Are you planning to go to Patna Zoo or Mall? Wait, do check out this new route map before leaving home today.

News India Live, Digital Desk: Today is January 1, 2026. New year, new enthusiasm and every Patnaite has only one thought in his mind: “Come on brother, let’s visit the zoo today or sunbathe at Gandhi Maidan.” But friends, you and we know that the ‘terrible’ jam that occurs on the roads of Patna on the first day of the year turns all the enthusiasm into cold water.

To save from the hassle of this traffic jam, Patna Police has geared up and has come up with a new Traffic Advisory (Patna Traffic Advisory 2026) Is released. If you are going out on the streets today, then know a few things otherwise the fun of the party will turn into the tension of traffic jams.

Auto ‘guard’ ends on these routes

Patna Police has clearly said that to control the crowd today Nehru Path/Bailey Road And Gandhi Maidan Some restrictions have been imposed on the plying of autos and e-rickshaws around. This simply means that now auto drivers will not be able to stand arbitrarily on the main roads and fill up their rides. Police want the main roads to remain empty so that emergency vehicles and pedestrians can move easily.

If you feel like going to the zoo, listen to this

Patna’s Sanjay Gandhi Biological Park (Patna Zoo) is today the first choice of millions of people. In such a situation, jam on Bailey Road is almost certain. This time the administration has made special arrangements for one-way and parking on Bailey Road. Parking the car on the main road of Bailey Road means the car will be towed. Therefore, use the designated parking zone only.

Changed face of Gandhi Maidan

If you are going to Gandhi Maidan from Saguna Mod or Raja Bazaar, then use only the alternative lanes given by the police. There will be tight security near JP Golambar and Maurya Hotel today. The main objective of the police is to ensure that a situation of ‘deadlock’ does not arise at the intersections of Gandhi Maidan and Boring Road, i.e. the wheel cannot move instead of the vehicle.

a little advice from me

It’s New Year, have fun but follow the traffic rules. Today the police are also standing on the streets in the sun just for your convenience. If possible, give priority to public transport or walking distance today. A little support can make your and other people’s journey easier.

Hopefully, you will understand this police guideline and start the year 2026 by staying safe. Avoid traffic jams, smile with your loved ones!
