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.

The police requested commuters to cooperate by avoiding the specified roads and using public transport as much as possible.

Travellers heading to ISBTs, railway stations, or airports have been advised to plan their journeys meticulously, ensuring ample time for any unforeseen delays, the police said.
