Heat Impact: 31 Traffic Signals On Blinker Mode For 2 Hrs Nagpur city authorities have implemented a temporary measure to mitigate the effects of extreme summer heat on motorists. Starting from Sunday, April 19, 31 key traffic signals across the city will operate in blinker mode between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. This decision was announced by DCP (Traffic) Lohit Matani through a press release, which emphasized the initiative’s goal of reducing prolonged waiting times at intersections during peak afternoon hours. The move is part of a broader effort to enhance road safety and manage traffic flow under challenging weather conditions. The affected junctions include prominent locations such as Ladies Club Square, GPO Square, Shri Mohini Complex Square, VCA Square, Kannamwar Square, Raja Rani Square, Dharampeth Y-point, Vivekanand Nagar Square, Bhole Petrol Pump Square, Agyaram Devi Square, Telephone Exchange Square, Kamal Square, TB Ward Square, Neri T-point, Bajaj Nagar Square, Jaitala Bazar Square, Khamla Square, Bhende Layout Square, and Deonagar Square. Motorists have been instructed to adhere strictly to the "Stop, Look and Go" rule while navigating these areas during the designated time window. The initiative reflects the city’s response to rising temperatures, which have led to increased discomfort for drivers and pedestrians. By alternating signal operations, authorities aim to minimize the risk of heat-related incidents while maintaining traffic efficiency. The measure will remain in effect until further notice, pending assessments of its impact on congestion and public safety. This action underscores the growing emphasis on adaptive urban planning to address climate challenges.#nagpur_city #gpo_square #dcp_traffic_lohit_matani #ladies_club_square #shri_mohini_complex_square
