New Delhi: The DND Flyway, which connects Delhi to Noida, will be toll-free from now.
The Allahabad High Court's decision to declare the eight-lane, 9 km long road toll-free comes two months after massive protests over the flyway.

Alleging corruption in the DND project, protesters blocked toll collection for two days, affecting traffic severely. An average of 1.5 lakh vehicles takes the route daily.
