Traffic diversion in Sirmaur for Jamta-Birla road upgradation

Sirmaur District Magistrate LR Verma has issued a traffic diversion order for the Jamta-Birla road due to ongoing upgradation work. The decision, based on recommendations from the Public Works Department, aims to ensure smooth construction progress while minimising public inconvenience.

From March 10 to March 31, except for emergency vehicles, all traffic will be redirected through alternative routes. Commuters will need to use the Panjahal-Malgaon, Jaintal Ghat-Dadahu and Jaintal Ghat-Nahan via Dhagheda-Ramadhon (left side) roads during this period.

Considering the ongoing Class 10 and 12 board exams, roadwork will be carried out in two shifts: from 9:30 AM to 12:00 PM and from 1:30 PM to 4:30 PM. This is to reduce disruptions for students travelling to exam centres. The district administration urges residents and commuters to follow the diversion plan to ensure smooth traffic flow. —
