In 2007, the Capital Development Authority proposed to build three new interchanges on the highway at Koral Chowk, Lehtrar Road and Dhok Kala Khan Road to make it signal free.[2] However, expansion work was delayed until 2014.[3] The expansion later included a dedicated bike lane on the highway as well.[4]
