शहर में दहलीगेट चौराहे पर अंडरपास बनाने की कवायद जल्द ही शुरू की जा सकती है। इसके तहत दहलीगेट से बापू बजा़र को लिंक करने के लिए बांस वाली गली से अंडरपास बनाये जाने की तैयारी जल्द ही शुरू की जाएगी। नगर विकास प्रन्यास, उदयपुर शहर परिवहन निगम, यातायात पुलिस और उदयपुर नगर निगम की हुई बैठक में ये सुझाव सामने आया।
इस संयुक्त बैठक में शहर के सभी प्रमुख चौराहो से ट्रैफिक के दबाव को करने के लिए सुझाव लिए गए। चर्चा के दौरान यह बात सामने आयी की शहर में यातायात का सबसे अधिक दबाव देहलीगेट पर होता है। यहाँ पर टाउनहॉल, नेहरू बाज़ार, अश्विनी बाज़ार, बापू बाज़ार, आदि हर तरफ से आने वाले वाहनों का जाम लग जाता है। इसलिए इस चौराहे पर अंडरपास बनाने का कार्य सबसे पहले किया जायेगा।
सुझाव के अनुसार, बांस वाली गली में अंडरपास बनाया जायेगा जो टाउनहॉल से होकर बापू बज़ार तक पहुंचेगा। इससे शास्त्री सर्किल और सूरजपोल से बापू बाज़ार जाने वाले वाहनों को देहलीगेट चौराहे पर नहीं रुकना पड़ेगा। इससे देहलीगेट चौराहे पर वाहनों का दबाव काफी हद तक काम हो जायेगा।
गैरतलब है की राज्य सरकार ने प्रदेश बजट के दौरान उदयपुर शहर की ट्रैफिक समस्या समाधान की लिए, 50 करोडे रुपये के बजट की घोषणा की थी। उसी के तहत युइटी ने डिटेल्ड प्रोजेक्ट प्लानिंग करने की प्रक्रिया शुरू कर दी है। बताया जाता है की इसमें जनता के सुझाव भी लिए जायेंगे।
