Vehicles headed for the Sealdah flyover from north will be diverted from Shyambazar, Maniktala and Rajabazar, while those moving towards the flyover from south will be re-routed from the Exide and Moulali intersections for three from the morning of October 2.
The traffic diversion scheme will remain in force from 6am on October 2 to 6am on October 5 as the flyover will remain shut during the period to facilitate the construction of a tunnel for the East-West Metro project.
The tunnel-boring work for the Metro corridor — which, once fully functional, will link Sector V in Salt Lake with Howrah Maidan — resumed in June after remaining suspended for over three months because of Covid-19.
