Getting stuck in a traffic jam because of an unexpected road closure or diversion may soon become less common in Delhi. The Delhi Traffic Police has begun working closely with navigation platforms to ensure that real-time traffic restrictions, road closures and diversions are reflected directly on apps used by lakhs of commuters every day.
On Monday, traffic restrictions around Maharani Bagh remained in force for nearly 12 hours as the Delhi Jal Board carried out repair work on Ring Road. On other days, commuters may encounter road closures due to civic projects, diversions for public events or restrictions imposed for VIP movements.
