On the line of Delhi Traffic Police, to ease congestion on city roads caused by movement of heavy vehicles, Noida Traffic Police has planned to restrict entry of such vehicles during the peak hours from July. The Traffic Department has started surveying various routes for this purpose and the final report will be sent to Noida Authority for approval.
Initially, the law enforcement agency is likely to restrict entry on three key routes of Noida: from DND Flyway to Noida, Film City to Sector 60 and Sector 37 to Sector 71. The ban on entry will be imposed between 8 am and 11 am in the morning and between 5.30 pm and 10 pm in the evening. The restriction will not imply on Noida-Greater Noida Expressway.
A senior official of Noida Traffic Police, "Timing of 'no entry' of heavy vehicles to the city, has been decided keeping the restriction in Delhi in mind so that traffic in Noida will not be affected." Delhi Traffic Police do not allow entry of heavy vehicles from 7 am to 11 am and 5 pm to 10 pm from DND Flyway, while 7.30 pm to 10.30 from Chilla Regulator and Kalindi Bridge. “As the traffic load on various roads has registered manifold increase in last few years, smooth vehicular movement has become a tough task these days. With the recent move, we will be able to manage a hassle-free traffic in and around the city,” said MP Singh, SP (Traffic), Gautam Budh Nagar.
