Bengaluru choked from post-Diwali traffic congestion | People raise questions

Bengaluru: The tech city grapples with traffic congestion in many areas after the end of the Diwali weekend. Thousands of vehicles returning after a long Diwali weekend created congestion points in many routes across the city. The stretch between Sira and Bengaluru has been affected significantly by this congestion.

The traffic speed in many areas was reduced to 10 km/h due to the formation of choke points across the region. The areas particularly affected by this include Majestic, Mysore Road, Old Madras Road, and Goraguntepalya. The traffic queues in many areas stretched from three to five kilometres causing great inconvenience to the people. The areas like Hebbal and Manyata Tech Park also experienced slow-moving traffic, as per a report by Bengaluru Mirror.

In the report, a two-wheeler commuter named Nikshith said that after Deepavali festival, he travelled from Hassan to Bengaluru. From Nelamangala to Goraguntepalya it took him one hour while from Hassan to Nelamangala which are 140 kilometres away took him just 2 hours.

People raise questions on social media

A person on social media platform wrote, “From Hubballi to Chitradurga (220 km) it took me 3 hrs & after that next 210 km took 6 hrs. Started around 3 PM & reached at midnight.”

Many users tagged Nitin Gadkari, Road Transport and Highways Minister of India, and urged him to sort out different problems of Bengaluru transportation. A user wrote “This has become common scenario from last couple of months because of lot of diversion. We are paying the toll for the diversions, pot hole roads & no proper facilities at toll @nitin_gadkari get it inspected, not seeing any progress in work on the stretch of Hubli to Bengaluru”

Another user wrote, “There are 3 spots with diversions where the alternate road is very poorly maintained, it has been a problem for over 18 months, with no lessons learnt.@NHAI_Official @nitin_gadkari @OfficeOfNG this causes huge pile up of traffic towards Bangalore on holidays. Do something.”
