VIP Road

VIP Road (officially Kazi Nazrul Islam Sarani) is a major thoroughfare connecting the city of Kolkata with the Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose International Airport. Located in the North-Eastern outskirts of the city, it was built in 1962 to provide speedy connection with the city and its sole airport. VIP Road falls under the administration of Bidhannagar Municipal Corporation and South Dumdum Municipality. To reduce traffic jams especially in the crossings of Kestopur & Baguiati, a flyover has been constructed over the stretch between Dum Dum Park and Teghoria, which opened in March 2015. Another flyover connecting VIP Road with EM Bypass has been opened in 2011, reducing traffic bottlenecks at Ultadanga crossing.

A number of budget hotels are located along the northern stretch of VIP Road

VIP Road was renamed after the great revolutionary poet Kazi Nazrul Islam.

Feluda or Pradosh Chandra Mitter and his friend Jatayu or Lal Mohon Ganguly and Felu's cousin Tapesh Ranjan Mitter are seen in a taxi driving down V.I.P Road towards Dum Dum Airport in a taxi in the movie Bombaiyer Bombete.

Another bypass route (Major Arterial Road) to the airport via Rajarhat has been created, which connects Haldirams on VIP Road to Chingrighata on EM Bypass, passing through Rajarhat.
