NOIDA: The second U-turn on the Noida-Delhi link road was inaugurated on Sunday evening, but most commuters preferred using the two cuts on the road.
The U-turn was inaugurated by
Union minister Mahesh Sharma in the presence of some BJP members and a few Noida Authority officials. The inaugural took place around 5.30pm and the minister's car was the first to use it. However, not many people were seen using the U-turn on the first day as the two cuts in front of
Sector 15 A are yet to be sealed. An official said the cuts would be closed soon.
TOI had reported earlier that the U-turn could pose multiple challenges to traffic both during peak hours and on Sundays as vehicles willing to use it have to slow down to turn towards the left.
On Sunday, some vehicles could be seen speeding away nonchalantly without caring about the U-turn. "This is an example of wrong engineering. Everybody knows about it," a contractor present near the U-turn said.
