Traffic Restrictions on Ikea-Cyber Towers-JNTU Stretch
There was a big hole in the road between Ikea and Cyber Towers in Hyderabad.
The hole happened because water leaked from a pipe underground and made the ground weak.
The police have closed that part of the road and are fixing it.
They are telling people to take different roads until the fix is done.
The repair work is finished, but the road needs some time to dry before it can be used again.
People are not using the road much right now because of holidays, so it's a good time to fix it.
Traffic restrictions imposed on Ikea-Cyber Towers-JNTU stretch due to road cave-in.
Road cave-in caused by leakage in underground Manjeera water supply pipeline.
Traffic diverted from Lemon Tree Hotel and Raidurgam Metro Station via Tech Mahindra to CII Junction.
Repair work completed, road undergoing curing period.
Expected to reopen after Sankranti holidays.
