Traffic police officials have clarified that these restrictions and diversions will remain dynamic as per the ground conditions. If necessary, vehicles will be sent to alternative routes. Strict instructions have been given not to do any kind of unauthorized parking on the roadside, as it creates narrowness on the main roads and causes huge traffic jams. If you’re headed to New Delhi Railway Station, Old Delhi Railway Station, Interstate Bus Stand (ISBT) or Indira Gandhi International Airport, allow at least 45 minutes to 1 hour extra from the normal travel time and prefer to use the Metro network or the Outer Ring Road rather than the inner city routes of Central Delhi. Although there are no specific restrictions for air and rail travelers, it would be wise to avoid road congestion.

Delhi Traffic Police has also issued control room helpline numbers for the convenience and immediate assistance of passengers. Citizens can contact helpline number 1095 or 011-25844444 for any assistance or route information. Along with this, the official WhatsApp number of traffic police 8750871493 is also active, on which live information about jams and routes can be taken. The minute-by-minute situation is being shared on the official X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook handles of Delhi Police. The administration has appealed to all the drivers to follow the instructions of the traffic personnel deployed on the spot and maintain cooperation.
