The bypass will begin from the junction of NH-7 (Zirakpur–Patiala) and end at the junction of NH-5 (Zirakpur–Parwanoo). Designed in alignment with the Punjab Government’s Master Plan, the route bypasses the congested urban stretches of Zirakpur in Punjab and Panchkula in Haryana, offering significant relief to both local and through traffic.
Part of the PM GatiShakti National Master Plan, the project is aimed at reducing travel time and improving road safety in the heavily congested trijunction of Zirakpur, Panchkula, and Mohali. The bypass will particularly benefit commuters heading to and from Patiala, Delhi, Mohali Aerocity, and Himachal Pradesh, ensuring smoother flow by decongesting key segments of NH-7, NH-5, and NH-152.
The Zirakpur Bypass is a critical segment of the proposed ring road network being planned around the Chandigarh–Panchkula–Mohali urban agglomeration, which the government is actively pursuing to address the region’s growing traffic pressure.
This strategic infrastructure investment not only enhances connectivity but also supports integrated transport development, aligning with national priorities under GatiShakti to drive economic growth through modern, efficient logistics corridors.
