Ahmedabad Bridge Built to Ease Traffic Now Worsens Congestion

The bridge, inaugurated earlier this year, was designed to divert traffic from the congested city centre. However, reports indicate that the new crossing has led to increased congestion on adjoining roads. Traffic officials say that the expected relief has not materialised, and commuters are facing longer travel times. Investigations are underway to understand the cause of the unexpected traffic patterns. The bridge’s impact on the city’s traffic flow is a growing concern for residents and city planners.
