Delhi’s Public Works Department (PWD) plans a Y-shaped flyover at the Terminal-1 intersection, where Dwarka Road and Ullan Batar Road meet near NSG headquarters. One arm would connect NSG headquarters to Mehram Nagar East; the other would lead towards Dwarka Road, bypassing traffic signals and separating local traffic from surface-level movement. The stretch carries 3,500–5,200 passenger car units (PCU) per hour on Ullan Batar Road, 300–4,500 PCU on Dwarka Road from the east junction, 2,500–3,500 PCU on the NH48 Gurugram side, and 1,000 PCU of local traffic. More than 150,000–200,000 vehicles cross it in 24 hours.

PWD has invited bids for feasibility studies for an approximately 8-km elevated road linking Rani Jhansi Road to Punjabi Bagh West Metro Station via Anand Parbat and Zakhira, and a 0.5-km underpass near Crown Plaza red light in Mayur Vihar. In April, minister Parvesh Verma said 18 flyover and corridor projects were at planning or feasibility stages. Proposals include congestion measures along 55 km of Mahatma Gandhi Marg on the Outer Ring Road; a 20-km corridor along the Western Yamuna Canal (Munak Canal); extending UER-II towards Narela Metro station; a 4-km intervention at Shadipur Depot and another at ITO; a 6-km corridor from Nanaksar Gurudwara T-point to the Delhi–Uttar Pradesh border in Tronica City; and a 2.20-km corridor from Zakhira crossing to Karampura flyover.

The Delhi government plans to introduce new rules for paying guest (PG) accommodations and coaching institutes within six weeks, covering safety, facilities, rent and agreements. The announcement followed a building collapse in Satya Niketan that killed seven people. Education Minister Ashish Sood said the government had already been working on student accommodation regulation but the incident accelerated the process.

The new policy will:

• Create a common online portal with details about PG accommodations, availability, facilities and safety standards
• Address concerns about rent, promised facilities, agreements and safety
• Consult PG operators, parents, agencies, student organisations and stakeholders from water and electricity departments
• Include safety and security standards for PG accommodations
• Improve transparency around operators, facilities and agreements

More than two lakh students from outside Delhi require hostel accommodation, creating a significant gap between demand and available facilities. The government is increasing hostel capacity by raising the permissible floor area ratio (FAR) for hostels under the Master Plan and seeking additional FAR support from the Centre. The government plans to facilitate redevelopment of Delhi University hostels through increased FAR and faster building-plan approvals. The government is also examining whether vacant buildings in Narela could be converted into student accommodation, with bus services connecting such facilities to educational institutions. Private operators will continue to play a role alongside government and institutional hostels.

Delhi Master Plan 2047 targets more than 40 lakh homes over 20 years using land pooling, Transit-Oriented Development (TOD), redevelopment of older areas, and vertical growth.

Experts expect the supply increase to ease housing constraints and stabilise prices but not cause sharp price falls. Land costs, construction expenses, infrastructure and approval speed remain critical affordability factors.

Pradeep Aggarwal (Signature Global Chairman) calls the plan a "game changer" and expects price stabilisation rather than reduction. He cited Gurugram where 1-2 BHK units cost Rs 1 crore to Rs 1.5 crore, noting metropolitan markets have price floors.

Ankur Jalan (Golden Growth Fund CEO) expects inventory increase and price stabilisation but cautions that land remains a major cost component and Delhi's high land prices are unlikely to fall significantly.

Rahul Purohit (Square Yards) highlighted that TOD could benefit Rohini, while land pooling could significantly impact northeast and southeast Delhi areas including Narela. The plan increases redevelopment plot size from 400 to 3,000 square metres with Floor Area Ratio of 1.5, enabling private developer participation in DDA housing society redevelopment.

Experts identified land-pooling areas as potentially seeing relatively lower prices due to comparatively lower land costs in those zones.
