The statement said that the length of the road involved in the project is about 28 kilometers, which will facilitate traffic by connecting different parts of the capital. According to the statement, the construction of the Green Corridor will bring a major change in the traffic system in the capital and the roads which earlier used to take 45 minutes to an hour for people to reach their destination, will now be able to cover the same distance in just 10 to 15 minutes. This will save time and also reduce the problem of traffic jam in the city.
