The city traffic police have announced a traffic diversion plan near Pul Bogda due to the construction of a new metro station under the Bhopal Metro Rail Project. The diversion will be in effect from May 28 to June 27 to ensure public safety during the ongoing work.
Heavy and medium vehicles, along with buses, will face complete road closures on two main routes: from Prabhat Square to Bharat Talkies via Pul Bogda, and from Prabhat Square to Jinsi Dharm Kanta and Maida Mill via Pul Bogda. Light vehicles and two-wheelers will have one side of the road closed on the stretch from Pul Bogda to Shiv Mandir Road, in front of Jinsi.
