The route from the Shastri Nagar light point towards Bapu Dham Colony (BDC) and from Kishangarh village towards Sukhna Lake were closed due to damaged causeways on the Sukhna choe.
Rohit Kumar, a commuter, said it took him around 45 minutes to cover about 4 km on the stretch.
“There was so much rush on this particular stretch that vehicles were moving at a snail’s pace,” he added.
