Traffic Diversion Plan Takes Effect from November 25 for Flyover Work
Key Points:
- Heavy vehicles banned between Mango Chowk and Pardih Chowk until December 24
- School buses allowed special access from 6-8 AM near Big Hanuman Temple
- Light vehicles to follow time-based route changes via Road Number 15
JAMSHEDPUR – Construction work on the Mango flyover and Subarnarekha River bridge has prompted major traffic diversions from November 25 to December 24.
Traffic police have issued new route guidelines. The changes aim to facilitate smooth vehicle movement. Construction of the down ramp toward Azadnagar requires these modifications.
Heavy vehicles face complete restrictions between Mango Chowk and Pardih Chowk. Large vehicles heading from Pardih toward Mango will be diverted. They must take the Dimna Chowk route instead.
School buses received special consideration from authorities. However, these vehicles can travel only during morning hours. Moreover, the traffic police have designated 6-8 AM as permitted time.
Big Hanuman Temple to Mango Chowk allows school buses. Meanwhile, entry from Mango toward Pardih remains closed. In contrast, normal traffic resumes after 8 AM daily.
The restrictions continue until next morning at 6 AM. On the other hand, movement from Big Hanuman Temple stays prohibited. Besides, these rules apply throughout the construction period.
Light vehicles must follow time-specific routes too. From 6-8 AM, they can use Road Number 15. Furthermore, these vehicles may proceed via Sahara City route.
After 8 AM, the path changes for smaller vehicles. They must take Chepa Bridge and Old Purulia Road. Additionally, this arrangement continues until 6 AM next day.
Mango Municipal Corporation conducted awareness campaigns on Tuesday. Officials used public announcement systems across affected areas. They informed residents about the new traffic regulations.
Corporation representatives explained the temporary nature of changes. Vehicle operators received appeals for cooperation with new routes. In addition, footpath vendors got advice too.
Authorities urged shopkeepers to clear pedestrian pathways. The measure aims to prevent roadside congestion. Moreover, officials emphasized avoiding traffic jam situations.
The flyover construction project requires uninterrupted progress during this period. Work on the down ramp represents a critical phase. Besides, completion depends on maintaining construction momentum.
Traffic management plans account for peak hours carefully. Morning school timings influenced the 6-8 AM window. Furthermore, the arrangement balances construction needs with public convenience.
Old Purulia Road serves as an alternative corridor now. Dimna Chowk route handles diverted heavy vehicle traffic. Meanwhile, Chepa Bridge provides relief for light vehicles.
The one-month timeline allows significant construction progress. December 24 marks the scheduled end of restrictions. However, normal traffic patterns will resume after that date.
