Saralnama

In Bhopal, 13 traffic signals between Ratnagiri Tiraha and Bhadbhada Square will be removed for the Metro Blue Line construction. This 13 km stretch includes busy junctions like Roshanpura and Prabhat Square. Manual traffic management will be implemented during construction, potentially causing jams at peak hours. Soil testing is underway at 550 locations for the ₹1006 crore project. The removal of signals may affect traffic flow at key points connecting old and new city areas. Traffic police will need to monitor the situation closely. Commuters should plan alternate routes to avoid congestion during the construction period. (Updated 24 Oct 2025, 04:50 IST; source: link)
