Hyderabad Traffic Advisory: Lakdikapul Diversions, Flood Preparedness
Road work at Lakdikapul in Hyderabad is causing traffic changes.
The city is building a new drain to manage rainwater.
Traffic will be rerouted from June 11th, mainly at night to avoid disrupting too many people.
At the same time, a disaster response team will be watching for floods and cleaning up drainage to keep water moving.
They have removed buildings that were blocking drains.
This will help prevent flooding.
Traffic diversions are in place at Lakdikapul junction in Hyderabad due to stormwater drain construction.
The construction work is being done by the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC).
Traffic diversions affect routes from Nirankari to Iqbal Minar and Ravindra Bharathi to Old Saifabad.
