monday, November 9, 2026. The proposed partial opening concerns the busy NH-48 junction used by highway commuters and residents travelling towards Pataudi. It remains a construction target, with no confirmed opening hour in IST.

About 75% of the work is reported complete. Officials are targeting November 30 for the dense bituminous macadam layer, known as DBM, needed before traffic can be allowed onto the first carriageway. Work on the approaches and crash barriers is continuing. The update therefore gives commuters a milestone to watch, rather than permission to start using the structure.

One carriageway is the immediate target

The planned flyover is approximately 1.8 km long and has six lanes, with a three lane service road on either side. The first opening being discussed is in the Jaipur to Delhi direction. That distinction matters for people planning their return journey: the update does not announce the simultaneous opening of both directions or completion of every part of the junction.

The reported Rs 84 crore cost relates to a combined project that includes another flyover in Manesar. It should not be read as the cost of Bilaspur alone. Similarly, the estimate that roughly three quarters of work is complete describes construction progress, not the share of lanes already available to the public.

  • Location: Bilaspur Chowk on the Delhi to Jaipur highway.
  • First proposed opening: the Jaipur to Delhi carriageway.
  • Surfacing milestone: November 30, 2026.
  • Reported progress: approximately 75%.
  • Revised deadline for the full project: May 2027.

An NHAI official said the main structure was ready, while granular work on the approaches and casting of crash barriers remained under way. These are separate from the visible span of the flyover. A completed elevated structure can still require work at its entry and exit before it can carry public traffic.

Why Pataudi bound travellers are watching

The construction has disrupted access around Bilaspur Chowk. Bhora Kalan sarpanch Manbir Singh described detours for residents travelling between Gurugram and Pataudi. With the approach road closed, travellers from Gurugram have been going through Sidhrawali or Rathiwas, while those arriving from the Jaipur side have had to go around through Pachgaon, according to the reported account.

Those descriptions explain the local demand for an early opening. They are accounts of the disruption around the work site, rather than a newly issued police diversion notice. The announcement does not provide a fresh route map or a date for removing every existing diversion. Travellers should continue to follow the signs and directions in place at the junction.

Singh also described earlier village meetings and protests seeking movement on the project. The immediate question for nearby villages is whether the first carriageway can restore a more direct passage at the junction while construction continues elsewhere. The available update does not quantify the minutes a commuter would save or predict how much congestion would fall.

A partial opening before the full deadline

The project was approved in 2015, with its foundation stone laid in March 2022 and an earlier completion target of October 2024. Construction began in May 2023 but stopped after underground utility lines were encountered along the alignment. The reported project history also records revised estimates and financial difficulties affecting the original contractor.

NHAI removed the stalled work from the earlier contract in October 2024 and issued a fresh tender that December. A new agency was appointed in May 2025. The revised overall completion deadline is May 2027, meaning the current proposal would bring one carriageway into use before the entire scheme is finished.

The project was also transferred from NHAI's Rewari project implementation unit to its Jaipur unit as part of a broader NH-8 upgrade. That transfer forms part of the reported project history.

For official highway information, readers can check the National Highways Authority of India. A subsequent opening announcement will be needed to establish the actual date, time and permitted movements at Bilaspur Chowk. Until then, the November 30 milestone should guide expectations about construction progress.

Elsewhere in the city, related reporting covers the road improvement progress review, the Subhash Chowk to Hero Honda Chowk service road tender and the continued one way arrangement near Vyapar Kendra and Galleria. Those are separate schemes and do not set the opening date for Bilaspur.
