The Outer Ring Road is a 6-lane ring road that encircles the city of Delhi. It has three lanes in each direction, with a total length of 47 km. Although it used to have traffic lights and at-grade intersections, mushrooming interchanges have reduced the number of lights to just two, and traffic now flows much more smoothly. Several stretches of the Outer Ring Road have been notified as National Highways.[1]
Delhi features two ring roads, a main one and an outer one. The two ring roads have a combined length of 87 km.
