Closure of key stretches in Delhi’s southern parts for repair and construction works led to traffic snarls for the fifth consecutive day of the week on Thursday as commuters faced a harrowing time to reach their destination. Besides, there are several stretches where commuters face traffic snarls every day. The stretch between Anand Vihar to Shahdara border and Marginal Pusta Bund road connecting Shastri Park to Khajuri Chowk are nightmares for commuters due to ongoing construction works.
Noida resident Sunita Singh relies on the Chirag Delhi flyover to travel to her workplace near IIT-Delhi. These days, her daily commute is dotted by countless stops and inordinate delays as closure of one of the flyover’s carriageways for repairs has choked traffic along the route.
