  "account": "Delhi will soon be home to its third skywalk, constructed at Madhuban Chowk, a busy intersection plagued by frequent accidents and traffic congestion. Chief Minister Rekha Gupta announced that the pedestrian bridge, nearly 60% complete, will be finalized by November, enhancing safety for commuters and reducing accidents. The first skywalk, built at ITO, connects Tilak Marg, Pragati Maidan, and the Supreme Court Metro Station. The second is situated in South Campus. Madhuban Chowk is one of the Capital's busiest intersections, often congested with heavy traffic and a hotspot for pedestrian accidents, with around 10-11 fatalities annually reported between 2020 and 2023. The skywalk will link Pitampura Metro Station, Madhuban Chowk Metro Station, and Rohini District Court, providing a safe passage for Metro users, court personnel, and lawyers visiting Rohini Court. The project, nearly Rs 9.62 crore, will also promote sustainable, public transport-based mobility and improve overall traffic flow in the area.",
