Authorities have increased security and traffic management efforts across Gurugram and key routes in western Uttar Pradesh as the number of Kanwariyas returning from Haridwar, Gomukh, and Brajghat continues to rise during the Sawan period.
To manage the increasing flow of pilgrims, authorities have implemented special traffic diversions and restrictions aimed at ensuring smooth movement and reducing congestion on major roads.
Traffic Advisory For Heavy Vehicles
Gurugram Police has issued a special traffic advisory for heavy vehicles from August 9 to August 11. These measures are intended to ease traffic pressure and maintain safe passage for Kanwar pilgrims travelling through the city.
Heavy vehicles moving from Delhi towards Rajasthan, Jhajjar, Rewari, Pataudi, Nuh, and Faridabad via Gurugram have been advised to avoid key routes during this period.
Alternative Routes Suggested
Drivers of heavy vehicles have been directed to use alternative routes such as:
Dwarka Expressway
Kundli-Manesar-Palwal Expressway
These routes are expected to help divert traffic away from congested areas and ensure uninterrupted movement for pilgrims.
Advisory For Drivers
Authorities have also issued important guidelines for motorists:
Avoid speeding and reckless driving
Follow traffic rules and diversion instructions
Avoid unnecessary honking near Kanwariyas
Remain alert while passing through Kanwar routes
Cooperate with police personnel managing traffic
