Indore's metro construction is causing road space shortages and traffic headaches. The MP Metro Rail Corporation has ramped up traffic management but commuters are already feeling the squeeze.

This has led to traffic jams and congestion, creating daily headaches for motorists.
MPMRCL's Managing Director, S Krishna Chaitanya, inspected construction sites recently, emphasizing the need for effective traffic diversions and safety measures in busy areas like Bada Ganpati and Rajwada.
