New Delhi, Jan 27 (PTI) Traffic movement in and around Rajghat and adjoining areas of the national capital will remain regulated and diverted for a brief period on Tuesday morning in view of an official
function at Mahatma Gandhi Smriti Sthal.
The event, scheduled to be attended by several dignitaries, will be held between 9.15 am and 12.30 pm, during which special traffic arrangements will be in place to ensure its smooth conduct, according to a traffic advisory.
Diversions will be imposed “as and when required” at key junctions, including at ITO Chowk, Delhi Gate, Guru Nanak Chowk, Shantivan Chowk, Rajghat DTC Depot and IP Flyover, the advisory stated.
Several major road stretches are likely to be impacted due to the movement of VIP convoys and security arrangements. These include Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg-ITO Chowk-Delhi Gate stretch, the Shantivan Chowk-IP Flyover stretch, and Asaf Ali Road between Delhi Gate and Netaji Subhash (NS) Marg.
Traffic restrictions may also affect the route from Shantivan Chowk to Nishad Raj Marg, Guru Nanak Chowk to Ranjit Singh Flyover, and the road connecting Rajghat DTC Depot to the Ring Road Bypass.
Authorities said traffic personnel will be deployed at major intersections to regulate vehicular movement and assist road users.
Commuters have been advised to plan their journeys in advance and avoid the affected stretches, especially during the peak restriction hours, to prevent inconvenience. Motorists have been urged to follow the directions of traffic police on duty and to use alternative routes wherever possible. PTI SSJ RUK RUK
