BRICS: Check traffic advisory for Delhi

Delhi residents will experience the impact of the BRICS Summit beyond just diplomatic events, as traffic restrictions could lead to longer commutes. Over 35 roads will see delays, with major impact on routes connecting Noida, east Delhi, central areas, Dwarka, Dhaula Kuan, and IGI Airport. VVIP movements may cause temporary stoppages, pushing traffic onto already busy roads and causing congestion well beyond the controlled corridor.

Traffic police have advised shifting the delegation's accommodation closer to central Delhi to minimize traffic impact. Complainants are urged to adhere to designated parking facilities and obey traffic personnel instructions.
