The Delhi Traffic Police has issued a comprehensive traffic advisory ahead of a scheduled event at Rajghat on May 6. The event, which is expected to be attended by several dignitaries, is likely to significantly impact vehicle movement in and around central and east Delhi during the morning hours.
Key Diversion Points
The advisory indicates that diversions may be implemented as needed at crucial junctions, including Rajghat Chowk, ITO Chowk, Delhi Gate Chowk, Guru Nanak Chowk, Rajghat DTC Depot, and the IP Flyover. These measures aim to manage the anticipated increase in traffic volume and ensure the smooth conduct of the event.
Affected Routes
Authorities have also indicated that restrictions could extend to major connecting stretches. Specifically, diversions may be enforced on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg between ITO Chowk and Delhi Gate, the stretch from Shanti Van to IP flyover, and Ashaf Ali Road up to NS Marg. Additional diversions may be implemented along Shantivan Chowk to Nishad Raj Marg, Guru Nanak Chowk to Ranjeet Singh flyover, and from Rajghat DTC Depot towards the Ring Road bypass.
Timing and Duration
The traffic curbs are expected to remain in place between 9 am and 11 am, though the duration may be adjusted based on real-time traffic conditions. Commuters are advised to factor in these restrictions when planning their journeys.
Advice for Commuters
Those heading to the airport or railway stations are particularly urged to plan their routes accordingly and allow extra travel time. Officials have also appealed to motorists to park only in designated areas and strictly avoid roadside parking to facilitate smooth traffic flow.
