Noida Traffic Advisory LIVE Update: Traffic movement across parts of Noida and adjoining areas was severely affected after protests by industrial workers turned violent over the past three days. Authorities have issued a traffic advisory and urged commuters to plan their travel carefully as multiple stretches continue to witness congestion and diversions.
Traffic Diverted On These Routes In Noida
The traffic police said diversions have been implemented on Pari Chowk Road, Sandeep Paper Mill Road, and at the first cut on the route from Sector 62 roundabout towards the NIB Police Post.
In a tweet, Noida Police said traffic moving from Chilla Border towards Mahamaya Flyover and from Mahamaya Flyover towards DND Toll/Chilla Border (towards Delhi) has been diverted. Commuters have been advised to use alternate routes for smoother travel. Traffic has also been diverted on the Rajnigandha Chowk route.
According to police, thousands of workers took to the streets in several areas of Phase II and other industrial sectors, intensifying their agitation. The situation escalated in Sector 84, where protesting workers allegedly set two vehicles on fire. Demonstrations also spread to Sector 62, leading to heavy traffic snarls.
The Noida Police said adequate deployment has been ensured across industrial zones, with senior police and administrative officials present on the ground to monitor the situation. Efforts are underway to pacify the workers and restore normalcy. “Workers are being urged to maintain peace and restraint. Necessary action is being taken, and minimum force is being used to control the situation,” the police said, also advising the public not to pay attention to rumours.
Noida Traffic Helpline Number
As part of traffic management, vehicles are being diverted at the first cut on the route from the Sector 62 roundabout towards the NIB Police Post. Authorities have also shared a traffic helpline number (9971009001) for assistance.
Meanwhile, commuters reported massive traffic jams near the Crown Plaza flyover in Mayur Vihar, adding to the chaos in the National Capital Region.
The protests come despite a meeting held a day earlier between district officials, police, and the industrial authority, where assurances were reportedly given to address workers’ demands. However, with tensions still high, traffic disruptions are expected to continue until the situation is fully brought under control.
