Roads have been repaired with concrete around the station area under the upcoming Laxmi Nagar, Preet Vihar and Nirman Vihar Metro stations. Potholes between Karkari More and Preet Vihar have also been filled up by the DMRC.

Around 800 sq m of roads have already been repaired on the Inderlok - Mundka corridor and by the end of July, a total of 1.8 km of roads will have been repaired for potholes on this corridor at a total cost of Rs 20 lakh.
