Gridlock no more at Ahmedabad’s Pirana Junction! The traffic police have ingeniously removed signals, converting this construction-cursed chokepoint into a breezy passage. What was once a commuter’s curse is now a model of efficiency.
The tweak is simple yet brilliant: Block the Pirana People’s Road cut and guide traffic to a 100-meter-advanced U-turn on Narol-Sarkhej Road. Result? Non-stop movement that bypasses the old bottlenecks entirely.
Residents can’t stop raving. ‘Jams ate up our days; now it’s smooth sailing,’ beamed Sajid. Fellow local Sachin Desani chimed in, ‘No more daily standoffs—the forward U-turn has cleared the path perfectly.’
This innovation boosts bridge building pace and spares drivers time and petrol. Traffic chief DCP Naresh Kanjaria highlighted, ‘Sealing the cut promotes disciplined progression, curbing jams effectively.’
Success here paves the way for signal-free upgrades on other major arteries. Led by CM Bhupendra Patel, the push for elevated roads and rapid transit systems signals a new era of hassle-free mobility in Ahmedabad.
