The Delhi Police has issued a traffic advisory for Friday concerning the area around the Commonwealth Games Village, which has been designated as a strong room and counting center for the Lok Sabha elections.

In a post on X, the Delhi Traffic Police stated on Thursday, “In view of the Lok Sabha elections, the Commonwealth Games Village is a strong room-cum-counting center. On 24.05.24, from 9 am to 5 pm, a significant movement of buses and other vehicles related to election duties is expected.”

The police advised commuters traveling from Sarai Kale Khan/MGM towards National Highway-24 to proceed straight to Akshardham flyover and take a left turn to reach Pusta Road, ITO, or Vikas Marg.

Those coming from ITO or Pusta Road should proceed to the Akshardham flyover, take a U-turn after crossing it, and then continue on National Highway-24 towards Delhi, the advisory added.
