The arrangement has been made for the Public Health and Engineering Department (PHED to lay down Bisalpur pipelines from the Transport Nagar gurudwara to the Hotel Broadway stretch on Agra Road.
“As Wednesday was a state holiday, there was no major effect of the diversions. The problem would start from Thursday as offices, schools and businesses would remain open. The way the traffic has been diverted, additional manpower is required to manage it in the interior roads of Adarsh Nagar, Tilak Nagar, Raja Park and Jawahar Nagar. Even traffic in localities of the walled city would be affected,” said a police officer.
As per the updated traffic arrangements, all buses on the affected stretch of Agra Road would be rerouted via JDA Circle, Shanti Path, Jawahar Nagar bypass, and subsequently to Rotary Circle. On the way back, buses would take the same route.
Similarly, buses that ply along MI Road to reach Transport Nagar and Amber via the gurudwara will now follow a route through Sanganeri Gate, Badi Chaupar, Subash Chowk, and Ramgarh Mod.
A third alternative route has been designated for light vehicles commuting from Ghatgate to Transport Nagar. This route goes via Mukti Marg, near Sophia School, and through Adarsh Nagar to access Govind Marg.
