The 4.04-kilometer-long six-lane bidirectional flyover connects Nehru Zoo Park and Aramghar, two key areas in the city, and is expected to ease traffic congestion in the region. The flyover has been named in honor of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh, who passed away on December 26, 2024, at the age of 92.
