Godrej Industries Group (GIG), in partnership with the Public Works Department (PWD), Delhi Government, has undertaken the restoration and beautification of the Netaji Subhash Place (NSP) Flyover stretch, from Ring Road to the NSP Metro Station. The initiative aims to improve the visual quality and long-term usability of a key public infrastructure corridor in Northwest Delhi.
Located at the junction of Ring Road and arterial routes leading towards Rohini and Pitampura, the NSP Flyover serves as an important gateway to Northwest Delhi. Over time, parts of the area beneath the flyover and adjoining medians had become underutilised, visually unappealing, and vulnerable to dumping and encroachment. The restoration initiative seeks to address these challenges through a planned, sustainable, and citizen-centric approach, aligned with the Delhi Government’s broader efforts to enhance public infrastructure.
Speaking on the initiative, Smt. Rekha Gupta, Chief Minister of Delhi, said “Revitalising under‑flyover spaces is an important step towards improving Delhi’s urban landscape and everyday experience for citizens. Meaningful public‑private partnerships enable us to restore neglected infrastructure into clean, safe, and well‑organised public spaces in a sustainable manner. Aligned with our vision of building a clean and beautiful Delhi, I appreciate the commitment shown by corporate partners like Godrej Industries Group in supporting the restoration and long‑term upkeep of the Netaji Subhash Place Flyover.”
The design approach prioritises low-height, shade-tolerant landscaping to maintain clear sightlines, improved lighting for pedestrian and traffic safety, and water-efficient irrigation systems to support long-term maintenance. These interventions are designed to encourage proper utilization of public spaces and improving the everyday experience for commuters and residents. All interventions have been planned within the regulatory framework of the Delhi Government and in close coordination with relevant civic and enforcement agencies.
Rakesh Swami, Group President and Head – Corporate Affairs, Godrej Industries Group, said, “At Godrej Industries Group, contributing to nation‑building goes beyond our businesses and reflects our long‑standing commitment to responsible action, sustainability, and the strengthening of public ecosystems. Shared public infrastructure plays a vital role in creating safer and more liveable cities.
Our partnership with the PWD, Delhi Government, underscores our belief that meaningful urban transformation is best achieved through responsible collaboration between government and industry. Working closely with the Chief Minister’s Office, PWD Minister Shri Parvesh Sahab Verma and his team, our focus has been on ensuring that the restoration of the NSP Flyover is thoughtfully planned, responsibly implemented, and maintained with a long‑term public perspective, contributing to improved safety, usability, and an enhanced everyday experience for citizens, while always keeping public interest at the centre.”
The NSP Flyover restoration adds to Godrej Industries Group’s long-standing engagement in supporting public spaces and urban infrastructure in partnership with civic authorities. Through sustained and responsible collaborations, including multi-year maintenance commitments, the Group continues to contribute to safer, more maintainable, and liveable urban environments across India.
