After Seven Years, Centre Reforms High-Powered Panel to Ease Delhi Traffic

The Centre has revived and reconstituted a high-powered committee aimed at tackling long-standing traffic congestion in Delhi. The move comes seven years after the panel was last active, reflecting renewed urgency to streamline road movement and improve urban mobility in the national capital.

Officials say the committee will coordinate between civic agencies, traffic authorities, and urban development bodies to identify bottlenecks, improve infrastructure planning, and fast-track pending transport projects. The initiative is expected to focus on decongesting major corridors, strengthening public transport integration, and implementing data-driven traffic management systems.

Work by the reconstituted panel is scheduled to begin next week, with authorities expressing hope that a coordinated approach will bring measurable relief to commuters facing daily gridlock in one of India’s busiest cities.
