Traffic slowdown at Delhi-Gurugram border before normalcy restored

Gurugram, February 21

Commuters witnessed a massive traffic jam on the Delhi-Gurugram Expressway at the Delhi-Gurugram border this morning due to barricading by the Delhi Police.

In view of the farmers’ protest in Manesar on Tuesday and their proposed march to the Capital, the Delhi Police intensified vigil at the border. Police personnel checked the IDs of drivers at the Delhi-Gurugram border. Besides the checking, service lanes were closed, leading to traffic congestion.

The Gurugram traffic police also warned commuters of congestion at the Delhi-Gurugram border. In a post on social media platform ‘X’, the police said, “Traffic congestion has been reported at Delhi-Gurugram border on NH 48 due to barricading by Delhi Police. @TrafficGGM is on the spot to facilitate the traffic. Inconvenience cause is highly regretted. Commuters are requested to take extra time to reach airport.”

After some time, barricades were removed by the Gurugram Police in coordination with the Delhi Police. Thereafter, vehicles started moving at a normal pace.
