Delhi Imposes Traffic Restrictions Near Qutub Minar and Mehrauli Park for Sunday Delhi Traffic Police have announced temporary restrictions on vehicle movement near the Qutub Minar and Mehrauli Park area for Sunday, citing expected high traffic volumes and commuter activity. The measures, effective from 4 p.m. on Saturday to 9 p.m. on Sunday, aim to manage congestion and ensure smooth traffic flow in the historic zone. The restrictions apply to specific roads and prohibit heavy or commercial vehicles from accessing certain routes, while allowing regular traffic on designated pathways. The advisory specifies that heavy and commercial vehicles will not be permitted to approach Qutub Minar from Anuvrat Marg via the Phool Mandi approach road or from Crescent Marg through Masjid Haji Ali Jan. Similarly, movement of such vehicles will be restricted along Kalka Dass Marg toward the monument. Parking of heavy and commercial vehicles on connecting roads, including Anuvrat Marg, Crescent Marg, and Kalka Dass Marg, is also prohibited. Despite these restrictions, several major roads remain open for regular traffic. Aurobindo Marg, Anuvrat Marg, Crescent Road, and Kalka Dass Marg will stay accessible, though access to Qutub Minar will be limited to Kalka Dass Marg. Parking is allowed only at designated lots on Kalka Dass Marg in Mehrauli. Emergency vehicles, including ambulances, fire brigades, and police, are exempt from the restrictions and can move freely on all restricted routes. Commuters are urged to avoid the affected areas and use public transport, such as the Metro, to reduce congestion. The advisory emphasizes planning journeys in advance, particularly for those traveling to key locations like IGI Airport, New Delhi Railway Station, and ISBT.#delhi #delhi_traffic_police #qutub_minar #mehrauli_park #delhi_metro_rail_corporation
