Additional personnel will be deployed in the Central Range to regulate movement and guide commuters to parking areas at Rajghat, DMRC lots and the railway parking area opposite Lok Nayak Jai Prakash (LNJP) Hospital. A separate passage will be provided near LNJP Hospital for emergency vehicles.
Bus movement may also be regulated on Bahadur Shah Zafar Marg, the Rajghat-JLN Marg stretch, DBG Road and Minto Road. Passengers travelling to New Delhi Railway Station have been advised to plan journeys in advance.
