This article is about the Outer Ring Road of New Delhi. For the Inner Ring Road, see Ring Road, New Delhi.
Outer Ring Road, Delhi is a ring road that encircles the city of Delhi. It has three lanes in each direction, with a total length of 47km. 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.
