GURGAON: Following the Punjab and Haryana high court order to find solutions to decongest the Delhi-Gurgaon expressway's 32-lane toll plaza, Delhi-Gurgaon Super Connectivity Ltd (DGSCL) and the Gurgaon traffic police along with Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) conducted a meeting on Tuesday.
Sources said all the stakeholders would meet again on Wednesday with the National Highway Authority of India (NHAI) to zero in on the methods to be adopted at the 32-lane toll plaza.
Tuesday's meeting focused on the expansion plan of the 32-lane toll plaza by implementing a staggered lane system, increasing the number of toll gates, besides discussing other issues including preventing cash lane users from entering into the tag users' lane.
However, no final decision was taken on Tuesday and stakeholders would further discuss the matter with NHAI. The clarity on the decongestion will come on Wednesday, said a DGSCL spokesperson.
Another option of distributing free electronic tags and touch-and-go cards would be put on the table.
The high court, on September 4, barred DGSCL from collecting toll tax from commuters from September 4 midnight to September 20, the next date of hearing in the case.
The HC had directed the NHAI to convene the meeting with the concessionaire and the state administration to devise ways and means to ensure smooth traffic movement. The stakeholders will have to produce a status report at the next hearing.
