Modi Mill Flyover Traffic Jam Worsens in Delhi

A major traffic jam formed on the Modi Mill Flyover in South Delhi on Wednesday evening after the closure of the Kalkaji Flyover increased pressure on surrounding roads during ongoing construction work. Long queues of vehicles were reported on the flyover, with traffic moving slowly and commuters facing delays on routes towards Nehru Place, Okhla and Lajpat Nagar.

The disruption is linked to construction work to connect the Kalkaji Flyover with the extension of the Modi Mill Flyover on the Outer Ring Road. The Kalkaji Flyover has been closed for the work, pushing additional traffic onto nearby roads and access routes around Modi Mill.

According to the report by Jagran, vehicles travelling from Modi Mill towards Nehru Place are being diverted through the service lane. Drivers must also cross the traffic signal on Maa Anandmayi Marg, adding another movement point to a route already carrying traffic affected by the flyover closure.

The changed traffic movement has also increased pressure on roads leading towards Okhla and Lajpat Nagar. The resulting queues have affected both vehicles using the flyover and commuters travelling through the surrounding road network. Traffic on the flyover was reported to be crawling during the evening congestion.
