Traffic advisory for the affected duration:
Meanwhile, in anticipation of the disruption, authorities have put several measures in place to facilitate smoother traffic flow during this period. Motorists are urged to take note of the key diversion points:
- From Bio-Diversity Junction to IIIT Junction: Drivers traveling from Bio-Diversity towards IIIT Junction should avoid the Gachibowli flyover and instead use the alternate route via Bichareddy Sweets (Telecom Nagar) to reach Gachibowli Junction, before proceeding to IIIT Junction.
- From IIIT Junction to Bio-Diversity Junction: Similarly, those coming from IIIT Junction heading towards Bio-Diversity must also bypass the Gachibowli flyover, opting for the adjacent route through Gachibowli Junction.
The traffic police advise all commuters to plan their travel routes accordingly and allow extra time for their journeys during the construction hours to minimize delays.
