Commuters traveling through the Anupam Bridge corridor in Ahmedabad are advised to plan their journeys carefully as the Ahmedabad Traffic Police has announced temporary traffic restrictions and diversions due to ongoing construction work for the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Project.
The restrictions are being implemented to facilitate launching and dismantling activities related to the high-speed rail corridor. Authorities have stated that the diversions will remain in force only during night hours to minimize inconvenience to daily commuters. The Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train project is one of India’s most ambitious infrastructure initiatives and construction activities continue across multiple locations in Gujarat.
Anupam Bridge Traffic Restriction Schedule
The traffic restrictions will be enforced between 12:00 AM and 6:00 AM on the following dates:
| Date | Time | Work Activity |
|---|---|---|
| June 3, 2026 | 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM | Erection Work |
| June 5, 2026 | 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM | Launching Work |
| June 10, 2026 | 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM | Launching Work |
| June 13, 2026 | 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM | Dismantling Work |
| June 14, 2026 | 12:00 AM – 6:00 AM | Dismantling Work |
During these periods, vehicular movement on and around the Anupam Bridge area will be regulated to ensure public safety and facilitate construction activities.
Alternate Routes for Commuters
Traffic authorities have provided alternate routes to help motorists avoid congestion and reach their destinations smoothly.
Diversion Route for Vehicles Heading Towards Kankaria Bridge (Anupam Bridge)
| Closed/Restricted Route | Alternate Route |
| Towards Kankaria Bridge (Anupam Bridge) | Kangaroo Circle (Maharana Pratap Circle) → Madrasi Mandir Road → Jagadiya Bridge → Dedki Garden |
| Vehicles from nearby eastern corridors | Follow designated diversion signage via Jagadiya Bridge corridor |
| Heavy and medium vehicles | Use notified diversion roads through Maharana Pratap Circle and adjoining connector routes |
The diversion plan will apply to two-wheelers, cars, and medium and heavy vehicles during the restriction period. Traffic personnel will be deployed at key junctions to guide motorists.
Impact on Daily Commuters
The temporary restrictions are expected to affect traffic movement in the Kankaria, Maninagar, and eastern Ahmedabad areas during late-night and early-morning hours. However, since the closures are scheduled overnight, authorities expect minimal disruption to regular daytime traffic.
Residents, commercial vehicle operators, and logistics companies are advised to account for possible delays and use alternate routes wherever possible.
Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train Project Continues to Progress
The Mumbai-Ahmedabad High-Speed Rail Corridor remains one of India’s largest transportation infrastructure projects. Multiple construction activities, including bridge launches, segment installation, and viaduct construction, are underway across Gujarat and Maharashtra.
Recent project milestones in Ahmedabad include the completion of several steel bridges and continued progress on corridor construction. Officials say these temporary traffic restrictions are necessary to ensure safe and timely execution of the project.
Advisory for Motorists
Ahmedabad Traffic Police has urged motorists to:
- Follow diversion signage and traffic personnel instructions.
- Avoid the Anupam Bridge corridor during restriction hours.
- Leave early if traveling through eastern Ahmedabad during the notified dates.
- Use GPS navigation updates and official traffic advisories.
- Exercise caution near construction zones.
The temporary traffic restrictions at Anupam Bridge are part of ongoing efforts to accelerate construction of the Mumbai-Ahmedabad Bullet Train project. While the diversions may cause minor inconvenience during late-night hours, the measures are intended to ensure public safety and support the development of India’s first high-speed rail corridor.
Motorists are encouraged to stay updated with official traffic advisories and utilize alternate routes to avoid delays during the notified dates.
